That meme is really coming for me.

 

[malsa82]

Oooh ooooh!

Approx how much distance off center?

 

[oldrifleman]

At the last minute I decided to switch my new 223 build from a dark distressed Centurian to a natural (just could never get it out of my brain). Now to wait 7 more weeks ...

 

[dirtybores]

I was kinda concerned this stock profile might not work out, but it feels really nice in-hand.

 

[K80/6.5]

Got my new to me stock today had to do a little Dremel work on the bolt handle port to fit the origin bolt, the stock was for a tl3. Will clean it up a little better before sealing it but functions perfectly. Has anyone used a Salmon river solution hunter arca/pic full length rail on the Revelation? I think it would follow the shape of the forearm better than a full length arca rail.

 

[oldrifleman]

I love the natural finish, I have one on order, looking forward to it.

Too heavy for me frankly

I definitely (in a perfect world) would love the thumb shelf and stippling on my Centurion. But the weight of the Samson is too hefty for me to get one.

 

[NateVA]

Anyone else see the new Gideon hybrid hunting stock? I'd kill for a thumb shelf on it but otherwise looks good depending on weight.

The had a couple of them at the PRS finale last weekend. I handled one briefly, it felt very nice in the hand and a lot like an MG2 style grip. Very light weight as well.

Would love to shoot one someday to see how they feel.

On the samson and the Genesis gen 2 how long are the forends?

 

[Sheldon N]

On the samson and the Genesis gen 2 how long are the forends?

MG2 is about 12.5 inches from center of front action screw to end of the stock. Arca rail sticks out another 1.25 inches beyond the fore end.

 

[Schw15]

On the Samson they offer two grips which one is better for somewhat bigger hands?

Both the MG2 grip and the Centurion style grip are fine for big hands. It just depends if you prefer a vertical style grip that's closer to the trigger (Centurion) or a more traditional slightly angled grip with a bit more distance to the trigger (MG2).

Snagged a black mg2 with tungsten from a buddy. It’s super nice…I will call it Charlie Murphy

22 Arc night hunting rig.

Any idea what the Gideon weighs?

 

[Wade]

2.6# with a short arca rail. The rifle is just under 11# with Scythe suppressor and voodoo-s.

I thought the MDT bottom metal was based around the Badger version.......just confirming the Hawkins does work with the MDT with the adj mag latch?

 

[Schw15]

Does any have a krg whiskey 3 chassis they can compare the length of the forends with the foundation samson? Or any foundation just for my mind. Above the guy gave me some measurements and I'm not 100% sure I'm right with the forend being 14 they almost look or based on that measurement 16 inches

 

[Criver600]

Sent my old .223, 700 5R, and a Bartlien 8 twist 5R off to LRI to blueprint and chamber. It's going to be sitting in this. I'm very impressed.

Yes, the MDT is M5 pattern, so it'll work with Foundations as well. I have tried on all 3 of mine and its been perfect. The adjustable mag latch is so nice.

 

[malsa82]

25x47! Samson Genesis 2. I had to remove 4 of the internal forend weights to better balance it after adding the CHAD, which is quite heavy. LP Fuzion, CRB barrel, chambered by Left Edge Precision.

It’s natural, looks better in person.

Anybody have experience with a Samson in long action? Thinking about selling my MG2 and grabbing one.

Gotta be pretty close to the SA variant no? I haven't handled one yet to be honest I much prefer the aesthetics of the OG foundations. Not saying that won't change when I do get to fondle one but the OGs are way better on the eyes for sure.

The new adjustable butt plate does pique my interest though.

I have one on order when it gets here I will let you know what I think. I got behind some short action genesis and centurion before I ordered mine.

It’s nice, I purchased one separately for my MG2.

Since i took a picture for another Forum, i thought, why don´t show it here, too ?
So, here it is:

Bergara B14 Premiere Elite, which came with a MDT ACC Elite Chassis
26" MTU Barrel from Bergara with a Area419 Muzzle Brake
TT Diamond Trigger
6.5 Creedmoor
Athlon Ares ETR 4.5-30x56
MDT Elite Scope Rings
Internal Weights in the front of the Stock are built by a Friend of mine

The Carbon Fibre Mirage Shield and the Case is from my F-T/R Rifle

Color on the Stock is "Alpin", don´t know if that is a special Color for our Importet or not.

 

[Painterbolt]

Just got my Samson. Does anybody know what the threaded inserts are for on the side. Still trying to figure out the best way to use my off hand on barricades.
