Ahh k and m. That brings back memory’s. What a humbling experience. And the mini PRS match at the end is what got me hooked on it.

Create a channel Learn moreI was told to always use 1.35 shanks. Don't know anything about a collarThats the most PITA part about owning a MC/ASR. Still need to figure out how LRI and Sawtooth creates their collar setup for the 1.250" barrels to work on the M30 shanks.
Same boat here. The options I’ve seen are a Proof prefit or custom order something with a 12+ month lead time. Maybe there’s a smith out there with a 1.35” barrel inventory, but they sure as shit aren’t advertising.I cannot believe the lack of availability for AXMC barrel blanks in 308. Not looking for anything exotic. All I want is a 10 twist heavy contour blank
Saw some dude run this QD strap setup for walking around his rifle around stages and figured I'd give it a shot. Hot damn, super comfortable and let's you go hands free without having to set down your rifle, but without the hassle of manipulating a sling over/behind/etc. your pack. I'm probably late for the bus on this one but might be handy for other folks as well.
I've called Fritz at Black Canyon and Dave Tooley...nothing is in stock. I gave Dave a deposit as he may be able to get a Bartlein blank quicker than I can.Same boat here.

Ah I just cut up an old sling I had laying around ... just need a QD swivel, a nylon/whatever strap with a buckle on it and a carabinerThat looks great. How do you get one?
And sold out. What, did they make only 15 of them or something? Lol

That OBi system looks fantastic. I'm the king of rummaging through my pile of crap and cobbling together solutions haha ... my bag rider is an old upside down acog mount with a KRG bag rider bolted to it and I run my tripod out of a cheapo molle bottle holder and a strapI run the OBi link system the same way, but that’s way cheaper if you’ve already got a spare qd swivel. I like it.
Love that morale patch, was telling the neighbors the same thing yesterday when they wanted to talk about the latest neighborhood BS.That OBi system looks fantastic.

I think this was first run and limited quantity.
I’ll be honest, I bought one. If they fix my BRA feeding issues I’ll go back for all my new barrels. I got a dasher up next so if it still sucks feeding, worst case I’ll sell it and move to 308 instead
Try Manzella as wellI've called Fritz at Black Canyon and Dave Tooley...nothing is in stock. I gave Dave a deposit as he may be able to get a Bartlein blank quicker than I can.
This makes me want to rattle can my AT/AO now.......
Best barrel cutter out there very impressive resume with what he did with AITry Manzella as well

Is the 2018 AXMC profile not heavy enough?I cannot believe the lack of availability for AXMC barrel blanks in 308. Not looking for anything exotic. All I want is a 10 twist heavy contour blank
Whoops, that solves that mystery@TylerN yeah, that’s not an AXSR. You probably missed the “AT-X” engraving.
No. I Like MTU or heavy Palma. Is the post 2018 contour different?Is the 2018 AXMC profile not heavy enough?
Post 2018 is similar to heavy Palma.No. I Like MTU or heavy Palma. Is the post 2018 contour different?
WantIF anyone wants old AI green grip and front panels and trade for their new green I'll give up my og green AT skin pieces.

I don't know what the 2018-present contour specifically is (I would presume @Covertnoob5 is correct, as I have read that before), but I do know that it is a heavier contour than pre-2018 barrels).Post 2018 is similar to heavy Palma.
I will definitely give that a shot...THANK YOU!I don't know what the 2018-present contour specifically is (I would presume @Covertnoob5 is correct, as I have read that before), but I do know that it is a heavier contour than pre-2018 barrels).
I only bring it up because of the following, in case that contour fits your needs:
I wanted to have a replacement barrel on hand for the factory barrel that came on my AXSR 300PRC. Since I started looking in July, there were none available from either EO or MH, and neither of them showed an option to backorder. Also, it is Elite Sand - which is the color they just discontinued. Before, I had been able to continue to special-order AI factory 300NM barrels in Sage Green for my AXMC from WinTac (through EO) during the time they had discontinued that color, so I asked EuroOptic to check with WinTac to see if we could put in an order for this one to be built. A few days later the answer came back from WinTac - "Yes, you can order it, and the expected time for production and delivery is 4-5 months." I put in the order through EO on Wednesday. Yesterday, EO received THAT barrel from WinTac and shipped it out to me today, 6 days from the order.
So, if the 2018- profile is acceptable (it IS a fairly heavy contour), you might inquire about ordering an AI OEM barrel (WinTac/Bartlein). I've always been told 4-5 months to deliver, but it has never taken more than 3. But neither have I ever gotten one in six days before, either!
Buy it and don’t look backGot a guy offering me an AI AE in 308 locally. What are those going for these days?
Buy it and don’t look back
Mk i ii or iii ? Folder or non?Got a guy offering me an AI AE in 308 locally. What are those going for these days?
Thanks. I know it's it's good gun. I was specifically wondering about price.
Offer $2K and a handshakeFolder. He wants 2500. The barrel has been shortened and threaded at 20 inches.

Mk i ii or iii ? Folder or non?
ATs are going for 4200-4500 right now. Which I'd take over any of the AE models but for the right price I'd want an AE too.
You misspelled "handjob".
An mkiii folder for 2500 is something I'd easily pay. If you can get it for less even better but if it were ME I'd get it for that.MK III
