Hi Guys ,
Just want to see how long this post stays UP , some one posted pics of the massive cuts into the new quick change AI multicaliber actions , there is a large " I " section milled out of the bottom of the action , in essence 3 large cuts , very deep , 1/2 way thru vertically .
As soon as guys started expressing concerns about the loss of strenght & the design becoming less soldier proof , and that multical was really BS in the real world ( ie soldiers will not carry a rifle & 2x spare barrels & bolts on deployment , and possibly losing the allen key bolt or crossthreading the barrel or rubbish getting into this cut ) , the thread disappeared ?
To be clear , I own 5x AI rifles , and love them , at this stage , I like the new right folding stock , the new AX alloy bipod , for me is a 50/50 , not loving it or hating it , just neutral , RE the quick change feature , the 3 large cuts in the action & the principle of multicals , I Donot like at all .
I do like getting the AT/AW at a cheaper price .
I just wish they multical grab screw/cut action feature was OPTIONAL , ie special order , as to leave OUT 3 milling operations in manufacture , would be smiple & cheap to do .
I wished the new AI bipod for the AX series would have been a more modern rendition of the old WWII Russian DP machinegun bipod , due to the tube design foreend etc .
