What would it look, if you add TRG folder from KRG to Bravo
.
I just might have that money in the sock for that folder, or fixet.
I dont necessary need that folder, fixed would be great too.

It would look like a W3 folderWhat would it look, if you add TRG folder from KRG to Bravo

Like this ('cept with the additional foldy bits):
Thanks for the info. I ordered one today for my X-Ray. IMHO the Bravo ergonomics are way better than the X-Ray.
final product
I was able to finagle it and mount my HRD gear arca rail to the bravo using the hardware I already had fromy XLR chassis using the little oval threaded washers that came with the bravo.
so far I like the Bravo

Dont you feel that the LOP is too short for you, since you have not added those LOP spacers?
I have all 3 and i also have the tool-less butpadd.
For sure i am 6,4", but every one i know that use Bravo, has few spacers on the stock.

I haven’t really laid behind it or messed with it. But I tend to like shorter, for barricades and such. I sat it next to my XLR and it’s pretty much set up the exact same as far as LOP
My Bravo butstock and forend arrived (ordered Wednesday, received Friday), installed on my X-Ray backbone. Now I have two Bravos, one FDE and the other Sako Green. Going to the range today to test.
Are you able to order just the butstock and forend only?
That's a much more elaborate reply than "feed lip issues"
I appreciate all the effort. Bro move for sure
If any of you guys were waiting around like me, KRG has got ARCA spigots back in stock.
Any new products in the works?
Quick question: I ordered the mag on Sep 8. Money was taken out of the account same day. No movement with any kind of shipment info. Fired off email inquiring about the status on the 15th. Today, I left a voice mail at 714-381-2885. Still nothing. It's been 2 full weeks and absolutely nothing! Can't say that I am too impressed right now. Any hints on when the thing might actually ship?
Tell me about the paint job on the bravo.
What is it and how did you do it?
I can’t believe that someone’s recomended the alpha mag, you’re now getting the only experience I’ve ever heard of with them, ignoring you for months on end. Some claim to get them two weeks after ordering, some six months without a word.
Sure the mags function great: but that’s only if you ever actually get one.

Under the paint is Sako green base color.
Style how i did the paint job is simple.
Use sponge, expendable plates and good quality matte spray paint.
Use your inner artist and dab the color of the different colored plates and then to the stock.
I have done some of those old school camo painting, and those are PITA.
Too much tape work, and this style is quite good looking, they use this same style in the Manners stock painting, and there i go this idea to paint like the pro.
Most importand thing is to get good paints, matt, and be bold, you can over paint if you screw up the job.
And every one do the job like they want, there is no one way to do it, just execute your self, you will like it
I truly don't understand why you're asking me when I'm not a party to the transaction you refer to.
Probably because you’re the one that recomended he try that scammers mags.
I got mine without an issue and they work extremely well.
I'm sure they work quite nicely, but in all honesty, I think I'm going to call my CC company on Monday and have them contest the charge. In today's world, 2 weeks is plenty of time and this company has given exactly zero effort which is pretty indicative of a scam. Just another reason to hate having to deal with a different mag....
Alright gentleman, this is my final product after messing around with going back and forth for 2 weeks. Adding weight to rear, grip, and butthook, I lined the cavity with Saran Wrap and took #8 shot from shotgun shells, and covered it with excess Saran Wrap. As for the fore end, I went from adhesive wheel weights, to double sided tape and Saran wrapped #8 shot, to now and ending with lead decoy weights from academy. 3.5 oz each strip and had to trim to fit accordingly. Good thing with this lead, it’s soft enough to cut.

I think you could ask from the KRG, that could they send you the factory made cheekpad for Tikka, but it is almost the same you do it by our self.
All they do is dremmel and file them for now. New molded ones are coming sometime but for now that’s all they are doing.
The molded ones are coming in about 2 months roughly. For now we take the standard cheekpiece and cut it on the mill.
To reiterate, the standard cheekpiece does keep the bolt from traveling all the way to rear at some heights. However, this is due to Tikka putting long action bolt stops in short action calibers in most instances that we've seen.
You don't actually need the bolt to travel all that way rearward when you have a short action caliber (i.e. anything feeding from a regular AICS .308 size mag). With the correct bolt stop, the cocking indicator alone will still hit the cheekpiece but at a pretty narrow range of cheek heights which are higher than the typical shooter will use.
Thank you guys for your business!

Any plans to incorporate the Area 419 Arcalock features into your current ARCA products?

So wish your Bravo stocks for Howa rifles would get through to South Africa! They look great.
Thanks for the info guys. I have a set of Warne low rings that would lower the scope maybe 1/8", which would probably let me lower the cheek piece enough for it to clear. I chose to use a set of Vortex precision matched rings that are just a little higher because it is easier to remove the scope. Getting enough clearance looks like SN easy job with a dremel and file.
That is one way to limit the bolt movement, but it will cost, cheapest is 40$.

Original Tikka T3 short action bolt stop you may find in the Brownells.

I'd like to give a big thank you to the folks ar KRG. I emailed them about the cheek piece for a Tikka Bravo. The next morning I had a response. Today I received an order from them that I placed the same day as the email. To my surprise, there was a new cheek piece in the box. Can't ask for better customer service than that.
I was asking about your suppressor. But now I realize you are outside the U.S. so you probably have different options than we do. I would still like to know more about it if you don't mind. I have been looking at buying a Delta P Brevis II suppressor that is short and fat, kind of like the one in your picture.
Bravos are working out so far
What kind of material is that on the grip and on the cheek riser?
Skateboard tape on grip I purchased from my local bicycle shop. they sold it in 12"x12" sheets and it was cheap for as much as I got. foam with adhesive in riser. the link where I purchased it from.. https://holsterops.com/products/cheek-pad-for-rogers-super-stock I purchased 4 of them bc I knew shipping would be a little bit, I think $8.
