Isn't that just an MDT acc premier chassis?
Are they available here? @MDT_OFFICIAL @MDT_Josh

I was thinking the same thing…

Anshutz 1782 rifle is. That combo not as I see. https://www.anschutznorthamerica.com/store/c87/1782_Series.html

Now back to the thread subject.

Yes it is but I believe it’s an OEM exclusive chassis, so I don’t believe MDT has the inlet available for purchase

There's nothing sexy about keymod.

These complaints are unfounded. And ignorant / for poors

Key mod is the strongest attachment method. And! Flush inside
^big thing there




Some legitimate complaints in this thread about AIs part availability etc. I will add not having correct size pic rails. It doesn’t matter till you start using clip ons etc and have to adjust the clamp from rifle to rifle. Gay

*keyslot

The AI keyslot is not the same as keymod.

 

[BurtG]

Thanks key slot key mod key lok. Gold fish memory

 

[BurtG]

The AXSR was tested and isn't bonded. The reason it failed the contract was a failure on a trigger (the factory tried and true trigger type, not the competition trigger). Shit happens sometimes.

The contract was always going to go to Barrett.

Has AI ever gotten anywhere federally in the US?

I remember a solicitation was put out for a quick change barrel AR platform. And Robinson or one of the others had the perfect solution on the shelf. Contract was canceled because KAC wasn’t going to get it.


MIC and corruption is a thing. Mil contract awards don’t tell you that much.

I mean Ukraine is using desert techs and while I like both of mine a lot I wouldn’t use them in combat.

Anyway

 

[BurtG]

And the AT-XC is a scaled down short action version of the AXSR.

Idk why ppl keep saying that

 

[BurtG]

For instance I'd rather have replaceable plastic on the stock versus a full length metal arca that can be damaged easily.

I really wish someone would :

Precision Rifle Gear - Does anyone make a ARCA rail hand cover?

Does anyone make a cover for an ARCA rail to make it more comfortable to grip? If you have a rail on the bottom of the rifle it can be annoying to hold. I’m thinking something like the rubberized covers you can put on Pic rails that can be pulled off quickly if you want to use the rail but...

I think it's because Scott Seigmund (VP, AINA) said it. Could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I remember him saying it.

 

[TylerN]

The action lightning cuts are very similar to the AXSR and the over pressure release holes are the same. And it sounds like the lug geometry of the AXSR is being used in the XC.

And differences between the XC and SR would be the safety.

 

[RedBreast21]

I think it's because Scott Seigmund (VP, AINA) said it. Could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I remember him saying it.

Yeah, I was right. Here's one example (but I believe there are others): Linky

I do think it's kind of funny that just as he says "We have dramatically improved bolt operating forces", he can't quite close the bolt like he wants to.

 

[IsaacL]

AI Key Slot is ugly. But it’s functionally and structurally superior to KeyMod and MLOK. The only plus with MLOK is the widespread aftermarket support. If you’re buying an AI, you can probably afford the accessories.

There's not even a firing pin in that bolt body, so it's not even cocking the fire control group. Look at the light ass bolt lift tho! Dynamic! it's like cycling your at aw atx with the safety in the mid position. Damn that's smooth and easy!

Now back to the thread subject.

Yes, that is a chassis that we make specifically for Anschutz and do not sell on our website (womp womp). However, at the IPRF world cup last year there were a lot of shooters asking for Anschutz and Fortimer inlets, which I believe would be awesome!

If you ever want us to make a new inlet for an existing product you can request it here: MDT Product Request Form

PS: M-Lok > Key Mod. It's proven to be stronger, more reliable and easier to tightly control than just about every other system

Keymod, yes....key-slot....I've yet to see any data one way or the other....but it does have more material in critical spots than key-mod, is easier to use than m-lok in my opinion, and does have the nice benefit of fitting flush on the inside...so is nice for a switch barrel application (you're not having to remove accessories or worry about damaging threads on the exposed screws/t-nuts)

Now do Key Slot. (Well-intentioned, but inflammatory statement warning): It is inarguably superior to both Keymod and MLOK as far as durability and repeatability are concerned, but it's protected by AI's IP, so you can't touch it without sending a check to the UK.

