Anyone have some comparison pictures of the pale brown or dark earth chassis next to something Magpul fde or KAC taupe or something similar? Hard to tell from pics on the website. Thanks in advance.

I’ve got a ‘23 AT, so it must be the new green.

I have a green barrel too. Was black from Mile High but I had em coat it because at the time I had an AX and I really liked that AX “all green” factory look.

Now the AX is gone and have to say, don’t miss it.

Here’s an iPhone hack recolor job of your pic. If you squint, this is basically what my rig would look like.


Below, the sold AX and current AT.

I’m going to let it sink in for a bit before I do anything rash.

Bought it a few years ago when they were easy to get along with like 4 mounts. The only luck I have in life is buying gun crap that somehow skyrockets in value not long after.
Well it tells me you have been doing this for a while.
Remember summer 2021 during covid how hysteric the market was? Your boy made a killing on mod0 mod1 sr15s 😂
 
1) I realized later that he said "take off", and my post was rather useless. Even more than usual.

2) Yep, everything has gone way up. I just saw a video title along the lines of "My $12,xxx PRS Rifle" by Phillip Velayo (sp) on YouTube. Good for the guys that want to go that route. It ain't me though.
I saw that video too. I do like Phil, but videos like that are nothing other than a not-so-subtle flex. I dont care how much your rig cost dude...
 
So you have an atx in an at chassis

Yup! I loved my at-x so much i decided to get an at-xc. Always liked the AT with thumbhole stocks so traded the atx chassis for this setup since i dont want an atx and a xc. My plan was to sell the vision forend and just have a complete AT but now i have it in hand the vision setup is nicer than i expected.

Here’s a good deal on an ATX with folded, weights, and a bag rider if anyone is looking. It’s at a Cabela’s so they’ll send it to any Cabelas or bass pro for pickup for free.

 
my AXSR forearm just came loose after a short ride in the sxs and 5 rounds of 300nm. oddly enough, 4 of 5 rounds were clustered in a sub 1/4MOA knot and the other was 1/2" away. i didn't notice til i was trying to get this 338U SR unstuck.

per manual, i tightened the two hex screws to 45 in/lbs. feels solid again, but how long til it comes loose again? are there more than just these 2?

are you guys putting loctite or something on these screws?

This is the kind of thing that makes me want to just stick with my AT’s. There’s just too many screws on these newer chassis for my liking.

Loctite on every screw would be my suggestion

Never had an issue with my forend loosening, and I put em to 35in/lb. The only bolt on mine that has come loose is the fuckin cheek riser bolt. Torqued down and witness marked. Still loose. Put a drop of blue loctite like 3,000rds ago (guesstimated without looking in the maintenance book) and zero issues with slippage.

Maybe a full clean/degreasing of the threads and bolts is needed? Try that. If still loosening, just pop a drop of blue loctite, pop some witness marks, and send it.

And a friendly reminder…go flush your trigger with lighter fluid. Friends don’t let friends not flush their AXSR triggers.

Just put more tq on it.

45in might work.

Rail came off once at a match, i just cranked till they stoped. Done
 
Looking for a Proof CF 308 20" AI-M27, PM me if you have a NIB or clean low round count you're looking to unload.
1300 rounds. But it’s a 308

Had a problem with the AXMC yesterday.
Got a few "clicks" when I was expecting a "bang"
It was like the firing pin was getting stuck in the bolt body and not going all the way forward, but then also would not go past half-cocked until I moved the safety to the middle position, ran the bolt, and then moved it back to fire.

Imma clean it to see if that helps but is there anything else that I should be looking at?
