Gunsmithing Tactiballs Bolt knob!!!

[PETEJRV]

Hey everyone! Jered from American precision Arms sent me one of his new hunting rifles in .300WM today for load work. After thoroughly examining this fine specimen of a rifle we at Cor-Bon all agreed there was something missing so we made some modifications and this was the result.

The new and improved Tactiballs bolt knob from yours truly CorBon's Custom Shop!
AND NO WE WILL NOT MAKE YOU ONE!!

Just as tacky as when I see them on the back of trucks...

Yes I know but we were fresh out of nut sack pink.

Tactical satchel, nice. It's win-win, he ought to already have a good feel for manipulating the bolt and the ladies will love it.

You like rolling a nicely formed ballsack around in the palm of your hand, do you?

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

It took some balls to do that.

If you send it back to Jared like that I'd say you have a set, chrome plated of course

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

My only comment would be I hope you didn't make the mold personally.

Besides that it's going to need some chamfers on the edge.

I'm not sure what the writer will think but I'm pretty sure it will get noticed.

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

Jarod's right, C'mon Pete, chamfer your balls!

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

Do they get that many wrinkles when you get old?

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

Well Chad I would go to counseling but my counselor hung her self ten minutes after our last session

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

The faster you work your balls, the smoother they get....

 

[ggmanning]

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

Manipulation of the tactical balls causes variations in barrel stiffness that is averse to consistent grouping.

SICK, SICK, SICK.....

Hmm, having Dixon do some mods to the wifes new .22 stick....I wonder

 

[GUNNER75]

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

I'd sanblast those balls and lather em up with a little color! Easy on the sandblast!

 

[Jered Joplin]

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

I didn't think about the barrel stiffening issue. That could seriously cause an AD. Use extreme caution in your wind tunnel today. I'd recommend that you do it personally because no one runs a bolt like Rossie.

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

I see you guys selected the shaved set...were the hairy ones too distracting when you cycled the bolt?

You should sell balls match ammo with a free sack handle in every box

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

One thing I know for sure is that if you pluck a hair while firing you WILL throw a flier. Shaved is the only way to go!

[tomme boy]

Re: Tacticals Bolt knob!!!

Looks like you were really polishing them. Real smooth!

 

[eddief]

Re: Tactiballs Bolt knob!!!

Who did the polishing...what's her name?

 

[TitaniumBlue]

Re: Tactiballs Bolt knob!!!

Doesn't look like you can safely get a good grip on it. Any plans for adding some texture? You know, something like......strings? But really thin.
