I searched for a discussion, but didn't find anything. They've been out for long enough now that people should have fairly well worked out opinions on them. What's the good and the bad? Are they worth the price? Thank you.
Do you know what the arca is made of? Is it carbon fiber?It's on my list for a lightweight 300 blk build, but have read reviews about the arca getting easily torn up and getting an aluminum arca mlok is recommended. I have no experience with the chassis. Good thread op.
Yea, cf.Do you know what the arca is made of? Is it carbon fiber?
Mine came loose as well. They sent me a new forend straight up.The QD on my forend has come loose on the side I use, but is still holding. I can send it in for a replacement. Just need to get around to calling for the RMA number. Otherwise, it's a very nice lightweight chassis. I would not hesitate to buy another.
My complaint with the HNT26 Arca dovetail is that it's not to RRS 1.5" spec. It's kind of loose. I ended up getting a custom rail made by Sawtooth Rifles that fits the 4.5 MLOK slots on the bottom of the HNT26 forend. That rail should be on the Sawtooth Rifles site and it has RRS-Lock for additional measure - https://www.sawtoothrifles.com/product/r-lock-arca-dovetail-rail-mdt-hnt26/It's on my list for a lightweight 300 blk build, but have read reviews about the arca getting easily torn up and getting an aluminum arca mlok is recommended.
