As far as I am able to research, the glass is Japanese but the other components are made and assembled in China.
Cheers and happy shooting.
I shoot with a guy who loves his Arkens. It is a nice scope and seems every bit as good as other scopes in that price range. If you don't have ammo, is it really a wait? If you do have ammo, I wouldn't be waiting on anything. Trigger time beats everything else.
It's very tempting. $400 for what they include is very good.
I'm just wary of getting optics from names I haven't heard before.
4-6 weeks doesn't seem too bad when you put it like that.

That reticle is from like 1920 man... Big no thanks on that
Any Tikka T1x local distributors out here?...
Having problems with my magazine not feeding in my T1x.
It hangs up on my 10rd magazine consistently, everytime?...
Tikka's contact info is less than easy to navigate...

Thanks brother, I should have thought about that...
Beretta is sending one out after my call.
Great CS!

Thinking of buying a KRG Bravo chassis in FDE for my T1x, however am I right in thinking that the Bravo mag well is designed for the AICS mags, so leaves a gaping 1" hole between the front of the T1X mag and the stock? If thats the case is there not a blanking plug that can be bought to finish the conversion off?
There is a gap but it doesn't look abnormal and you need the space to access the T1x mag release in front of the mag.
The KRG T1x chasis is purposefully built for the T1x, so it works with those factory mags.
I spoke with them a while back about that...
Gimme 20mins. Taking my post-match shit.
I like the look of that mag base plate. What's your experience with it?
Just got 3 last week after ordering them in May. They feel like quality pieces and the install was simple. Definitely improve the look of the rifle in my opinion. If they function like the should, I will be happy.
I like the look. Are those the DIP bases that limit mag capacity to 6?
Something like this?
Maybe Dewil would be willing to print some up to sell to us or share his file so someone here in the states could print them.
There's one out there, I think mountain tactical makes it.
Edit: quick google search, Mountain Tactical makes an aluminum release and Anarchy Outdoors makes a 3d printed polymer release.
I have the Anarchy Outdoors magazine release, and it is the perfect width and length for the KRG Bravo magazine well. It doesn't protrude below the stock, so you won't accidentally bump it on a barricade or anything, but it fills the mag well so all you have to do is stick your finger anywhere in there and press back. It also allows the magazine to drop free, which the factory mag release did not quite do.
Shipping from Sweden might be unnecessarily expensive. The file is on thingiverse.com (its free to register and download). I will upload a v2 version with a tad longer "latch" that keeps the mag very snug and secure.

I've spent about 6,000 the last couple of months on scopes, guns parts, scope rings, you name it and don't really want to spend too much more on this:
My T1x 16" is in the standard stock. Looking for about 1 extra inch on length of pull and also a cheek raiser. Cheap, but still effective, would be good. Please don't suggest a new stock. I'm thinking $50 for this.
Most of my shooting with this is prone but I'm unable to hold the rifle into my shoulder or get a good cheek weld with the stock as it is at the moment.
I know I can get a recoil pad in a boot which fits over the end of the buttstock and I know I can get cheek risers which wrap around the butt. However I'm thinking if I were to use both, the recoil pad boot and the cheek riser would overlap and not be comfortable.
Any ideas?

@Biscuits, the T1X is simply a stupid good rifle for the cost. Limbsaver slip on pad will give you an inch for $30-40. Check the Victor Co. cheek riser with inserts about $30.00. Also if you go to the Beretta site there is a grip option that allows a much more vertical grip. They often have sales that include the T1X mags. Think Black Fri. Have fun.
Just got this together. Just need to add a knob that’s got a little grip to it
Here is a pic of the T3 pad and the Titan cheek rest Really happy with the additional LOP and the cheek weld now. No mods for the T3 pad to fit on. 
I am in Canada, it comes to about $50 by the time all is said and done for the T3X pad but it's worth it for that extra bit of LOP. I have the exact same setup as 545riflefan, with the pad, the Victor cheek riser and the pistol grip. All worthy upgrades in my opinion.
The Limbsaver can be increased in length, marginally, with inserts. I didn't buy mine for the T1X. I already had it and it's been used on many different rifles and shotguns. It is a versatile piece of kit to have around. The Victor cheekrest has additional inserts available if your daughter needs more rise. They're about ten bucks.
Find a CTR stock for cheap on Ebay I think I paid $25.00 for one. Rob the recoil pad and cheek piece off of it.
Here is my new 22LR trainer rifle.

Really nice
What stock is that you have on it?
Eh - see you just posted the answer!
Does anyone have any word on when the left hand models are expected to start arriving? Europtic said the 4th quarter so I was expecting them 29 days ago.
Hi everyone,
This is the first time i'm building a "long range" setup. I already have a Area419 30 MOA rail and a Athlon Ares ETR 4.5-30x56 MIL. According to manufacturer the scope has 32 MIL (=110 MOA) of elevation travel. I plan to put a 20.6 MOA Spuhr mount on it, and zero the rifle at 50 m.
Does it sound OK for you? I need to be 100% sure because my shooting range is closed and I won't be able to return the mount by the time I had the chance to zero the rifle. Thanks!

+1000!!! I'd buy one today, if they got them in. I need a LH plinker bolt gun, hate Savage actions/triggers, love my Tikka T3x, they need to get the LH .22lr models to the US. It's interesting that they do have the 17 HMR LH in stock at Eurooptic, but not .22lr.
Here in Canada the 17 HMR LH landed a couple of months back. My suggestion, as I have done, is to grab one of those and re-barrel with a .22 LR barrel IF you had any intention of doing that at some point anyhow. Otherwise the wait will be until next summer we have been told and we surprisingly seem to get Tikka a little before you folks in the USA.
You'll need the .22 LR magazines and that's it.
Not a bad idea...didn't realize you could use the same bolt for 17 HMR and .22lr.
What are the top barrel choices for rebarreling a T1x?
Does anybody know If anyone came up with mag extension for Tikka t1x yet?
Take a look at this :
How to figure the correct MOA angled scope mount base....
These questions seem to come up a lot with the rise of people shooting .22LR out to 200, 300, 400+ yards.... Do I need a 0 MOA, 20, 30, or 40 MOA scope mount base ??? Can I still get a 25 or 50 yard zero??? How far will I be able to dial with XX scope and XX MOA base??? This depends on 4 main...

That's exactly what I'm doing with mine. I already have a couple 22lr mags in hand, just waiting on my barrel from IBI.
