Re: Patriot Arms rifle

Nice! Weight?

 

[banshee sws]

Re: Patriot Arms rifle

weight is approximately 11 pounds

i have some grouping pictures

will post later ,

thanks for the comments - this is my version of the IBA xm-3 rifle - except i like mine better

no use for night vision, so i left off the NV rail;
and they used steel components where i used aluminum base/rings, factory bdl metal

i went AAC can, they use surefire

for those of you who have not tried the a1-3, if you like the m40/htg stocks you will LOVE the A1-3 ,

bees knees - no regrets

Re: Patriot Arms rifle

Nice rifle! I thought APA (PAI) no longer used Cerakote?

Not to distract form your post, but you must be an attorney. The only time ive seen et al used is in lawsuits! Nice rifle by the way.

Re: Patriot Arms rifle

Everytime I see that stock I like it more and more. Good looking rig.

Re: Patriot Arms rifle

Could you elaborate on the edge technology for this particular stock?
Thanks

 

[deadly0311]

Re: Patriot Arms rifle

the edge version of the stock is just talking about the weight. McMillan offers Sniper fill, and a edge is just a lighter weight fill

Re: Patriot Arms rifle

The more I see this stock, and mess around with one, the more and more I get to like it. Nice stick and I am sure it's a shooter if it came from APA

Re: Patriot Arms rifle

yeah what deadly said - the EDGE is a graphite cloth i guess, that McMillan uses to make the stock as light as possible and still super strong -

a tip here , when you order a mcmillan stock with the EDGE they place pillars in it as part of the price; so you get a pillared stock for the same money

its flipping light ; as in i can one hand that rifle straight out for about 30 secs or so no trouble at all

thanks all
