Coming up on 8 weeks waiting for warranty replacement sling swivel studs for my AT.
I can’t say that I’m impressed

I’m sure it’s in the thread here already but who’s handling the warranty and who did you talk to about it besides them?Coming up on 8 weeks waiting for warranty replacement sling swivel studs for my AT.
I can’t say that I’m impressed
I’m not sure who it was at AINA that I’ve been emailing as they no longer sign emails with their name since they’d rather remain anonymous it appears.
I tried going through MHSA but they said I might as well go through AINA since they’d have to order them too as despite their best efforts to find some in their shop they didn’t have any extras.
I ordered a set through Sporting Services UK at the same time so I’m curious if those will come before the warranty replacements from AINA. It wouldn’t surprise me if they do though.
Ok. Sounds typical for AINA. I’ve used MH for several AI items (not warranty) and Kent has gone above and beyond to answer questions and check with armorers in the shop for parts I needed. That would have been my suggestion but seems you’ve tried that already
I’m assuming SS didn’t have them in stock when you ordered? I bought thumb wheel cheek piece screws from them recently and they arrived in a few days
Yeah MHSA tried and I don’t blame them as they are at the mercy of AI/AINA.
I do blame AI/AINA though as there’s no reason whatsoever that they shouldn’t have at least one (or a set if that’s how they come) of every part for every rifle that they support in stock. Colored parts like rails could just be stocked in black to reduce inventory costs.
I guess they figure that you just need to have spare rifles since you may have one down for months because of a small part being out of spec from the factory.
I know I’m ranting a bit but I just can’t believe how bad AI sucks at supporting their products in regards to civilian customers. I’m guessing if I was a LEO or MIL customer this wouldn’t be an issue and I would have had them within a week.

Perhaps my last season with my AI
is want a custom action but can't afford to keep both
What's the hold up with SS UK?
The item not in stock?
My recent order with then (not to the US) took about a week to arrive.
Correct. They didn’t have them in stock so they were ordered along with a spare buttpad and set of side rails.
It seems like they are getting parts somewhat regularly from AI, so hopefully not an obscenely long wait.
It looks like a Proof CF 20” 308 AI SA barrel is getting ready to go cheap on eBay if anyone needs one.

I can guarantee that if you get rid of the AI there will be a point that you wish you had kept it
This is correct. I would keep it and figure it out. The grass is not greener.
I may not have a lot of love for AI as a company, however, my AT's will never be sold.
I’m sorry sir, your AI
score has been too low for some time. Your AT’s will self destruct in ten minutes. Please leave them on your lawn to minimize property damage.Sporting Services UK wins the race as the flush cups that I ordered have arrived at their store along with the side rails.
It's insane to me that a dealer can get parts faster than AINA.

Yeah. The stuff I ordered from SS showed up in good time. I prefer dealing with them vs AINA.
...and the market for Remington action clone AICS chassis variants shows no sign of slowing down.....
Whew! Good thing AI doesn't make these anymore....they wouldn't want these guys losing out on this cornered market...

This chassis was part of the limited release of military surplus ones 4-5 years ago. It has seen clear use, and based off of the IMUNS and wear was likely a Navy SEAL issued chassis. IMUNS is the correct “M” marked military version, and is as issued with the chassis.

I know I'll get heat for this, but paying anything close to an AI for any clone that uses a R700 is just asinine.
It’s almost like stuff made in the UK gets to UK stores faster than it gets to the U.S. That seems crazy to me.

Thank you for a much needed comedy break at the end of a long day.

Who gives a shit, really? Transgender stuff.
Here’s a DRMO that I turned into a long action 308.
A 308!
And there’s a 30-06 too. Fuck it.
That is insane even by AI standardsHow is this bag over $1000?

I should see if they can get me a LH AXMC 300WM bolt body
As it turns out despite no further contact or replies from AINA they must have also received them from AI as I got a FedEx notification that they sent me something.
That tells me that AINA has absolutely no priority for warranty parts or orders in general which I find odd considering they’re the distributor for an entire continent.
Oh well. I guess I have 3 sets of flush cups heading my way now.

Glad you liked it! Felt the urge to have some wordplay fun.
Last I looked into it, an unverified-in-hand (by me) yes for a third party rear AT, and a no for an AT front. Can’t remember where I found the rear.
I’ve decided to efff flush cups and use BFG uLoops plus Magul’s paraclip adapter; btw they make an mlok paraclip too.
Seems promising after my initial traipsing around the house with my one trial paraclip up front (flush cup on the rear) with the AT. Quieter too.
Also noticed that that middle sling position by the handgrip really balances the load out sometimes.
Now is when somebody pipes up and alerts me to some Sig 320-level uLoop+paraclip failure rate/negligence…please no dear god no
I ordered two, but I used my STAR Card….because that’s what heroes do.The realest post ever

Not really, no. In theory something custom could be made that replaces the side rail mounting plates, but that doesn't exist to my knowledge. The anti-rotation AI QD mount I designed only spans 3 keyslot holes, where the AI side plates span 4 holes, so that wouldn't work either.
Back in the day I designed and prototyped AT front weights with integrated QD cups that fit into the front panels where the AI side plates go, but never made any production parts.
Taking money from people who have more money than common sense or logic is bad why? I mean, if I put my MK13 Mod 5 inspired project up for sale and they want to give it to me that kind of money... far be it for me to turn them down
Once seen a business card with the saying “it’s immorally wrong to allow suckers to keep their money.”

This must be why I don’t have any money.
