What height Spuhr is that mate? I’m probably going to put same scope on mine if ever comes ( colour black & in Australia) Do you plan on putting forend rail on top? Not sure if 1.35” or 1.5” be needed? Cheers

This is the model 4001 so 1.181” I believe. There is enough adjustment I’ll probably just get 1.5” in case I ever dabble in NV. Currently no plans for forend rail. If I did it would be the short and mainly for my hand to lay across.

Obviously everyone’s face is different to so maybe it’s not an issue for everyone. But I definitely need to bump to 1.35” at a minimum.

 

[seansmd]

I have the 1.5 and its perfect.

 

[DocRDS]

Anyone put a ZCO using a Spuhr on the ATX yet?

 

[excess]

Not exactly. I have a ZCO and a Spuhr sitting here. Hopefully the ATX will be here mid week next week. I’m starting to worry that my Spuhr will be too low though.

What’s a ZCO? Sounds very inferior…

 

[BuLLet]

I know, we prefer our tascos!

$70 bucks.... not too bad.

Now the wait for the hinge, bridge, and adjustable buttstock!

 

[carlooa]

This is my first AI rifle and it's wonderful: fit, finish, feel, and accuracy. I have one issue though, why the hell is a 4mm hex included in the comb when it only adjusts the comb angle and offset when a 3mm actually adjusts the LOP/comb height? Also, why include the other hexes in the trigger pack but not the 2.5mm to adjust the damn shoe? Did this get overlooked on the manufacturing sprint to deliver the rifles 6 months late?

I also have a stupid question: say someone was stupid enough to buy an AXSR AICS chassis for just the buttstock, I can just take the back end off and attach to the at-x right? If that's the case, why doesn't AI just split the damn things and sell them out?

Last thing, I talked to someone at EO, they said that they're hoping to get those bridges....before year end, no news on the hinge and stock.

How many times do people really use the folder.
It’s mainly for

-taking cool pictures
-transporting (you can just pull the handguard and barrel with the qc system)
-cleaning (you can just pull the barrel with the qc system )

Edit. No qc handguard

folding stock uses for me:

fold it so it fits in the tractor, combine, sprayer better with suppressor on

leave suppressor on with stock folded gun fits in the safe better

Not having to pull your barrel to clean has got to be worth something as far as not having to check zero every time

 

[abn31c]

I'm running a 1.36" Spuhr and I have to remove cheek piece to remove bolt.
Not complaining, but something to note.

 

[3rdfocal]

I like folders when in my eberlestock pack, keeps the stock from sticking up above your head and hitting crap like branches. Fits in a smaller pelican case too: 1 fits width-wise in the back of the jeep, the other requires a seat folded down.

 

[deersniper]

Should have an AR for all that

 

[Darkside-Six]

Why does it matter why someone wants a folding stock? Plenty of well laid out reasons in here.

I’m just trying to justify to myself not spending whatever extravagant amount Ai is going to want for the hinge lol

you guys didn’t help lol

THIS IS ALL OF US. I feel like this is the understanding with AI. They want to charge like $84 for a qd socket on 3” of pic rail. Also they showed the gun with a bag rider in literally all the stock photos—but no bag rider.

 

[Darkside-Six]

Yeah. It’s bad enough we had to wait 8 fucking months for these to start coming in when the original launch date was supposed to be March/April.

 

[deersniper]

I get the concern, but the rifle is worth the price.

Trying not to be dick........

 

[alfmoonspace]

So is the bag rider, bridges, and folder mech not available right now?

AI is taking notes from micro transactions.

Oh absolutely. My issue is that I wanna be able to buy the other shit now!

Gotcha, yes, I want the folder now....

Yeah, it’s the additional cost DLC.

 

[JB.IC]

Don’t worry. They’re busy making chassis for people who don’t want to purchase a full AI rifle. Once they’re done attending to the partial AI fans, they’ll get back to the actual AI supporters. Sorry they put you last. It’s like an abusive relationship.

 

[abn31c]

I'd like to be be spanked with a folder......

So, it’s like reverse AA where we acknowledge the relationship but still want it?

Our AA can be Accuracy Anonymous I guess—I’m betting the ASR buttstock is like 1–1.2k and I’ll probably preorder it hoping it’ll get delivered on time.

Weren't you trying to sell your AXSR? AI supporter...

Yes you can. The Aussie's already did it with their PrePro AT-X

Was in threat of losing my overseas contract so I panicked. But I still have it.

 

[excess]

Just picked up mine today. Pretty excited to get out with it.

 

[DocRDS]

Was having some second thoughts before.

Latest convo not helping. Knew I ordered wrong color

 

[ma smith]

They should have done red camo if they were going to hold up the other colours

 

[Adam B]

I don’t know why you guys are fretting about the colors you can always get it Ceracoated any color you want

 

[Huskydriver]

Ai sitting back sipping some sizzurp stamp tax paid tea counting fat stacks of gold florins looking at you like.....

 

[DocRDS]

Color determines delivery order (or so the scuttlebutt is).

I chose poorly.

FYI - my 6 BRA AT barrel does NOT headspace correctly to the AT-X

** Public Service Announcement **

Though these are *supposed* to be compatible with AT barrels & AX barrels - make sure you check headspace if you swapping barrels across rifles.

**Note everything is off to the smith to be checked, will know 100% once I hear back...

How did you find the issue?

 

[Huskydriver]

How did you find the issue?

Take it you're not a reloader lol? If the hs was shorter than his last barrel he would get resistance upon closing with his sized brass from his previous barrel....if the new barrel has more hs then he checked it either with a hs go gauge and scotch tape or a no go gauge more than likely

LOL. You must be new around here…

But in all seriousness, who chambered that 6BRA barrel?

 

[Fred @ Bison Tactical]

Difference in brass size. However since I don't have gauges I will have the smith doublecheck to make sure that there is a problem in the barrel, and not somewhere else. He has the measurements from the AT and can compare to the AT-X

This barrel on the AT-X seems to have more headspace than when it was on the AT, so my brass got around 6.5 thou longer. However I am going to have the smith measure the AT-X and compare with the #'s from the AT so we can see if it was that or some other mistake I made.

...Normally its some mistake I made somehow along the line - either in resizing or something...

Also, I am not a normal AI shooter, normally I shoot a Bighorn TL3, and have shot a few AI's over the years, but none consistently. I have however high hopes for the AT-X since it solves a lot of the stock/chassis problems I didn't like with the prior AI's... Isn't it common for the AI barrels to work across platforms, or is there a lot of variation? I kind of assumed that if they had a swappable barrel then headspace should be consistent across the platforms? Was that a wrong assumption?

Your kidding no bag rider?!

 

[alfmoonspace]

I’m curious to see if someone with a AT-X could use some gauges to see the HS on the factory barrel.

 

[RRW]

For those with the AT-X that actually clean their rifles,does the cheek piece remove? I don’t feel like removing the barrel every time to clean it.

 

[carlooa]

They now note it on the MH product page lol.

This was my big hope that I could run multiple barrels (308 for practice, 6.5 for manbun, 6GT for fabulous competition). Definitly makes me nervous (or more nervous than I already am). Have not seen others mention this issue, but I am still a plebe.
