Finally picked up a used AT today.

Bushnell XRS2 on top, Bartlein barrel in 260R.

Thumbhole kit to fit, paint, barrel chop and then I can get the suppressor on and finish off the deer season with it.

After looking up how to paint using stencils, how trashy is it to spray an AI lmao

I'm seriously thinking about it. Worst case I can strip it

Real men paint. Cerakote is what children who can’t finger paint do.

[Krob95]

Also @Huskydriver how you like that RMR? Do you use it for finding targets?? Or?

Yea and just in case I have some really hostile paper targets that show up at pb to 200 yards on my peripherals lol

Good deal. I'm thinking about getting a RMR for my ZCO

It's actually really nice when scanning for long distance targets

It's impossible to ruin an AI with thumbholes. The paint looks good man!

Rifle Makeover 2021 Edition!

20" Bartlein barrel wasn't shooting up to par, had close to 3500 rounds through it, had to pull it and put on a new Proof straight contour 24" CF 6.5CM Chambered by GAP. Swapped to my TBAC Ultra 9. Took the 3-12x50 and put back on the 5-25 PMII. Installed the Sawtooth 12" ARCA rail and now running a Gen 2 Cyke Pod. Amazingly, it probably dropped 3lbs or so off the rifle.

Won't need these anymore.

 

[Krob95]

If you’re throwing that 3-12 away, you can send it my way

Looks good!

I already called dibs, back off pal

 

[Bacarrat]

Garbage man picked it up already. Thought everyone was ZCO and NF were all the rage now. Internet peoples(aka The Poors) tell me S&B =garbage because it tunnels.

Can you send me an address to your local landfill? I need that turd for a hunting rifle

And never NF. Only ZCO and TT

Can confirm… the S&B 5-25 w/ DTII+ turrets I just bought from Euro is trash. Gonna follow your lead and throw it out

I gotcha 5 dollars for it. I'll even pay shipping. No need for insurance on that thing.


@HD1911 these rifles are bonded to the chassis. Unless you have reason to suspect your AI has been through hell 3 times and back, I wouldn't worry about the action screws. As for the other questions I do not know. How long is that barrel by chance?

 

[HenryTheAce]

A couple questions if I may…. does anyone know the optic rail screw torque spec? And do most blue loctite them? Also, I’d like to check action screw torque, for piece of mind, if it’s even necessary? Is it easy enough to do that? Do I need any special (longer than normal) hex driver or anything? Sorry, I don’t know shit about AI’s, and been searching for awhile now and can’t really find much.

Congrats!!! Here’s one I found a while ago and screenshot

 

[J-Ham]

Right click, save image as...

Lol I actually really like it so far! Putting it on my TacOps when it arrives tomorrow! Gonna hit the range over Christmas here and put it up against my ZCO and TT, my first S&B!

I got $ 5 more than krob and my hair looks better

You don't have to lie man, we all know my mullet is the best on the hide.

 

[Krob95]

Gotcha, thank you. It’s a 20” 1:12. Getting ready to list it up with the area 419 hellfire now. Thought about just keeping it and shooting the shit out of it, but I dunno. I’d rather take the proceeds and buy more 6.5 ammo with it.

Sent ya a pm lol

 

[ksp 498]

Anyone got a spray can color that close to elite sand yet? Got a rifle coming and wanted to see if I could match the optic.

Thanks

So I miss my AX terribly and pondering selling off some stuff to fund an AT again.

Can someone with an AT measure from the front of the mag well to the tip of the stock? Trying to get an idea of length compared to some stocks I own. My major gripe about my AX was stability in different positions.

Used AT + AO/Vision chassis + AX butt stock = done.

I've seen your, it's nice lol. I do want a classic AI look though. I have a line on 2 sets of old thumb hole skins id through them in. Top it with a leupy mk5 and ill be happy as a clam.

Exactly my setup. Not an inexpensive option, but ... it's an AI

11.5", with comparisons.

 

[KillerK]

Thanks! FYI... with a little modification of the grip area, it fits in the transit case perfectly.

So the barrel fits in the lid? Where does the hand guard go?

Thank you sir! Very nice collection.

Can anybody direct me to who sells the thumb rest for an AX ? Thanks

 

[Krob95]

mile high shooting accessories or anarchy outdoors. They both sell them.

Where does one find those nifty thumb rests you are running on your AIs?

Been seeing pics of AI's with thumb rests on them... Is this an AI thing or aftermarket? Anybody got any info on these? Thanks

Aftermarket. Sam B, the same guy responsible for the Accuracy Obsession chassis:conversion is the one who started making them. They’re great!
