I am currently looking into upgrades to my army, and one of them, is giving sergents bolters.
However, the only bolter model i Can find is the catachans bolter model. Anyone have any suggestions as to where i Can find a proper model, or Maybe which things I'll need to convert say, a marine bolter?

There was a bolter bit in the Catachan command box but nothing else recent comes to mind.

I'd just slap on Marine bolters frankly. Maybe 2nd edition ones if you can find them since they're smaller.

Use space marine scout bolters or even just the scouts with a head swap. Shouldn't matter too much if their gear has a slightly different look to it because they're special sergeants.

I did think about using marine bolters (we have a "couple" of those easy space smarine assemble sprues in the game store I work in), though I'd need to do some polishing on its hands, as it would look like a marines hand, and I need something with a human hand.

I've used a Tigris pattern bolter from FW before now, it's much more guard friendly, still a little large but not too bad, only problem can be getting left hands to hold them.

you can also convert bolters from the hellguns that the plastic militarum tempestus ... [or whatever the stupid name is] kit has.

Those Tigris pattern bolters looks really interesting, and with some cutting, I could make them fit,
As well, with those combat blades, I can get a good "veteran Sergent"-look.
