An AX mag is what you will receive with the rifle, and they are slightly more secure due to the front lip...but AW mags (from your AT) will fit and work just fine.

I was thinking about German Flecktarn
Ai ax mags are what you use in it. All the mags with part numbers 6677 are the mag you have. Some have other characters with the part number and that designates the color of the mag only.
Having run AX mags in the AX for quite a while I can attest that there is no discernible difference in running them with 308 parent based cartridges. If you are running 6BR parent case cartridges I would use AX for the additional support up front. Just my personal experience. Yours may differ.
Additionally, the AW mags will move if loaded into something or sitting on top of a bag. The AX mags lock up tight.

They told us in the USA that it does not come with that or a bag rider that those are extras.
So where is the stock hinge at? Of all the extra stuff i could really use one of these as im getting tired of fing around with the cheek riser all the time.
The accessory rail with flush cup is not included with the AT-X and the butt spacers are also not included.

You know you have a winner when you can sell a rifle that you can’t even attach a sling to it or clean it conveniently without having to pay a premium for additional parts and accessories.
And I still bought one!!!
Congratulations Tom

So mine is feeling a bit front heavy. It balances about 3 keyholes from the magwell. Just added the brake mount and supressor (wouldn't want @Huskydriver to think I'm uncivilized) so I imagine that is going to increase. Has anyone else 'solved' this. Its not really a problem, I just read about everyone bragging about balance and with the barricade stop at the magwel, trying to bring the center of gravity back a little bit.
Maybe as I get better this isn't really a problem.

Have you mounted a Vortex Razor yet ?
ZCO scrub. Be poor in another thread.Have you mounted a Vortex Razor yet ?
I will eventually. Its not a huge issue especially with the "keymod" system--I know its not keymod technically but you get the drift.
Plus seriously on the cleaning? Allen wrench and go? Its not THAT bad.
I thought all the poors were using gun carts at matches now anyway and the non poors were paying Sherpas?
Well, really, it’s just the hilarity of it.
I look at my other AI’s, my desert tech, customs in McMillan and Foundation stocks, basically every rifle I’ve ever owned and they all have the basics to mount a sling, picatinny bipod etc included in the purchase price.
Yet AI get to bring this well thought out and exciting new rifle to the market with the standard features excluded, but offered as add ons, and yet it’s sold out and guys are lined up to buy them.
It’s in no way a deal breaker for me
I just find it kind of funny.

Someone who does more with their rifle than pick it up, walk 5 feet and plunk it down on a barricade.

Look it’s the at-x hinge on the new ai tikka chassis
That’s not the hinge. That’s an actual ASR stock on it. Gonna be a lot of pissed off people if that comes with he chassis but not the actual rifle.Watch this story by Accuracy International on Instagram before it disappears.

Oh? The other thing we were promised that would come out for the at-x?That’s not the hinge. That’s an actual ASR stock on it. Gonna be a lot of pissed off people if that comes with he chassis but not the actual rifle.
They went with the “Gen 2” rather than just give us the thumb screws.
I’m not mad they’ll charge us extra, I’m mad we’ll have to wait.
Exactly! I don’t mind paying it. I just want it now. Hahaha
Will all of us waiting for a rifle in “Batch 2” get the thumbscrews? The suspense is killing me….

Fastest Gen 2 ever. 10 minutes later the Gen 2 became Gen 3
GEN 3 comes with the pictured bag rider!Fastest Gen 2 ever. 10 minutes later the Gen 2 became Gen 3
Very keen to hear more about the Tikka chassis.
Might finally be able to get an AI in 223, well look like an AI atleast....

Gen 3 comes with everything that is pictured in Gen one that you thought you were getting but only found out that you weren’t getting after you bought and paid for it.
Gen 3 extends and Gen 2 doesn’t. Duh.
Gen 5 will come with a (rotating) QD flush cup on the forend.
Ummm..the Gen 1 extends. Like a dumbass, I added spacers to the rifle (had extra ones from my AI-AT) without even thinking about it, and then put it up in the gun rack. As I was sitting at my desk in my office, I looked over at the rack, and saw the two screws on the buttstock. Well shit. Got out a wrench, and sure enough, it extends. So, took the spacers back off.
We’re joking around at AI’s expense since we’ve been waiting for the guns and accessories. To be fair, they did estimate EOY 2021 when they did their livestream—but it looks they had the hinges and asr stocks done for a while.
It’s a prototype and we used whichever parts we had in order to test it. The Tikka AICS versions are not yet ready for sale but will be after we complete testing. This is only a month away.That’s not the hinge. That’s an actual ASR stock on it. Gonna be a lot of pissed off people if that comes with he chassis but not the actual rifle.
The Tikka, REM 700 and AT-X Gen 3 rears will all have a thumbscrew adjustment for cheek piece and LOP. An example is on show.

The second production AT-X in the USA will have the same rear as the first production.Will all of us waiting for a rifle in “Batch 2” get the thumbscrews? The suspense is killing me….
It will be the third production run which has the thumbscrews. That is not the only change. It is a completely new rear end and is also compatible with the AICS versions just being released or about to be released.

The new thumbscrew adjustable rear is compatible with the first two production standards. We wanted to get the AT-X into production as early as possible and the first designs had the rear with two screws for cheek piece and LOP.
All AT-X rifles and AICS is easily fitted with a hinge which can be ordered now as an aftermarket accessory.

Any word on the price point for the chassis? And availability on the 700 model since you only mentioned the Tikka version?
So, do I have this correct? I ordered an AT-X last year, paid in full in advance (EO), still haven’t received the rifle, ordered and paid for a hinge still on backorder (EO). And now you are introducing a new updated 3rd generation AT-X before fulfilling your current orders. Wow, I thought only Sig did this kind of stuff. Oh well, I will still be excited to get the rifle. I just feel a little duped.
