[Fred @ Bison Tactical]

hope you got the rrs head and a LR RRS clamp, the arca swiss clamp on the cyke pod (with the "dial" kinda sucks). Its what i have on my ATX and just get the RRS head and had a clamp here ... far far better

I agree with you on the Ckyepod - the lever is certain much faster IMO - and I am very used to it on the Anvil 30.

We have (1) Ckyepod with the RRS interface, but the problem is the SC-LR's to attach to them. We can't keep the SC-LR's in stock which IIRC is what you need for the top of the Ckyepod with the RRS Interface.

https://www.bisontactical.com/mdt-ckye-pod/ (we have 1)
https://www.bisontactical.com/rrs-sc-lr/ (out and waiting on possible restock - but RRS is severely backordered which converting over to R-Lock or ARC technology)

1+ year. People who pre-ordered early last year are still waiting. Lots of missed deadlines. 9 months if lucky.

I think that all depends on what color you ordered. Having ordered a month ago, I’m sitting at number 10 for a DE. If that batch that was posted a month ago ever showed up to EO, I definitely won’t be waiting 9 months.

 

[Rhed]

I can tell you I ordered 1 month ago with euro for a DE and my place in line hasn’t changed.

Wow! I guess the 6.5 prc ATX gonna be longer since AI is busy getting out outstanding orders?

They haven’t even released a short action magnum bolt face yet.

 

[edm714]

If anyone is waiting on Black I ordered early August and I'm #2 or 3 at EO.

 

[DocRDS]

I don't know exactly when I ordered but it was "spring" and MH doesn't give out numbers.

Black and waiting. (called Oct 31 and was told black is last).

SInce I started bitching I'm sure, I'm "extra last"

 

[BuLLet]

Hmm... Instead of Red, White(missing) and Blue, I could go Black and Blue representing the beating I'm taking on the Wait!

 

[deersniper]

It seems like the Full Length Night vision bridges ship without the screws to attach them to the chassis.

Mine from euro a week or couple ago came with screws fwiw

I ordered a black one and it also came with screws. Not sure how so many aren't included.

 

[Rhed]

Yes.. what I meant is that 6.5 prc version that is said to be release will probably be longer. Since they have to full fill outstanding orders. We all know the 6.5 prc version is coming out later.

The AT-X had its launch on January 18, 2021 which would have been the first day of the Shot Show. It was impossible to order early last year.
Unfortunately one of our US Shooting Team said April for deliveries but that was never the case. I had hoped for June but in fact we made our first deliveries at the beginning of July. We then had unexpected delays in manufacturing for first production but these are now behind us.
We will have shipped all of our first US production and most of our first U K production by Christmas. We will ship all of our second production by March 2022 and be back to our plan by June.
If you order now you will receive an AT-X by June 2022 at the latest.

Tom, does this mean I should expect my blue AT-X by Christmas? I’m 2nd on the list at EuroOptic.

We will ship all of the first production to our distributors before Christmas. I cannot say if you will get yours but I think it is a high probability

Picked mine up the day before Thanksgiving from MH. Changed out the grip to a Fab Defense. This was a 5 shots after getting it on paper.
142 grains Sierra match kings. 41.6 gr H4350. The DE looks so good in person ! Pre ordered it in mid March

 

[seansmd]

How is the thumbshelf on the fab defense?

 

[MarinePMI]

So yes to just a grippy Do-Dad? No way I'm gonna tool up for milling them, but if you're not familiar with my MJF printing you're missing out. Leagues above the FDM printing you listed and probably preferable for this task. Could do a superior grip pattern at a substantially lower cost, similar weight if adding heft is the goal...or nearly weightless if not.

Yes, it's a grippy doo-dad. Fits over the welded bottom of the AW mags (the tabs on each side). A set screw (IIRC) locks them to the mag.

If you make them, I'd be down for 2-4 without hesitation.

Get me a mag and let's make it happen.

 

[MarinePMI]

Shoot me a PM. I'm out of town the next few days, but have a mag that's worn out (it's 7 years old, adn the spring is finally wearing out) that can be used (base is still fine).

 

[BLKWLFK9]

Get me a mag and let's make it happen.

Yea, i'd be in for a couple myself. Be sure to make a thread on it once it gets ironed out.

 

[dntninja]

How is the thumbshelf on the fab defense?

It's a lot smaller and more vertical than the one that came with the rifle. Fits small hands well and you can wrap you thumb arounds it. Both have the same tactile feel to them. I put the Fab on all my ARs.

