Anschutz 1727 APR

Looks like a pretty sweet rifle not sure I understand the AICS magazines though, maybe there are limitations with the ordinary 1727/1710 magazine that are hard to overcome.

I like the look of the steel forend version, and it’d nice to see they went with a decently heavy profile barrel.
The base rifle (with steel forend) is around 17lb which is nice you don’t need to go and buy a tonne of weights for it.

Here's a picture of the standard vs competition version. The second image (with black forend) is the solid steel version.
Barrel dimensions 22in x ~1.10 (28mm)

Hey gents,
If you are thinking of one of these in the future, you may want to act. I spoke with A.N.A. today. They are only getting 6 of these rifles out of the first production run. I got on the list for one so maybe 5 left. I inquired about the “Gas Pedal” which is the thumb assist lever on the bolt.
They are trying to get those shipped in too, and I have been told it’s a super easy installation. I want one for my 1727F in the ATX chassis.
I’d cancel my order if I could find someone that has the expertise to mill out the ATX for RimX mags. I think that would be great for my personal taste.
 
M18X1.0 muzzle threads…

While I truly believe that is a superior thread size for suppressors (especially for rimfire applications), it’s a tough sell here in the US. Maybe the ones imported here will be 1/2X28, but I didn’t see that anywhere.

It's a tough sell anywhere, the standard RF thread sizes are always 1/2x28 or 1/2x20. But I imagine it's more there for tuners rather than a suppressor.

I guess they didn't want to counter bore the muzzle like they usual do, so just use went for the biggest thread practical.

In my opinion this is how it should have always been, the only time 1/2”-5/8” muzzle threads are acceptable are for pencil thin barrels. But that is just like my opinion man…
