New 6CM barrel showed up from Proof today. Just waiting on a long bridge from across the pond and maybe, one day if I'm a good boy, a hinge.

Did you have that cerakoted gray/tungsten....or it it just the lighting and it's actually black......or elite sand playing tricks again?
No sir, it’s just a standard black version in odd lighting making it look that way. I thought the same thing myself after I posted it.
This will be getting cerakoted or rattle canned… just haven’t decided which route or if I have it in me to spray bomb an AI…
Thanks. You should get it tungsten.....or maybe tungsten base with Kryptek pattern on top.
I like the tungsten idea or some variation of. Had a couple ideas with vintage camos, too.
Can’t do kryptek, something in me that’s fundamentally against it. Heard someone call it the “Nickleback of camo” and it’s hit home.
Go fuck yourself you non binary dick. I don't even own an AI. I rarely visit here and have begged to have my account permanently deleted to no avail. That is not trolling. It is google searching an LGS and this shit show comes in the search results. Fucking nimrod. BTW, same old shit on the moderators shit show I see. "You fucking banned me wah wah wah" more like , "wah wah wah the moderators fucking gang banged me wah wah wah". Eostech, don't invite me to your fucking enema. That is trolling, shit face
Do you blame them? This site is over populated with dumbasses and whiners. Didn't used to be like this and I'm surprised your still a regular. I guess because most of the experts have left leaving you at a respected highest level of incompetence. Stay golden, Pony Boy. We gotta do it for Johnny!
Try installing the shim. I haven’t spoke to anyone that has one installed where their rifle doesn’t feed from a good or bad mag and where the bolt doesn’t stop on an empty mag.
An AI service centre if you are in Europe or you’ll have to make one yourself as others have done.
Your wish is my command....
Not always…I feel like AI's need TBAC suppressors.
Everything else looks out of place on an AI
New Abel titanium can - In final testing now should be on the market in a month or so.

Hey, I thought that was supposed to be kept quiet ...

Just being pedantic @Defender3 But you have your Spuhr rings on wrong.
The ring with the lower number with the lines is the back one, helps you visualize that your optic is in line with your mount.
The ring with the threaded mounts is the front one, for accessories.
At least you have the bubble level on the right side! LOL
Just had to say something.

Finally got around to breaking in my 6.5 barrel. Suddenly it’s a failure to feed 2-3 times per mag. Never happened with 308 but 6.5 and the bolt glides right over the cartridge. 
Kryptek is gross, dont do this.
PSA for those with the AT-X “standard” height action rail: you can’t run a ZCO Tenebraex front scope cap if you’re using a ZCO 5-27/Spuhr SP-6002 1.5” mount combo and plan to use the long bridge with the full length picatinny rail.
I’m sure they’ll “take care of me”. Have a big fucking match next weekend though so
@Darkside-Six Where are you located? Do you have someone you can borrow a bolt from?
If not, hit me up - I'll loan you mine...just don't tear any lugs off or anything. LOL

Neither have I. And I was only dry firing just now. Guess my kung fu grip is strong!
I’m in MI. I think I have a guy but need to ask. AI is usually very good at getting stuff back out so fingers crossed.
I would ask for a bolt body replacement they can ship that same day
I imagine that’s what they’re gonna have to do cause this is pretty broke.
I knew the bolt lift was heavy, comparatively, but damn!!
Bro. It's been a while since I literally laughed out loud from a SH post. You won the intrawebz for the day, Sir.

I see they finally rolled out the folding bolt handle.
Better late than never.
I’m mainly a poser. I fold like that bolt handle when someone arm bars me.
Used it last night. Bottom half guard, they tried to roll out, I rolled with to top mount.
Taught it last week to my wife and the police officers she works with as defense when on your back and the perp goes for your sidearm. It’s always a hit.
You almost wish they would go for it......too easy
I can see now how it fits together. My guess is the weld was weak but who knows. Hopefully nobody else has the issues.

While it’s obviously a rare break (like maybe 1 of 1 rare)…..
The timing and that it happened to an X rifle is nothing short of hilarious.

Been there... but with a Gap Tempest
I feel like I remember someone posting on the hide last year or maybe 2 years ago with the same thing. Might have dropped the gun and landed on bolt handle or something. That's probably the only other time I've heard of that happening.
I swear I was only dry firing. Lol. This gun is like my baby. I take care of my shit. Just glad it didn’t happen at the match this last weekend.
Yea that's what's crazy. I understood it when dude broke his bc I think the rifle fell or something but yours must have been doomed to break.
Nah, I remember it being used in the argument that Ais aren't as "bomb proof" as advertised by their owners in arguments. It was def an AI
Maybe that was it and I misremembered it. Dude. You're like a walking SH thesaurus.
