It was preput together like this in the wrapper. looks like it was all put together already, are they shipping that way now? I also don't see the black bipod mount hanging off it.

Also anyone know where to find the installation instructions? Want to make sure I torque it right in the right order.
 
Re: Just got my new AICS from Eurooptic!

Proper torque is 69in/lbs and tighten the front first then the back. Which bipod mount are you looking for, the spigot mount is the hole in the front, and the Harris mount is on the bottom of the fore-end under the forward-most skin bolt. It looks like another sling loop.

One thing I did notice was that the knob on the rifle is not running inline with the bolt handle. Why is that? </div></div>


Not sure, that's how the smith put it on when he threaded it. Seems to work okay though.

Not sure if there was an increase in accuracy, more than likely it just allowed me to utilize the accuracy it had with the better, more consistent ergonomics.

Thanks! I agree. I was thinking about getting the barreled action Cerakoted in flat black but worried about it being done wrong, think they'd strip the bolt down before doing it? I dont want to have to break the Cerakote to take the bolt apart.
