Buy recommendations TM-22 Pro Bolt Hold Open
Recently got my hands on a Derya Tm-22 Pro 12" barrel and have almost no issues with it. One thing I dislike is how the only bolt hold open is built into the magazine so when you remove the mag, the bolt closes.
I want a bolt hold open that connects to the safety of the carbine so that when you flick the safety off, it drops the bolt.
Not looking to change out the charging handle as I like the left side charge and don't want to spend $250 on a kit I don't even really want (Alex Homebrew bolt hold open)
I've done a very poor drawing here to show what I mean. Does anyone make anything like I'm describing? Or am I gonna have to buy a 3D printer and start experimenting?

I did make something like this check my older post, only works with factory handle though and also this doesn't fit in a letter mail so need to pay full shipping

Honestly wasn't sure if you'd do a one off or not. I'd happily but one off of you as it looks like the best thing on the market for what I want. Any idea what we would be looking at for price and shipping?

give me a day I'll list it in my shop, probably bundle with a extended charging handle to make sure it works

I like this idea! I'll see if I can make it happen. Send me a DM. First one is your free if I can make it work.

Alex's Homebrew makes a manual bolt hold open but you do need to but their charging handle kit for it to work. I would generally consider the charging handle kit one of those upgrades that you should definitely get fwiw, and the hold-open kit isn't that much on top.
