Hello All I have a question about a sniper bolt for a MNone proff I can't find anything on is a "S" it is stamped on the bolt where the handle comes out and bends down. Is anyone familiar with this??

I could be off here...........
There used to be a guy that would take standard bolts and add to them and bend them down.
He was called "the bolt guy" or "Bolt Man"
I THINK he used to mark them underneath with a "S" (for "sniper")? Maybe a "B". Just don't remember now.
It was to distinguish his bolt as being "after market".
Joke was at the time, maybe it should have been a "BS" for "Boltman Sniper".

It was a long time ago and I'm not even sure if he is around any more.
So basically, anything he did was "after market" (or fake as some call it).

This might be from that guy, he's selling this MN stuff for a recently departed father
