1) I have bent about thirty 98 Mauser bolts, and one 96. 2) I have had one Brownell's bought cast bolt TIG welded on a 98. 3) I have had one 98 and six 91/30 get an extension TIG welded on. This has cost me $15 in the past, but now will cost me $40 in the future. Because of me reading this forum, I got around to trying the TIG weld process for 98s. I am now convinced that I like the longer bolt handles I can get from welding. I could buy my own TIG welder for $2k, but I would need to do 40 bolts to break even, and I only need about 25 done in the near future. I could re do some old bent bolts to be longer.

I milled out some Weaver bar stock [old Tapco AR15 riser] for a hex 91/30 reciever M39. It was a loose fit, but I glassed them together. How did yours fit?

I like the picture. Get a barrel.
