Interesting they have installed the butt pads upside down, Frank style.
Also somewhat surprised they are still using the Parker Hales bipod, maybe they are just used to them but they are kinda horrible by todays standards.

It feels better that way. I'm glad I'm not the only one who does it. It made me quite happy to see the Irish doing the same.
Interesting. I heard the rumor and asked the guys at EO before I ordered my AT and they said it wasn't true. This was a month or so before SHOT. I'd believe the folks at Sporting Supplies though. Just checked EO and MH and there are barely any ATs in stock. Might have to see about getting that AW and sell the AT..
Is it way overpriced? I know it's hard to get a pulse on the "market" since so few of these come up for sale..
Edit: Sorry to spam this thread with price checking. Please accept these photos as an apology.
I would not pay that much, easy to say though, i own one. However, if i was searching for a rifle forever and it pops up, i pay whatever is required to find inner peace
Its on you how bad you want one.
They go for about 8000-10 000 Euro including scope in Europe.
I'd rather buy a Sako TRG M10 for 12 000 and look for a used AW thats cheaper.
Shame to see rifles like that sitting in a safe or hanging on a wall without ever being used. Very sad....
Firearms - AI AW 308
Hello Hide. Hate to do this but I'm putting my AW up for grabs. Rifle is in great shape. -folder -308 16.5" barrel -Badger NV mount -Arca rail mount Took it out of the safe this morning and took some quick pics. Can take additional glamour shots this evening when I get home if needed...

i have an old US Optics level on my AW and i dont think its right. i cant make it be right with any of my other bubble levels.
It’s more to protect from the scratches as I am not very careful .
Pretty sure this is the "you're a wealthy 40 year old trying to bring to life your video gaming nostalgia from 20+ years ago" price
That be the highest price I’ve seen one go for if sold. Have seen a few near $10k in certain models. Funny thing is when the AT came out guys were dumping these for current AT prices
That’s a lot of cheddar but there probably aren’t many unshot AW’s out there. The market sets the price on these since you can’t buy them anymore from a dealer. Personally, I think that’s a bit unrealistic but maybe there is someone out there that would buy it. I have one AW with a 2nd on the way so I am a bit of a collector and I wouldn’t pay that.

Thanks. Saves me the hassle of trying to hunt another one down and see if it works. My bubble sits all the way right just touching the edge of the window. I will just use that mark as level until I figure out another solution. Appreciate the information

Okay humour me with the heritage of the AE.
It was my belief the original MK1 AE only used a proprietary 5 round magazine. The AE Mk11 used proprietary 5 and 10 round magazines and finally the AE Mk111 used AICS magazine just before they were dropped with the introduction of the AT.
Reason I ask is a friend here in the U.K. is selling an AE having bought an AT-X because he couldn’t get 10 round magazines for his original AE.
Your bolt fluting is certainly something very different to his AE.
It's a MK l action in a MK ll chassis(folder, adjustable cheek), uses common AICS mags. I bought it used and can't comment on the bolt fluting. The numbers on the bolt and firing pin assembly do not align with the action SN. I don't care. it's a laser

Love that camo pattern on your back pack, what brand is that ?Had a great trip to the US recently with a good mate. Took the AT-X in 6.5CM over, being so easy to get ammo for locally with MHSA.
Rocks and sand with Colorado Precision Rifle at the Blue Steel Ranch in NM, snow filled canyons in Colorado and finally farm fields in Missouri shooting NRL Hunter matches.
Caught up with a heap of excellent people, ate a shit load of brisket & burnt ends, drank a lot of Dr Pepper and made a heap of new mates. Love the USA.

Welp, seller didn't accept the offer of 12. He originally listed for 15 but wants to get at least 14. Oh well.. moving on.
AW’s are awesome
But I’m not sure they’re used AXSR topped with a ZCO awesome….
But if he sells it for that good for him. Everyone has a price on what they have/want
For that kind of money you could get 42 Savages...and have 3 that function 
I concur. It is pretty hard to beat the AXSR/ZCO combo. …maybe a 735TT/AXSR would once they offer a non-dogshit reticle.
For real. I’ve been shopping for a scope for mine for months. Had narrowed it to TT 735 and sb 636 and just today decided that I just can’t live with any TT reticle. They’re all complete dogshit.I concur. It is pretty hard to beat the AXSR/ZCO combo. …maybe a 735TT/AXSR would once they offer a non-dogshit reticle.
I guess in a way I should thank them that they saved me $2-3k compared to everyone else’s scopes
While the current selection of SB 6-36 reticles is only P5FL and GR2ID, they have released (and you can pre-order) the new TR2ID reticle, which to me is a much better option. It is similar to the NF Mil-XT, which I have and like.
Gen 3XR $6k scope crew checking in.
If I remember right there was a unfired AWM that sold here less than a year ago for under 10k. 12 for a AW would have been one of the highest I've seen
Funny I couldn’t give away an 1.5 AW and an AWM years ago on here when the AT came out. The AW had ever color skin and the AWM had 338 and 300 win bolts and barrels and an AI marked S&B on it.
I love my AIs but I don’t understand paying so much for an AW it’s just an AT with thumbhole skins and a barrel you need a vise to remove. But hey everyone has their thing.

Have you seen how much 90s Japanese cars like the Supra, RX7 and Skyline can fetch these days.
You used to be able to by them for next to nothing.
The same goes for most things in life, when something becomes out dated or replaced by a new model it's worthless. Once 99% of said item is no longer available it becomes a collectors item.
There are a bunch of cars from the 80s and 90s that 5-10 years ago were next to worthless, now they sell for 100k+.
Look at fox body mustangs. You could get them all day for 3-5k not long ago and the last 2 years they are 15+

I was shocked. I finally got some free cash and my neighbor growing up had a black cobra fox body I loved. Mild lowering with a nice full exhaust. I looked to get one and was shocked to see they are 15-25k now.88 Vert owner here

im holding for $20k . its not that the value is getting so high, our money is just worth less.
I am genuinely curious what turned you off of those reticles.
.

.
To avoid typical SH antics, please don’t take this as offense or general shit talking…
Lol
Because they’re literally mil dot reticles with added hashes.
Good reticles draw your eyes quickly to the 1 mil hashes and then have more subtle sub divisions.
TT reticles have giant .2 .4 .6 .8 hashes and then a tiny dot at the mils, which on the gen3 is even kinda difficult to distinguish from the small .2 hash.
of all the basic geometric shapes, why put a circle on a line in 2024? Sure there were manufacturing considerations in the 1980s or whatever for mil “dots”. But why now? And why mix dots and hashes?
on ffp reticles when you zoom out you can use a giant 1, 2, 3 etc mil hash because you can still see it. That tiny TT dot at 2 mils and 3 mils etc gets invisible fast when zooming out.
Just a nice setup, and wanted to share. Wasn't happy with the SPUHR Deltapoint Pro mount: it sits too close to the turret and required a 4mm spacer that didn't align well (see previous posts HERE). This instead is the SPUHR Wilcox Low A-0019D bridge + Leupold DeltaPoint Pro Low Profile Picatinny Mount. Easy to swap ou the RMR to anything else now, as well.
