Unfortunately the Anarchy thumb rest won’t work on fixed (non-folding) chassis due to the fact that there’s not a thru-hole in the tube that connects the main chassis to the buttstock.

How to tell if Bartlien proof or lothar walther?View attachment 7922401View attachment 7922402
When I bought a takeoff barrel from someone here I had the same question. I was told by Mile High that the Bartleins should be 5 groove and the Proofs are 4 groove. Not sure if that holds true across the board but that’s what they told me. Not sure about the LW barrels.

So I noticed that on MHSA, the Proof Research barrels are cheaper than Bartlin barrels. Are there any major differences? I am sure they all shoot great. But what drives the price difference?
 
Proof is corporate owned. I've "heard" that they are a bigger shop and hirer a lot of tool changers to man the CNC machines. Bartlein is probably a relatively small company compared to proof. I have never had an issue with the proof barrel and one of the most accurate barrels have ever had was a proof. I think their barrels are really good but I think in the mass sample size out there Bartlein reigns as the most consistently high performing barrels. And they have a pretty big following so there's a lot of competition to buy their barrels. I think in terms of supply and demand they can charge quite a bit more because people are willing to pay that for a Bartlein barrel.

If you are relatively new to the precision rifle I would just save your duckets and get a proof barrel. I doubt you're going to see a difference between the two. You have to be reloading and shooting at a pretty high level. I think there are a lot of new shooters that agonize over this brand versus that brand and then they feed their rifles factory ammo.
Makes sense. Thank you! I know both brands are reputable. I am going to go with PR then.
 
Ohhh Great and powerful AI Gods...

Asked a question and coming in search of truth

- Can someone tell me if the Competition trigger shown will fit an AW manufactured in 96?

Appreciate the time

Thank you
 
My buddy finally listened and bought a accuracy obsession / vision chassis for his AX.

So helped him with the install. Here is a couple pics

What are the benefits of this chassis? Just curious.

To piggy back on what Ryan said, you get MLOK for any rail attachments including an exterior weight option and internal weight option, grip panels allow any AR15 compatible grip of your choice, and it makes women's panties moist.

I thought one of you fools had tried it fairly recently... Tough to keep you all separate.

Dope! That is the second-best looking AI... Second only to a thumbhole AO, haha!
 
Hey, for an AX, how does that RRS Arca grip replacement block feel to your hands when you grab it and carry the rifle?

I bought the Sawtooth version because it looks way cooler, but damn it hurts to grab and actually carry the gun. The RRS design looks like it would sort of semi-shield one’s hand from the sharpish Arca bits.

The rrs is way better to hold than the sawtooth one... However it is still a big square block with the endges are rounded really smooth...

Is this the one that hurts your little fingers ?

I’d take this all day over that RRS 2x4

View attachment 7927830
😩😭😫 waaaaahhhhhhh!

But yes, my widdle tiny soft baby hands were hurt by that big bad thing!

Looks 20x better though.

If it had been designed so there was material that overhung the Arca angles, it would’ve been tits. That way my Skin-So-Soft™ mitts would rest upon the overhang and not on 45° metal angles.

I assume that’s why the RRS is more comfy.
