Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

[Jered Joplin]

This trigger guard is way over due but there is a good reason for it. Jeff and I spent a lot of time running over the programs and fixtures to be able to bring it to you guys at a much lower price point than before. The main difference is ramping up for major production verses running like a job shop. I haven't taken a photo of it anodized yet but they are anodized and ready to ship. So enough of the BS here she is in the white:

<span style="color: #009900">LA RTG</span> (Redesigned Trigger Guard)
For now prices are as follows:
<span style="color: #FF0000">$200 w/o magazine</span>

<span style="color: #FF0000">$285 with AI magazine</span>

I don't have it up on our site yet so for the next few days you'll have to call the shop to order one: 706-367-8881
Or shoot me a PM with your number and I'll have Darlene give you a jingle.

I'm running the short action RTG's now so expect them at the same price point.

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

It's an exact match. I didn't want to do it that way but everyone requested it so we made it that way.

Who says tactical can't be Sexy! That's one HOT BITCH if I do say so myself. We have plans for many more products coming soon, and just as sexy too.

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

So the LA is cheaper than the SA? Do you plan on bringing the price on the SA to $200?

 

[J Harris]

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

Yes the price for the SA will be the same as the LA.

I want to see a close up of a stock with a Badger M5 in it then a pic of the same stock with the APA metal.

If it is a perfect fit I will buy one.

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

This should get the point across:
This rifle is my rifle that I bedded for the Badger way back when. You can see in the photo that it's bedded in the bottom and both fit.

Pay no attention to the logo. This one was a prototype so I was playing with it a little. We also opened up the feed ramp considerably. I haven't had time to recoat it yet but it's the best example I've got.

Here is a photo of the gun with a one mile target shot by our hunting guide Jeff in Iowa. I'd say it's safe to say it didn't cause any accuracy issues when we dropped it in. The group was fired with 300g Corbon ammo (338 Lapua) . I actually was telling him that he shot over and to come down slightly when he was shooting. The target never kicked over and it looked like he was shooting just over the top of it. Kinda scary to think what that may have looked like. Well you know the drill. Some times you get blown in.............sometimes you get blown out. We thought he missed all 5 shots until we drove up to it.

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

Very nice! I know I'll be needing a SA when they become available.

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

Mag release is kickass, Jered

 

[Jered Joplin]

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

Yes it is normal for it to be recessed on the McM A1-3, A3, A2, and the Baker Special. The forend shape is what does it. Notice the M5 is the same.


The short action RTG's are off the machine. I'm running latches now and they'll be ready to roll.

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

I made a video so you can look at it a little more in depth and see the features and operation a little better.

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

Destruction video testing coming soon! You know we're rednecks and need to blow something up at least once a week.

 

[RingSteel]

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

Good job on the video too. Shows the trigger guard features well.

Any chance we'll get to see vid of the destructive testing?

 

[Jered Joplin]

Re: Finally the APA Long Action trigger guard!

It's on the list. I just need to get the time to do it. We are going to break something for sure.
