Bolt Knob help>

[nexttime]

Recently ordered 2 bolt knobs from Badger Ordinance for a Rem 45 build and a Rem CF . My original thought was to do them myself using a Dremal and such. Having 2nd thoughts now and was wondering if someone could recommend a smith that I could send them to that has a quick turn around time as well as top quality workmanship?

I'm not a big fan of the Badger knobs, I've seen several that resulted in breaking the silver solder. I do not know if the soldered joint was bad from the factory, maybe not bad bad but not up to taking the extra leverage after adding the bolt handle plus the gorillia working it. Or the installer got the joint too hot from grinding the bolt handle down to install it. Luckily none of the ones I seen were the ones I did.

PM me if you can't find anyone else..
