Sterk Sako Quad Swept Ball Bolt Handles IN STOCK!

[Aries64]

Hello folks -

Sterk has their excellent Swept Ball Bolt Handle for the Quad in stock right now, so if you're interested email Jon Van der Pol at [email protected] to secure your's before this batch runs-out. As of 5/1 he had 17 in stock, but who knows when the next batch will be made after these run-out.

For those unfamiliar with Sterk's Quad Swept Ball Bolt Handle, the Handle is machined from 431 Stainless while the Adapter and the Ball are machined from T6 6061 aluminum. It has to be the most highly engineered, well-executed rimfire bolt handle assembly ever designed. The machining, fit, and finish are flawless but the money is the way the Swept Ball feels in-hand and enhances bolt manipulation. But enough fluff.

Do you have to modify the stock for the swept bolt handle from standard?

Not at all. The Bolt Handle angle mirrors the factory Bolt Handle until it clears the stock before it curves (sweeps) aft. The way it fits, it looks like an OEM part.

Nah, that just means you have excellent taste in rimfires and scopes! Beautiful Quad, BTW. It looks like your A5 has the KMW ACH, too. The A5 with KMW ACH and 10" Anschutz Rail is my favorite McMillan stock, but my SE came with the A3 w/KMW ACH (which I sent back to McMillan to add the 10" Anschutz Rail and a pair of LS Flush Cups. I'd love to have an A5 KMW ACH, but I can't see spending another $1,000.00+ for another stock + bedding.

What number is your SE? Mine is #6.

It’s kind of hard to see but it’s #4 my picture taking skills are lacking.

Your photo skills are fine, and I can see the "4 of 49" fine too. Again, beautiful Quad and excellent scope!

Thanks for the reply. I have tried a couple of times and also the facebook page but no answer. I suspect he is not operating this business anymore..

I also had no luck getting a hold of sterk last year (which is odd because several years ago he was very responsive to emails when I ordered some Tikka parts.) I had about given up until I noticed Euro Optic had 10 in stock, so I bought 2 for both of my quads.

They're out of stock now, but the website says they can be backordered... you may want to check with Euro Optic to see if they have any on order with Sterk (if they've been able to get a hold of them) and when they expect them in.

I did email Eurooptic a month ago, they do have a number on backorder with Sterk but said they had no idea if or when they were going to arrive. Ill chase them up in a couple of months, will let this page know if they arrive.

Not sure what's going on with Sterk exactly. Last time he posted on this forum was about a year ago, and his user profile doesn't show the last date he was logged in. Both his Instagram and Facebook pages look like they haven't been updated in over a year as well.

But if Euro says they have some on order, maybe they have a way of getting in touch... keep your fingers crossed. I figured I was never going to be able to buy them since Sterk wasn't returning my emails or PMs, but then that batch showed up on Euro Optic.

Thanks i'll keep checking!
