Mosin sniper bolt handle modifications

[weekender365]

Hey guys, I've got a partially sporterized Mosin that I bought recently. and I was thinking of ruining it a bit more by adding one of the rock solid scope mounts sold by Westrifle. The only problem is, you have to alter your bolt handle to give it the butter knife style profile in order for the handle to clear the mount properly. Does anyone know anyone who knows how to do a good job of this, preferably in southern Ontario? Thanks.

If that is the rifle you bought in the pic a dremel will finish out what you need to clear, then polish.
Shame somebody altered an M39 though. They are worth more original and very few of them in the world.

EHG, no that is just a stock picture I pulled off the web. My bolt handle needs to be bent and formed.

No one knows how to mod a Mosin in Canada? k.

I think the stock mosin bolt handles are to short to just bend. But a number of places offer replacement bolts that are threaded. So you just cut off the old handle, tap the bolt, and screw in the new one. Usually I silver solder them in as well. Then a little filing and sanding, and your done.

Thanks guys, but I should have mentioned that I don't want the bolt-on ATI kit.
My Mosin actually doesn't have a standard bolt handle, it's already got a customized bent handle.
I can't attach my own pic because I'm a noob but here's basically what it looks like.