I ordered black from euro on June first and got ship notification Friday. Tracking says I’ll have it tomorrow. When I ordered June first I was number 6 in line.

Yeah I guess I'm on the naughty list. Yet another pre-order I got bombed on. I'll learn someday.

 

[XikoPlavi]

I was told I was #6 with scopelist (Euro Optic) and havent received a notification...

Yeah EO told me I was number 10 just a week ago for ES. So this makes no sense unless it’s all just BS. I’ll call them again tomorrow.

 

[carlooa]

@tomirwin do you guys have an ETA for the hinge or asr stock? Trying to give you guys more money.

 

[Rory_Fritz]

Damn. I may give them a call today to see if any of the DE rifles came in. I was #3 on the list last I checked.

 

[Eastern hunter]

When a shipment come in and they deliver to the customer then you move on the list. I was 6th for black then I was 3 then week later they had it.

 

[Stag556]

Piggy backing off of @BLKWLFK9 12rd AW mag, I cut the bottom out of one of mine as well. Spring passed through the bottom quite easily but an issue I saw was the follower bottoming out in the mag, essentially a hard stop no matter how much extra travel the follower spring had. I could get 12 but when I’d push the top round, the whole stack would move with it… no go for me.

BLK said his 12th was tight and the last round had very little spring tension with the 419 extension but ran ok in the rifle. I wanted to play with mine some more.

What I ended up doing was removing a very small amount of material on the underside of the follower. That gave me clearance to run the 12th and not have it be tight. I also opted to try the Altus 2rd base plate, which is about half the depth of the 419, which gives that last round added and appropriate spring tension.

All in all, BLK had the idea and I just wanted to give my take and maybe slight improvement. Whatever the debate, having a 12th in the AW mag vs grabbing it from the quiver is better for me, because I ALWAYS forget I shot 11 and pull the trigger on an empty chamber. ALWAYS…

 

[BuLLet]

I'm feeling a little blue today!

 

[BuLLet]

3 blues @ EuroOptic, #2 your up now...

@Texascbr

 

[Texascbr]

My Blue #2 from EO is paid in full, FFL verified and shipping today. Original order date 2/9/21. Hope it gets here in time to test on Saturday.

Now I can start impatiently waiting for the folding stock adapter.

 

[Rory_Fritz]

EO still hasn't recieved any more dark earth rifles. Not sure where the ones AI posted Oct 30 are, so that kinda sucks.

 

[Lonely Raven]

Only 3 to EO huh? I guess my #7 at MH won't be till sometime next year....

 

[Scott Seigmund]

That's because we have fulfilled all the DE 1st cycle orders for Euro Optic. New DE shipments will be against 2nd cycle orders.

 

[WhiskeyWebber]

MH has an ES batch in!

I appreciate the updated posts from you Scott but I’m confused. AI social media posted on October 30th (month ago) a photo of DE rifles and said “headed to Mile High and Euro Optic”.

According to Euro, they were aware of that post and that shipment never showed up. As of two days ago, they told me they expect a shipment of DE rifles any day.

Hate to be that guy but it seems there is zero comms between anybody in this process.

Ahh good to know. I had no idea what the cutoff was for cycles 1 and 2. Figured I'd still be cycle 1 since I placed my order in April.

 

[PlinkIt]

You get contact for payment or what?
I got nothing...

 

[WhiskeyWebber]

I called and they called me back and said it just came in. Expecting a call tomorrow to finalize payment. I ordered in Feb I think.

So I thought these rifles were coming with a short pic rail for for end?
Mine does not have one with it.

It’s located in the same blister pack as the bag riders.

When I asked in past they said it came with it and I seen others have it so figured it was included. Well I don’t have to have it but I would have used it.

Could’ve sworn someone in this thread suggested one had to use the pic section from the stock.

ES

It’s built in and doesn’t come off.

 

[3rdfocal]

Finally arrived! For anyone interested, an 18" AI barrel just clears the end of the chassis.

What's the best way to mount a sling QD cup on the left front rail?

The $80 pic rail sections they sell...

 

[generalzip]

There's got to be a cheaper option that does the same thing... I'll loop paracord through the keymod before I spend that much on a sling mount lol

 

[generalzip]

All the thought that went into this chassis and an integral front QD sling cup wasn't on that list.... Or left out on purpose to scam you for an extra $80 after already spending $5000 lol
