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.

Coup De Grâce, New Action from American Rifle Company, $899 WOW!
- Thread starter karagias
- Start date
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 ago
mines the same starting, hoping to receive my shipping notification, although I leave next Wednesday for a month, soooo there’s that
0369xx here too
20moa .473” red fluted fixed here. Nothing on sight yet. action wrench maybe? I assume every body ordered one so…
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
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.
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
Thoughts on barrel?
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!
The action wrenches are generic they will fit any CDG action, but not other models of action.
What does one do with a dozen actions? Resale? Custom rifles?
I 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?
A few buddies wanted some too, and the headache and cost of importing them into Aus needs a volume purchase to make it viable.
Got my shipping notification on Wednesday I think. Short/Right/.535/20 MOA/Red/Fluted/Pivoting.
No rush for me. The rest of the build is completely dependent on my futures trading performance. Let's just say I got a ways to go lol.

There's pictures of a fluted bolt in the wild on the last page.
Yes. Short, Right, .473, Fluted, Hourglass, 20 MOA, Black, Pivoting. With action wrench.
really hoping this will be my day... F5-F5-F5...
@Supersubes are you going B&A with a pivoting or fixed BH?

I ordered my action wrench separately (like like a month later) I emailed them about it. I hope they throw it in with my action. I hope I get shipping notifications for the action and pva barrel soon. I have to visit family at the end of May and It would be awesome if I could bring this completed rifle with me.
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?
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.
The trigger hanger needs to be clearanced for the safety lever on this trigger. Also, the knurled (top) portion of the safety needs to be altered to clear the receiver. I have two of these triggers here. Unaltered, one works and one doesn't. See pictures of the one that works.
Yellow circle: Contact with the receiver. This prevents he safety lever from moving all the way to the fire/vertical position. The hook near the safety lever pivot (white circle) grabs the pin preventing the sear from falling. The trigger pictured works. The trigger which doesn't work looks exactly like this, but the hook is just a few .001’s closer to the pin so the sear breaks, but the hook stops full release.
Note the clearanced trigger hanger under the safety lever.
The adjustable hanger system is awesome, and very easy to adjust.

I tried a Geiselle super 700 but theres a button head screw located high on the trigger that interferes with the hangar. Should be doable with an alteration to the hangar.
I have a TT primary and a Jewell that i’ll try later. Also have a TT Diamond and a TT two stage coming.

Yes, as shown. The lever isnt all the way forward though.
Edit: I see my mistake. Fixed the post.
I'm not worried about it.
Fit & finish is a sign of quality control
Oh, so you tried a Solus?
The fit and finish is clearly top notch, as witnessed by the pictures.

@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? 
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.
Otherwise, buy a Mausingfield. Just sayin’.
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?
The bolt face looks pristine.
You know what the bolt face is, don't you? I mean, you wouldn't be posting if you didn't know what the a bolt face was, would you?
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?
