Oh and btw... When is this thing going to be ready to purchase?
This is what i like to hear. I was thinking of picking up an 6.5 Ultra 7 in addition to the 338 Ultra, but sounds like it is not needed.
i shoot my AXMC in 6CM with a 338 ultra. It’s stupid quiet. Both at the shooter and spotters. It’s gotta be close to hearing safe, at least for me.
I’ll be dead before they offer an ASR in left hand
Realistically...yes. But the $20k super operator ASR was never going to be offered or made in LH. The AXSR however, should be at some point. It just may take an extra couple years like the AXMC.
Oh yeah, I forgot that you are a lefty. Damn. The AXRG (AX Ray Gun) will be out by the time they think about another left-handed bolt-action.
Afaik EuroOptic is going to get some for the black which is why they're accepting backorders but we'll see...
I was told they discontinued the colored mag well adapters. They now only produce black.
Yes, and some have delivered. Mine has been in hand for a few weeks.
Edit to add, I’m realllly liking the arca rails and new butt stock. The adjustments are easy and fast. Once I connect with a 6.5 proof barrel, I’ll get some range time.
??Careful now. Haha. Honestly what happened there??
Can we get tons of pics of these beauties??? Please? Thanks wheels.
That’s the HAL 9000 feature

I was thinking it was the mark of the Phoenix Eye lol
I like rhe keyslot better on a multical rifle. There's no protrusions it's smooth on the inside of the rail.
MLOK portion got stuck. Had to remove forend to take it out. These barrels need a 1.350 shank diameter (Same as PSR/ AXMC). So with these Gayness (MLOK) you basically have to remove the forend everytime you take out a barrel as it won't come out since the gayness will be in the way. Unless you want to remove the accessory rails instead everytime you put on and take off the barrel.
Good thing the AXSR's will be keyslot....
@Huskydriver the red dot is labeled as a safety valve. They act as gass pressure reliefe ports to deflect gas leakage. The AX50's have them as well
noob question, but is there a difference the ASR and AXSR? Coming as an AXMC owner that is not familiar with the other alphabet combos.
ASR is the new version of the military offering, replacing the PSR. Only available to public as full kits
AXSR is the new version of AXMC
Thanks for the explanation. I would imagine it’s easier to remove a rail section than the entire fore end but either one could potentially fuck with your zero of anything attached (ATPIaL etc).
On the pressure relief valve it looks black in some pics. Is it also an indicator of what barrel/bolt is in?
Way too many differences to keep track off. Only big similarities is 60 degree bolt, barrel tenon and right side folder lol.
Here's an in-depth video on it... You'd still need to have on in hand to see the other small differences between both systems.
This new style chassis will def be better for comps.
I’m not sure where you got that number. I have an email directly from AINA stating the four screws attaching the scope rail to the action are 5.0 N-m, or 44.24 in-lbs.
@Winny94
I'd appreciate any contradictory info - I had 45 in/lbs in my head for some reason too
Gotcha. That makes sense. I didn't even know there was a PSR. Googling around, the pictures have the PSR looking very similar to the AXMC.
I'm curious which if any of the AX ASR or AXSR parts will be backward compatible with AXMC. For example, the MLOK foreend, the 308 magazine with built-in adapter, the bolts, etc. Have they released verified information on any of this?
Question for those that have spent time now behind the new ASR, would one recommend it above the AXMC for the all around multi caliber rifle, or go for the savings.
not that I can afford a jump to the ASR, but is anyone else not a fan of the safety and grip? The mags (and lack of adapter) are awesome, but otherwise this doesnt look like a upgrade to MC as much as an alternative.
They've only been in the wild for a little less than a month. If anyone recommends one over the other based on time spent, I'd question that persons bias, and that's coming from an AI fanboy.
The biggest upgrade from my limited (20~ days in hand) experience is the Arca rails, butt stock adjustments, and the lack of magazine adapters. If you can justify the extra cost for these features, it's probably for your. I struggle to see where the penny conscious buyer can reasonably enter the AI world without the AT/AE or perhaps pre-14 AX offerings.
In terms of grip, safety, etc., these factors are something to get used to, but were never table steaks for me.
I'll echo nolegs .. MLOK is ultra ghey. Almost did the same thing he did. Almost. The AXSR in keymo is the way to go. No need to take off the for-end to replace barrels.
Food for thought.
The 308 mags in the Kit fit fine and look to feed well in the PSR (AXMC)
The bolts aren’ compatible, idk about the forend. Too lazy to break each apart to find out lol.
Maybe @SkyScrapin can do it ?
for those interested in the system, just wait till the AXSR come out.
I know some people who’s had the ASR for a while now, they mainly choose the AXMC cause they’ve spent more time with the rifle system.
People gotta understand, a lot of the modification where made because of the ASR program. So, maybe we don’t like a certain feature, but that’s what SOCOM wanted...
I dig this system for sure. But would prefer a key slot forend. That’s my only negative. And maybe they made the action a tad skinny for my liking. I like them thick.. all homo
Anyone looking for a good deal on a AIAX SA. They just dumped a ton of showroom and range demos today.

Yeah. Triggers aren’t backward compatible. A tad different. And there’s a pin to secure the trigger.
Taking the action apart is a tad PITA, as one of the 5 screws is underneath the mag release and you have to angle the ball hex to get it loose while you push the mag release forward. I think I make this comp trigger have a heavier pull weight

For anyone interested in the AXMC mag adapters, Jason from EO confirmed that only the black are being manufactured and that AI should be shipping more out in a month.
If that's the case, I know where my money is going when these become available on the market. Would be cool to have my AXMC go adapter-less. One less step during conversions.
