    Making sure this is an AW barrel

    last imput on AI Rifle

    Get the AT in .308 and skimp on your optics until you come across the right scope at the right money. I know most people will say don't skimp on optics but you when you get some decent glass you can put the other scope away as a back up. I put a $100 scope on my AW for a year until I could...

    bad finish on my new ai aw bolt

    Re: bad finish on my new ai aw bolt Mine was the same don't worry about it, I get the impression that when they finish the rifle they are far more concerned about protection rather than looks. As others have said it's a military rifle. Rub some oil in it or if it pisses you off that much...
