Don't listen to people that say you don't need more guns and ammo. No one needs that kind of negativity in their lives!!
Re: Bolt jeweling
I don't, but is this for cosmetics or function?

I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

Re: Bolt jeweling
My understanding of getting a bolt jeweled is that it is functional in that it holds lubricant a little better and looks fancy, too. I think it's also been used to cover up/remove slight pitting, etc. in restorations. I've never had it done, but considered it on a Mauser project I did, and an old sporterized Swedish Mauser carbine I acquired came with the bolt jeweled. It's basic gunsmith work, any good smith should be able to do it.

Re: Bolt jeweling
You could do it yourself, but it is extremely time consuming and risky, here is an interesting thread.

Well, i emailed them. They said it will have zero effect on the warranty.

Don't know if you've already found a source.
I've used Baldwin Jeweling (https://www.baldwinboltjeweling.com/home.html) for a number of bolts including my BB 357. Great work, reasonable price, fast turnaround.

Never owned one, but it does look nice, & I can see the lube thing.
