golf ball on bolt handle
Anyone know how to get a golfball mounted on an Anschutz Bolthandle? I seen it done and thought it was quite funny!
Re: golf ball on bolt handle
Depending on which bolt handle you have and how long and throw angle it can be pretty easy or pretty hard.
The "simple" way is to already have a bolt handle that will allow for the bolt to be closed with a large diameter object as a golf ball (like the 1907). Assuming that yours is as such. You can quite easily drill into a golf ball with a press and a vblock round vice. I would suggest a very small pilot hole then a progressive bit.
Once done you can test seat a nut to the diameter of the hole with the appropriate threading for your handle. Then a two stage epoxy to seat and hold the nut in place, 24-48 hours to cure, and you are done.
Be very careful that the epoxy does not get in the threads, make sure that you DO NOT let it cure on the gun. Also note that depedning on yoru guns setup, you may increas the weight past the allowed limit.

A NOTE ON GOLFBALL CONSTRUCTION
they are full of little strips of rubberband like material, be VERY careful when drilling into them. otherwise, good luck, ive always wanted to make a bolt handle that looked like an olive, but that would be far more appropriate on a BSA Martini which unfortunately dont have said handle
good luck, happy golfing
