My understanding is that AX/AT barrels can be retrofit into an AE rifle. I would like to hear from someone who has actually done it.
-Is the AX/AT barrel well seated and stable inside the recoil lug channel, without being supported by the straight tenon portion of an AE barrel?
-Is accuracy as good?
-Any concern on the exposed/threaded portion of the AX/AT barrel that's actually not screwed in/supported by any metal?
I am debating whether to use an spare AX/AT 6.5 CM barrel I have on the AE I am getting, or send the AE for rebarrel using a new blank.
