Re: MagnetoSpeed Chronograph Review Just following up... MagnetoSpeed quickly sent me a replacement for the broken "click cam" plastic piece, no hassles. In email they said that they "seemed to have some inconsistency in material properties in this last batch of plastic and are working to...

Re: markings on ai bipod My genuine AI bipod has no markings.

Re: MagnetoSpeed Chronograph Review I received my MagnetoSpeed a couple weeks ago, and finally had a chance to take it out to the range today for some quick testing. <span style="font-weight: bold">The Good</span> Bottom line is that it's great. It's incredible just how much more convenient...

Re: difference between hard cases? I think most people feel that the Storm latches are easier to open (not that they accidentally open more easily, but that it's easier on your fingers with their "push button" release). Looks like this old thread also has many folks who have compared them...

Re: My Lucas Bore Guide Arrived Today I received mine as well. I have what is probably a dumb newbie question -- the bore guide comes with two pieces: one that is the bore guide, and then another piece that can slide inside of that. What is the inner piece used for? Just to make the opening...

Re: Source for AI AW muzzle cap? Thanks for the tip. Turns out that part (0945) isn't what I thought it was... I am looking for something I can screw on to the barrel threads and still shoot. Mile High sent me a picture of the muzzle cap they have and it looks like just a plastic sleeve that...

I'm trying to find a muzzle cap (barrel thread protector) for my AI AW for those times that I need to take the muzzle brake off. I've looked around on the web and emailed a couple of AI dealers but didn't get responses. Can anyone suggest someone I should get in touch with who is likely to stock...

Re: NFA Trust... do it yourself forms... ??? One thing that is nice about this "do it yourself" document is that it seems like it is specifically oriented to NFA Trusts (unlike other do-it-yourself Living Trust products such as WillMaker or other downloadable forms). As it seems to be a...

Re: Best .308 for under $3500? "Best" is probably relative to the type of shooting you want to do with it. If you want a factory rifle that you don't need to tweak at all, then Sako TRG-22 or AIAE. If you want a very accurate rifle for practical match shooting under unpredictable adverse...

Re: I need a safe/armory I'll throw in another vote for the Amsec safes. Their BF series are exceptionally good safes for the money. Meth-heads won't be able to pry it open no matter how hard they try, and if it's bolted down it'll be tough for anyone to try to steal the whole thing...

Re: Are all AI AW (factory) threaded barrels M18x1.5? Thanks everyone. My barrel does have markings like those in jasonk's post, and the bottom of the muzzle brake assembly has an "NP" marking on it. So it sounds like it's a UK barrel with M18x1.5 threads. Thanks again!

I have a question about the barrel threads on a new AI AW .308. The rifle came from the factory with 26" threaded barrel and standard muzzle brake. I know that they have traditionally had M18x1.5 metric threads. But I saw over on the Thunder Beast Arms FAQ that some AIs have shipped with...
