They’re gonna ship what makes sense from a production standpoint. I doubt highly they’re shipping in order of receipt of order. They’re gonna do 20moa .473” right hand short actions first.

I just want to know for science. I’m prepared to wait. But I’ll only have to wait till next week. Mine shipped a bit agoIf you confirm that you ordered at 08:50am pst, and that you haven’t got any shipping notice as of yet, since my order went through at 9am they still have to ship the first hour of the preorder...So the ‘trickle out’ term @usmc45 used was not inappropriate. This does not answer your questions, but still we’re in the hundreds, @karagias said two hundred or so, and that lead me to think about four to five hundred actions. In the end stay calm, sit back and relax, and if another troll shows up, well, is their problem…the can of worms is here…
mines the same starting, hoping to receive my shipping notification, although I leave next Wednesday for a month, soooo there’s thatOrder the morning of, just got shipping notification.

20moa .473” red fluted fixed here. Nothing on sight yet. action wrench maybe? I assume every body ordered one so…They’re gonna ship what makes sense from a production standpoint.

Early 370xx. Hoping tomorrow or Monday shipping label.Order the morning of, just got shipping notification.

And you have it?Mine's a SA RH, 30 MOA rail
w/ action wrench
Dunno if other three lugs wrenches would work, my understanding was that the CDG pattern was not conventional so I went for one straight awayAre action wrenches a universal to the action thing or do I have to get one with my action?
I did not order one yet.
I mean more like if I order it like 4 months after my action comes will it still work.Dunno if other three lugs wrenches would work, my understanding was that the CDG pattern was not conventional so I went for one straight away
The action wrenches are generic they will fit any CDG action, but not other models of action.I mean more like if I order it like 4 months after my action comes will it still work.
Or do they mate it too the action and I should buy it together.
I "plan" on having enough money for the barrel around black friday sales. So it won't even be put together until maybe next year if I get lucky.
Thoughts on barrel?
xlr magnesium chassis 22oz with 25oz stock setup. I'm thinking of using their 25oz standard mercury stock weight too
at least 27" 338 lapua 1/8 twist
preferred barrel blanks (still looking into it)
Carbon wrapped barrel or spiral fluted?
Do dream of using suppressor one day and 338 ones are heavy!
Ah man I should have ordered a 30 MOA. @Jon_ARC swap me but keep my place in lineMine's a SA RH, 30 MOA rail
w/ action wrench
this is good news for meMine's a SA RH, 30 MOA rail
w/ action wrench
What does one do with a dozen actions? Resale? Custom rifles?All my dozen were 20moa RH pivoting 473.
So, got to rub my pecker on it a bit. Im
Not sure what final finish issues Ted and the crew had, but this thing is beautiful! Every bit as pretty as the renderings. Kinda grey/black in color. Interestingly, the entire receiver body has a melted/dehorned look. Not sure how they do that, tumbling perhaps, but its very consistent across the entire receiver. Detail work, small radiuses, broken edges, and serrations are everywhere. You all will have to see this for yourselves, I dont think anyone else has even tried to do something like this. I recall seeing these details in the renderings and thinking a lot of that wouldn’t make it to production. The only sharp edges on the whole thing are the serrations on the bolt release lever. Only tool marks noted are on the nose of the bolt, and the rear face of the cocking piece. The bolt face is smooth.
I dont think anyone will be disappointed in the bolt lift. I’ll do some comparisons tonight, but if its not the lightest three lug out, its right there in the running. Seems in the realm of a very good two lug to me. The full diameter bolt is legit. This is how a bolt should feel during fore and aft movement! This is the pivoting bolt version, and seems like it has more primary extraction than the Arc did(.150” vs .060-.080). Could just be my recollection from the early versions I had here when they first came out.
The ejection port seems massive. This is a short action, and thats a 7 PRC cartridge in the Pic.
I really appreciate the aesthetics, especially the treatment to the rear bridge, tang, and shroud. Has a classy vintage look to my eye, and totally unique. I really like the Zermatt Origins, but side by side they look like they're $1000 apart. I can’t believe they can make this for a $900 retail. Very happy I decided to order a long version a few minutes after I ordered this one. Congrats to Ted and Crew!
I wont be able to spin a barrel for this one for a few weeks, so you guys with prefits will probably beat me to that.
The Alpha numeric serial number seems coded in some way. Ted @karagias can you tell us how the numbers work?
Only had a short time to play with it after the dog was done. If anyone has any questions or pic requests, please ask.

I did and I feel like that was a few months ago or at soDidn't you guys get a request for FFL info right after you ordered?
What does one do with a dozen actions? Resale? Custom rifles?
Its iPhones shitty low light performance combined with a wet (lube) shiny surfaceI hope that ARC can clean up the finish on the bolt head a bit. Anyway, in the photo above what's the patchy grey/black areas inside the receiver?
There's pictures of a fluted bolt in the wild on the last page.Has anyone that ordered a fluted bolt get a shipping notification?
Yes. Short, Right, .473, Fluted, Hourglass, 20 MOA, Black, Pivoting. With action wrench.Has anyone that ordered a fluted bolt get a shipping notification?
Why?I hope that ARC can clean up the finish on the bolt head a bit.
You're worried about a part that doesn't touch, or interface with any other part of the action, cartridge, or barrel, looking like, "dog shit", but you think an Aero Solus doesn't feel like dog shit?So it don't look like dogshit!
I have the pivoting handle, and I’ll be playing with several triggers. The trigger on it now is a B&A Tacsport two stage.really hoping this will be my day... F5-F5-F5...
@Supersubes are you going B&A with a pivoting or fixed BH?
Yes, as shown. The lever isnt all the way forward though.Wouldn’t vertical be the fire position?
I'm not worried about it.You're worried about a part that doesn't touch, or interface with any other part of the action, cartridge, or barrel, looking like, "dog shit", but you think an Aero Solus doesn't feel like dog shit?
Right, but you said, “safe/vertical position”.Yes, as shown. The lever isnt all the way forward though.
The fit and finish is clearly top notch, as witnessed by the pictures.I'm not worried about it.
Fit & finish is a sign of quality control
Oh, so you tried a Solus?
You're right, fixed it. Thank you.Right, but you said, “safe/vertical position”.
true, but in that location, engineering specs may not call out a finish since it’s not needed or critical there. Remember that you paid $899 for an action that is likely better than some of those $1300-1500 actions. The price is somewhat predicated on the fact that the design is focused on minimizing labor and additional steps.I'm not worried about it.

This has been covered.@Supersubes what is this gray/silvery stuff? My vision is poor or you're using a Nokia phone from 2003 or could be reflection from KY Jelly? View attachment 8129984
Are you brand blind? That bolt face looks like dogshit.The fight and finish is clearly top notch, as witnessed by the pictures.
The bolt face looks pristine.Are you brand blind? That bolt face looks like dogshit.
Scroll back a little ways(post 2937), i posted better pics this morning. Trying to keep reflections down, so the room light is low and im zoomed into the e-port. Iphones have shit low light performance.@Supersubes what is this gray/silvery stuff? My vision is poor or you're using a Nokia phone from 2003 or could be reflection from KY Jelly?
