Rick does the Badger, CyberK does a nice one and also Casey at Tactical Ordnance does a really nice one he makes himself.
We had some made up last year and somehow "lost" them all during the move. We are still working on finding a shop to make some more for us. We can machine a "one off" version for anyone interested, but we don't have stock on them right now. We are also now, finally, set up to do installs.

We also stock DD Ross, Tactical Inovations as well as Badger. And as soon as we can write the programs will be turning out our own.

To install one of these, is it just a matter of cutting off the factory knob and then treading the shaft of the bolt handle. or do you have to machine then tread the bolt handle?
The best way is to have it machined and threaded.
The "not so" best way is to grind/file it round and thread it.
Both ways are effective and work fine. Both ways are really easy to screw up if you don't know what you are doing. Just remember, once the material is gone, it is really hard to put it back.
If you go to the Badger site, you can download the installation instructions. With those dimensions in hand you can decide whether or not you want to tackle it. As I've mentioned here before, I will never try to discourage someone from trying something on their own, that is how we learn. Just be willing to accept the consequences if you screw it up.

I'ld love to see some pics of the custom ones manufactured by various vendors on here (other than the Badger Ord one). Makes it easier to decide who to go with for me......