It is the ACC Premier chassis. However, it's an OEM project we did with Anshutz and is only available through them, as we do not offer a retail chassis for this particular model.

Omg Accuracy International’s key-slot is 1000% better than MLOK from a user-experience perspective. Zero futzing.

MLOK I’m always futzing. Did it turn 90° inside the handguard? Did it not? Where’s my flashlight? Goddamnit!

I have no opinion as far as durability/zero retention goes.

Keyslot is significantly better than mlok for precision rifles. However it's so damn ugly on the AXSR I had to replace it with the mlok forend for no reason other than esthetics. On the AT-X where the 'keys' are angled it looks good.

 

[carbonbased]

You might be the only guy I have ever heard of that prefers the fully erect keyslot over the semi-erect lol. Unless you’re pulling my leg?

I have an AX with that same AXSR pattern and I don’t give that look a second thought. Whereas the fully erect Keyslot of the AT-X/AT-XC is a (smallish) reason why I dislike those rifles.

The enclosed forearm FDE AT-XC looks passable…and since I’m a sage green aficionado maybe that would smooth my wounded eyes enough to…no, stop it! I need no more AI’s!

 

[TylerN]

I'm not kidding, here all I see when I looked at my AXSR forend:

I like the erect keyslots, and I'll even set myself up for some good punchlines or memes with that statement

 

[hafejd30]

Keyslot for da win!!!

I'm hoping by putting one AI with Keyslot and one AI with slots together in the safe and giving them time to get intimate the AI family will grow...

Awesome! What’s on the muzzle of the ATX?

Looks like an Area419 adapter to me

Correct, A419 adapter for a suppressor using their mount.

What makes you think that your attempt at English inbreeding will yield different results than the inbreeding that occurred for centuries up to and including the 20th? I expect they'll produce something like this:

Because it is? Same features and technology.

Doesn’t mean it has to look exactly the same.

Dat Hapsberg jaw of the Austrian royal family is a fair warning to keep your glocks away from the pure AI English blood.

[XikoPlavi]

So, you cant use the new bolt with an ATX correct? Id assume thats true.

I don’t really see the difference between the atxc and atxmil….

Do they still ship with bartlen barrels?

Im just wondering. I am keeping my at-x

 

[RedBreast21]

It's your funeral.

 

[Waldemar54]

Hmm.. I almost got the At-X but thankfully I was introduced to Terminus and Pre-Fit Proof. However, I ordered a compatible AT-X chassis and may change the current MDT Premier.

 

[Datsrboi]

Arnt they starting to ship out next month? The suspense is killing me with the wait. Itching to get mine and out on the range asap.

 

[Cody S]

am I correct in understanding you can't use a barrel with a shank bigger than 1.22? or can you just take the barrel shroud top thing off and use larger barrels? if not that would exclude the Palma barrels I happen to have on hand. not that I could afford a new rifle anyways. if I could I'd just buy new contoured blanks lol.

I have several atx barrels with 1.250 shanks and forend bridge, however you can't run a straight taper, a proof comp fits tho. Atxc may be different, idk.

 

[Cody S]

I just recently sold my AX that I loved, the only "complaint" is that the throw was heavy compared to a couple custom actions but honestly, if I had to do it over again, I'd 100% go the same route. As others have said, even with my "heavy" bolt lift gun, in about 5 mins you get used to how to run it. love an AI, just too poor for such a nice toy currently.
I wonder how much percentage they were able to take out of the bolt lift... curiosity only of course.

Yes .

 

[Cody S]

anyone have any updates about when people will start receiving their atxc? I'm coming very close to selling my jeep that I use for a toy to purchase one..

 

[shootertom]

Im wondering the same, I either want the AT-XC or the Geissele MRGG. I can't decide.

 

[CageFighter]

Yes .View attachment 8428992

sweet.......did u do the at-x chassis yet???

I ordered an ATX and canceled the next day. Went with Zeus route also.
