Did the male part slide through the chassis easily mine will not push in?

Mine does, but only after I removed the quiver...
Ordered! Thank you, Sir!It's exactly that one; bugholes.com AI bag rider. (this time I'm typing up that URL from my computer so my phone auto-correct doesn't have it's way with their name.)
Mine was a bit oversized and wouldn’t fit. I sanded it down a bit until it fit.Mine went in easily as well, didn't take any hammers
We finally have SOAR R-LOCK available for order for your AT-X

www.bisontactical.com Pretty annoying the stock wont fold with the hoptic quiver. Why the hell did they put keyslot in that spot if the rifle can't even function properly with exactly what (I assume) was intended to go there?
Folds fine with the quiver if you have the AXSR stock.
Ah so just need to give AI another 1000 bucks for a stock rifle to function correctly. Sounds reasonable.
Just got off the phone with Mile High. My AT-X in FDE ordered in September 2021 will be shipping to my FFL.
Couple show room models at mhsa. I seen on Instagram that dealers took orders in March and should be an August ship date roughly.
I saw that too but never saw anywhere to order? Guess you had to call?
Not sure they have taken customer orders yet but I’m sure calling is best
I decided to swap stocks to try it out; with my LOP the stock and quiver fit but the butt-pad wheel is also slightly still contacting the quiver but not enough to prevent it from closing.
Needs a blue full length bridge and sage green magazine now to complete the look:
Any issue running the quiver on the back of the arca section?
For your consideration:
A like new fixed buttstock adapter up for sale today. Rare FDE color. $500.00
Hope the mods see the humor
You beat me to it. I'll let mine go for $450 - should be a quick sale.
My elite sand finally came in. All I can say is I’m satisfied, at least coming from a history of strictly custom rem 700 pattern builds, I can appreciate having a rifle built from a company like AI from the ground up. I know it’s had it’s issues, although mine has had no feeding problems as a Gen 2..
How do I tell what generation I have? I assume I can call AI with my serial number? I picked mine up “used”
Seems silver set screws are Gen 1. Black set screws are Gen 2. Gen 3 not released yet but will have thumb screws
Took the Gen2 out today; had the range to myself.
Thanks for the heads-up
Returned from Jordan and had a chance to take the 6BR out to zero. A bright and sunny 91 degrees at Quantico's Ironman range.
I had to create a shooting lane by pulling out the overgrown grasses so I had a sight picture. Range maintenance is slacking...
After zero, the first five groups, always a flyer! Next step is to test test the SOCOM 7.62RC and Deadair to see which is a better fit.

Only for the first rifles already shipped.
Or if you called and ordered it…
Whats that thumb rest and did you have to tap your receiver?
XLR Thumb Rest and yes
Adjustable Thumb Rest
Get a solid and repeatable rest for your thumb with the versatile XLR adjustable thumb rest. Achieve optimal comfort and control today!
xlrindustries.com Whats that extra screw behind the action about?
It holds the top and bottom portion of the chassis together. In the manual it's referred to as the rear chassis assembly screw.
ES with 6mm CM Proof. Now it just needs some range time.
That one is from forum member @pfl338, he sells 3D printed parts on ebay and can be found by searching for his user name. I recommend his tenon protectors also, work well and are a good value.
We have just one DE rifle inbound if anyone is still looking for one, shoot me a PM. Edit. Sold.

Wearing a long bridge and I'll try the Sandman-L, then the SOCOM 7.62-RC.
What's the barrel length here? 24?
Yes, 24.
I added a Dead Air brake and was going to test it against the Surefire, but the brake and Sandman-L performed so well I'm leaving them as is. AT-X in 6BR at the Izaak Walton 100yrd range.
Target testing the DA brake and Sandman shooting 105gr factory Lapua. Top left is the first group - I needed to settle in a bit. Top right is with a zero adjustment up and left. Windage was good but I went too high. Bottom left is with the Dead Air Sandman-L. Bottom right is also suppressed with a zero adjustment. That BL group, albeit prone and with a bag, tells me this barrel and cartridge will perform if I do my part.
I shot other groups for velocity testing with the Labradar and while they opened up, they were still averaging well under .75MOA. Velocity of the Lapua was lower than I expected averaging only 2666fps. I assume the barrel will speed up a bit once I get a few more rounds out.

The screw #2 was torque by AI to 83847484 ft lbs and was stripped. So can’t install the retaining piece for my folding hinge. Hopefully a screw extractor can get it out and AI sends me a new screw
Finally arrived from MHSA! Just over five months wait.
FDE from Mile High. Ordered September. Picked up this week.
I'm looking at upgrading my bipod on the AT-X. I was thinking of getting an Atlas BT46-NC. Is the Area 419 adapter or the Really Right Stuff BTC-Pro better than the other?
the RRS adapter does arca and picatinny so you can easily bounce the bipod between many guns.
With regards to the bipod, I dont really find myself using the cant feature much and it is more of a hindrance than a benefit for me, but thats a personal preference thing. With the legs being able to cant I find that the rifle can recoil when using it erratically based on leg-squareness.
