Anyone see KRG tease the new gen 4 line of xray chassis? Any ideas or inside info what changes and upgrades will be?

Ya I can see thati think it looks very KMWish. Hopefully it’s not as ugly as the mdt crossover lol
Hopefully they'll be of some use with the Bravo as well.I have an X-ray, but am curious if the improvements can be bought and added on to update an older one

Longer forend please....
That's what keeps me from getting a KRG for all my rifles. A longer forend with full length ARCA incorporated would be perfection.

Don't believe that's any longer than standard.
Hook up the minimalist spigot mount and you just extended it past the extra added length the regular spigot mount provided.Don't believe that's any longer than standard.
The longer forends are the Enclosed Forend which adds I think 5", the same as what a Spigot would add.
The forend and backbone are the length they are because they were originally designed to fit a Sako TRG-22. Our first products to hit the market were all TRG oriented (mag conversion kit, action wrench, then the folding rear a bit later).
We always have stuff in the works so keep an eye out.

I would literally replace all my chassis with Bravos/Xrays if a longer forend with implemented ARCA was a standard option. I'm just not a huge fan of bolting this and that on to achieve something that is a standard offering nowadays from many of your competitors. Keep up the good work!
MDT ACC Chasss $1,099.95, KRG Bravo $349On my ACC, I can put a pic rail under the integral ARCA because there are M-Loc slots on the flat bottom of the chassis...
Someone thought that out and included those slots in the CNC code.
ARCA is so much superior to Pic rails for bipods and barricade stops.
I wouldn't buy a chassis without an ARCA now.
I'm absolutely fine with them raising the retail price to reflect the improvements.MDT ACC Chasss $1,099.95, KRG Bravo $349
If I add the ARCA rail, the adjustable buttpad, a barricade stop on an ARCA clamp, either a regular, ARCA rail, or minimalist spigot mount I'm still nowhere near the ACC price and can still have a Pic rail on the bottom. Case in point a Bravo I currently have waiting for its barreled action to be delivered.
I like that I can add, or leave out what I want when I want, and I like the current price.I

So you are saying to wait until after shot show for an improved Bravo also? Thanks!I just saw that. I'm not pleased at how it is "Bravo inspired", to put it politely, however I'm not unhappy that they didn't make it more attractive, again to put it politely, or price it even close.
Justin
P.S. Our Bravo is getting love this year too, the Spigot Minimalist being the first new accessory item and those started shipping a month or two ago.
That's not how i read this, what I read is more accessory items for the Bravo to follow the minimalist spigot. Based upon "...the FIRST new accessory item..."So you are saying to wait until after shot show for an improved Bravo also? Thanks!

Not in the market for one now, but just curious where on the site the W-3 with Enclosed Forend is located? I'm seeing the Competition setup, but not the enclosed one.Yes that is a pretty recent development. Also for those who may have missed it, we started selling the Whiskey-3 with the Enclosed Forend so if you like that setup you can save some money.
Thank you,
Justin
Go to the Whiskey-3 page and select on the drop down menu where you select Rem, Tikka, Sako, or Badger, SA, or LA it also has with, or without enclosed forend.Not in the market for one now, but just curious where on the site the W-3 with Enclosed Forend is located?

Holy shit I'm stupid. Thanks.Go to the Whiskey-3 page and select on the drop down menu where you select Rem, Tikka, Sako, or Badger, SA, or LA it also has with, or without enclosed forend.
Not stupid, you just overlooked an option.Holy shit I'm stupid. Thanks.
I would like to see some sort of mirage shield that attaches to the spigot mount, an option other than just trying to use the NV mount for something it wasn't really designed for, or using an enclosed forend for the Bravo because the forend doesn't allow use of the T-slot weight.
I don't think they made a big announcement, but KRG has started selling a Whiskey-3 Comp chassis, with the aluminum arca forend and arca spigot. It's a nice discount over buying a W3 and adding those parts yourself:

I've thought about that, however by the time you attach a Picatinny mount on which you have your carbon tube mounted to the bridge you've got the contraption well protruding into your sight picture, it would have to be a plain cover over the spigot mount extending to the front without the NV Pic rail. If KRG came up with one of their elegant solutions for this problem I bet there would be willing buyers like me.I'd just get a carbon tube, chop it to fit, and graft it to a Picatinny mount to attach to the bridge.
KRG already has you covered ARCA rail already on board, all you need is their ARCA clamp and your choice of their barricade stops. The one on my Bravo in the picture is the heavy barricade stop, which I've got mounted in combo with the T-slot forend.Needs a magwell/barricade stop so you don't push into the mag and cause feeding problems if it's going to be a competition chassis.
Slide it anywhere you want it to get perfect balance and prevent barricades from impacting your mag. The options for adding and subtracting weight are plenty between heavy LOP spacers, heavy barricade stop, T-slot weight, and with the Whiskey-3s and X-Ray the heavy bag riders. If you don't want a heavy barricade stop get the barrier multi-tool, or the plain barricade stop. If you don't have enough weight with all of this you can do what I do and add balloons of annealed steel shot to the cavities in the buttstock, and, or grip in the Bravo, achieving balance with all these options is easy.Moves the balance point farther back that way
