Get all Near stuff for the TRG. His stuff is cheaper, and better quality than factory Sako.

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

I have a TRG42 Stealth and it has got a new chassis.
I am extremely satisfied, its definitely nicer than the previous one.

The new chassis are the extentended version, and it comes witha quad rail.
I think that the solution that both Sako and AI have with a bipod infront of the forend is so much better than solutions under the foreend.

The new folder are improved with a higher buttspike, and steadyer solding solution, and an improved buttplate adjustability.
This is definitely better than the previous one, and the folding stock makes the TRG a much nicer weapon to shoot and handle as the stock lenght easaly gets adjusted betwen different positions.
I have about 1,25" longer stock when shooting prone than with other positions, and I expect that everybody really needs a longer stock for prone if everything should be optimized

Of course I have my own scopemount on the guns.
A mount attached directly to the gun, instead of having an extra rail in betwen.
Scopemount with various attachments and built in level.
Extremely good visiability of the Knobs

How the heck did you get an AN/PEQ-15 in Sweden... aren't those export restricted? Nice setup, BTW. Your bases/rings are out of this world. Cheers, Sirhr

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

Yet another swedish TRG... Here's mine. Originally black TRG-22 upgraded with folding stock, Spuhr mount, S&B 4-16, Roedale brake, and a custom-made rail for mounting a Harris bipod in front of the stock. Oh, and it's duracoated FDE. Seriously considering a full paint-job, a 260 Rem barrel, an Atlas bipod, a...

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

Man, at first I didn't like the look of the collapsible stock. But it has grown on me and I really dig it now. Just wish they didn't cost so much.

 

[mdmp5]

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

Spuhr, that is a really hot looking setup you have there.

 

[Big_Daddy]

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

Spuhr, super sweet scope mount. Looks robust as all get out and I love the Aimpoint T1 mounted on that for up close work, very innovative. Now I want one. Damn this place is going to cost me a fortune.

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

can you give us some more info on the new stock , extended chassis and rear monopod, cant find anything on these , there not for sale here in the uk

 

[Spuhr]

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

I have no info about the stock, it's very possible it's not yet availble for sale.

For those of you interested in the scopemount there is a groupbuy going on until the end of August.
Those mounts are also availible for Picatinny, AI and Sauer.

Here is the orignal thread about the mount I started up a year ago when I started working on the mount solution.

If the owner needs it to be that color to do its job that's what he needs. Who cares what it looks like. I don't know why your post reminded me of tools....oh wait. </div></div>

Obviously someone cares what it looks like since an entire thread is devoted to pictures of the things. So if someone bothers to post a pic it's fair game to comment on. All the other pics were good lookers, this one looked like crap. And I don't know of any rifle that needs to have such a fugly paint job to "do its job" and wasn't aware that any rifle shot better because of paint. Unless the owner of that rifle needs to camo his stick so it blends in with kindygarten finger paintings then your just plane wrong.

But from the few fellas who responded to my comment, I'm sorry that I offended your retarded sister or wife. Her rifle is ugly, no two ways about it, and she should stop postinqg pics if she dont like comments. Maybe this rifle is now know as a trig due to the tarded paintjob.
I knew damn well good enough to not screw up a perfectly good rifle with a shitty paint job (my way of saying that my trg looks exactly like it did when it left the factory, other than having a scope up top). </div></div>

The point is, if you think it's ugly keep it to yourself. No on really wants to hear your rude comments. Also, funny how less than a week on the forum, you are starting shit how old are you? 15?

TRG 42 range report...

Had a 500 yd zero with the 45 MOA base, so to shoot 100 yds, I had to use a 2 mil hold-under. Chronied at ~3000 fps with 250 SMK over 97 gr of H1000, 0.025" from the lands (max length the magazine allowed for). Was only 4.5 mils to 1000 yds.

There was about 5-8 mph wind today, but the bullets hit wherever I put the crosshairs at 1000. Hit the 10 ring (F class) at 1000 3 out of 3 shots.

All in all, the rifle performed excellent. Almost zero recoil with the Near brake, although the concussion was quite violent.

The folder only comes in green or tan. Where did you find one for $1750? Best I found was $1850.

Whats with the blue bolt knobs in some of these pics?

 

[Geronimo]

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

Think it was gunbroker had one, he wanted to have a blue bolt knob so he painted it lol, their site makes it sound like you can't upgrade if you have a black stock.

</div></div>

No prob. I should have actually put up a post on this particular part. This is Sako part # S5740397. It is simply a threaded flush cup with a square base and a female threaded collar. You slide the flush cup into the rail on the side as I did, or you can use the rail on the bottom of the forend. You then screw on the collar and tighten it down very snug. Now you have a flush cup on the forend. Note that the part comes shiny silver, which may not be most peoples' cup of tea. I duracoated mine black.

I painted my knob blue just for the hell of it. It actually makes it easier to spot when you have to remove the bolt repeatedly, as I had to do when shooting the course over at thunder valley. Less chance of losing it. I may paint it a different color when I camo the stock this week.

 

[mdmp5]

Re: TRG Rifles picture thread.....??

Does anyone know how to get the bottom rail off the forend? You have to remove all the screws, which isn't a problem, but there is one nut that is on there that I can't get off. I can't fit an open end wrench or socket wrench to get it off.
