AI - ATX LE

[TheNarrator]

Anyone have a line on one these in .308 and 16.5" barrel configuration? Preferably tan or sage.

This is the law enforcement version, preferably new in box.

Mile High sometimes has one that comes back off demo.

 

[Tex68w]

MHS and/or Europtic would be your best bet.

Probably faster to buy one used and cut the forend down and slap a short barrel on it.

7axis Dremel ftw!

If you are talking about the new AT-X LE with the short forend in .308 then those are only sold to departments per contract. There is a very specific way an individual officer can get one for duty use, but I am not sure of it.

From what I gather we are the only place that sells the AT-X LE.

So long story short it would be faster to cut a civilian one yes.

 

[anon]

An over-run of short uppers that will fit both the AT-X and AT-XC would probably turn into a quickly sold out group buy. I'd be in for two. Raw would be fine, the rattle can doesn't need to know.

 

[freezerbyrne]

I’d be in for something like that as well.

It'd be such a high roller move to take an angle grinder to an AI

Better to use a Band Saw, but yeah.

I’m sending this atx out to get cut at the left edge of the tape. 18” barrel should hit on the left edge of the tape on the barrel. In effect I will have an atx-le when it’s done. Although, it won’t be as clean looking as a factory chassis.

Who is doing the work? Would love to see the end result.

That’s the best spot to cut, but it’s a little shorter than the LE. Not by much tho.

You will need a medium Bridge to ensure it’s fully supported, and be cutting down the factory pic rail to ensure.

 

[CStroud]

Yeh so I got the medium bridge, but unsure if I want to cut it that far back now as all my barrels are 18”+. Decisions decisions.

Hear ya. Still cogitating on what barrel I’m going with.

The 277 Hybrid in the shorter barrel makes a ton of sense with an expected 3,000fps out of 16” or so. Problem is, I have no idea how consistent the ammo SD is.

 

[CStroud]

I’m thinking I’m just going to cut it at the last forend bridge screw…happy medium I suppose.

I would keep it as is and start calling your rifle James William Bottomtooth III.

Fritz at Black Canyon. He will be opening up my bolt to run 6.5 prc.
