Thank you very much! I was looking over the bolt head this morning again and I believe it looks unaltered, but I have burned myself before making similar assumptions. Bubba knows no bounds when it comes to butchering...
As an aside, I did a little work cleaning her this morning and I must say the bluing is pretty damn good for a 114 year old rifle. Very happy overall so far.
I have also reached out to EFD to see what they have available. I have a funny feeling that this is going to turn in to a much more to extensive project than I previously intended, but isn't that how it goes?
Here are some photos of one of my Mk I*** bolt heads, as promised.
Unfortunately I believe the gentleman who ran EFD passed away a couple of years ago. It would make restorations so much easier if resources like him were still around.
