Not at all what he is looking for. Jeweling the bolt body, not checkering the bolt knob.

Aloha,

If you do get the bolt jewelled, be aware that it must be oiled or cared for more than a regular blued bolt.

If you live in a humid area, it may have a tendency to Rust more since all surface treatment has been removed.

All my bolt rifles are left in normal finish or blued.

Here is an exammple of a jeweled Beretta 96(40SW) barrel and the gun it's in.

Aloha,

Thank You.

If you thought mine is nice, you should see the Wife's Berettas.

Her's are more rare presentation limited editions that she shoots.

Aloha winnie,

I did Not post any photos of her guns.

If you want I will.

Maybe they should have their own topic rather than distract from this?

Let me know what you all think.

If so, which part of the forum would be best for it?
