Guessing you need a return authorization? What is the typical turn around?I'm gonna send my two atx mags in for updates then, much appreciated.

The new one looks much better. I’m going to drive my mags over to them Friday.This is the new updated spring/follower on the left.
okie, tksYes, I just emailed [email protected] and explained the issue I was dealing with. They sent an RA and shipping label.
Turn around was very good, 1-2 weeks max.
Mine nose dives occasionally. Also, the mag that came with it seems to have more feeding problems than other mags I have, but I’ve been leaving about a 1/4 inch between the cartridge base and rear of the mag well, which seems to help a bit..So I had my AT-X for sale near 6 months and it didnt sell. Gonna keep it now and run a 6mm chamber of some sort. I am fully stocked on 6gt brass. Has anyone experienced feeding issues with gt cases in the atx? It kinda in no man's land between br using hrd kits, and full creed length. Has anyone tried the new atx follower with higher spring pressure and angled ramp with gt cases? I've read where guys are loading the rounds forward to where shoulder is at the rib to get reliable feeding.
Nothing like a tl3, feels like a 60° 1903 springfieldHow does the action feel compared to a Tl3?
I am thinking of maybe ordering one in left hand. Love the red.

I have the forend bridge and full length rail as well but you need the high action rail to correctly line up with the forend bridge. Probably would be able to clip on without it but it drives me nutsWell, I finally went and ordered my first AI. My new AT-X shipped yesterday from EO, along with my long forend bridge. I've spent the last day reading pages 1-50 and 91-current on this thread, but still have a couple questions for the experienced:
* I should probably add here that this is a fun rifle that will see 99% informal target/steel shooting, and maybe 1% taken out hunting.
1) With the forend bridge... (no rail, just bridge, I run a thermal scope in its own dedicated QD mount on other rifles), will a mount in a 1.35" range give me enough clearance over the bridge, as well as allow me to smash my face down on the cheek piece and still get in the eyebox? I'll be running either a 50 or 56mm objective lens scope. I know 1.5" will work, but is a bit high for my personal tastes...and I think guys had issues getting behind the scopes with stuff in the 1.1" range. If a 1.5" is required for 56mm objective lens scopes, I'm fine with that.
2) For the guys running the AX bag rider, where did you get them? My Google-fu skills find every other bag rider except. If they are just pilfers off of other rifles, I have no problem breaking down and getting something a little fancier.
3) Aside from going into the bathroom and touching #1s together, are there any other secret handshakes that I need to know about when being a member in the AI club?
Thanks in advance.

Please hit me up if you locate one, I've had one on back order thru Euro Optics for a bit, was told it will be a while.I run a 1.35” as well, only downside is I cannot remove the bolt without raising the cheek rest. Find a folding hinge ASAP & problem solved if you need to remove the bolt & it helps with running a cleaning rod.
Thanks. I removed the AI butt pad and installed a thin pacmeryer and removed about 1/2", I'm trying to get it closer to 12 1/4 or 12 1/2. Gonna see if I cannot somehow remove the adjustabile butt function on the existing atx butt. I have a folder already which didn't affect LOP at all.Something like this. I could get a quarter inch shorter if I moved my bag rider.

Who do you call / email and what did you say to them ? I have 4 mags I’d like to get upgraddd.Not sure about AW mags - I sent in AX mags and they adjusted the feed lip geometry. Didn’t say that it was specifically done for the AT-X or anything, just that mine were “significantly” out of spec.
They did also replace the springs/followers, but I have no way of knowing if they were the “new” style or if they just replaced them. They do seem to have a little more tension on them, but that could just be me justifying why they seem to feed better now.
As I’ve said in previous posts, sending mags in to have them checked is reasonably quick and painless… seems like an obvious thing to do if you’re having any issues whatsoever.
I’d call or email. When I back ordered it shipped fairly quicklyMeanwhile, my order from EO for a hinge assembly since 10/27/22 awaits fulfillment...
When I back ordered a hinge in July last year, it took 8 months to get lolI’d call or email. When I back ordered it shipped fairly quickly
Trust me, I do.I’d call or email. When I back ordered it shipped fairly quickly
I thought you email and complain and they upgrade your mags ?This mag came in a Gen 3, has the updated follower & spring. It sure would be nice if AI would let us buy the parts to upgrade mags we already have
I haven’t personally done that, but have seen it mentioned on here that they’ll tweak your existing mags if you send them in. Not sure if they just bend the feed lips or actually upgrade the internals.I thought you email and complain and they upgrade your mags ?
