120-18 is in stock. Tim had several sets at IRCHA hanging on the display for sale.
I drilled my grips out to accept the 5mm bolts. You will need a set of numbered drill bits. Just start at the bit that will go thru the 4 mm hole and then use the few bits to ream it out. Measure the diameter of the bolt shank and make the hole in the grip the same size. A 5mm bolt is not actually 5 mm in diameter but it is a few thousands of an inch less. You want the bolt to fit snuggly thru the hole in the grip.

I have drilled a few sets of grips and several sets of blades with no problems. Just step up a few thousands at a time with the bits. I use 3 bits of different sizes to ream the grips and then 3 bits of different sizes to ream the blades. Don't force the bit and let it find its own way when drilling. Your not cutting but a half mm of material total from the sides of the hole.
