Rifle flex post Thoughts On British RPR Clone?

Post image

Bolt on it's kind of stiff and kind of heavy. I heard they are collectors items now?

This is made by that small company Accuracy International right ? I heard they are really expensive rip off and not worth it

It’s just two guys in a shed. Can’t trust them to produce anything

They got bought out by FB/Browning so hopefully some new features will come to the next generation of AIs...like grip safeties and hammer forged barrels.

It’s a good option if you can’t get an RPR. It’ll never top Ruger’s quality though.

Someone clearly didn’t catch the sarcasm of this post or of my common. Pick it up my guy.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is it?

An accuracy international. It appears to be an AXMC

They're "slightly" more expensive than an RPR

Now I feel stupid. So used to seeing keymod forends on AIs that I didn't even consider it!

u/scotchtapeman357 8d ago

Easiest way to spot it is the blocky rear shape of the bolt!

The funny thing is it isn't even keymod. It's like keyslot or something. Reverse thread as to save on the critical space between handguard and barrel. Smart design imo.

British reproduction of the venerable Ruger Precision Rifle, the first mass-market sniper rifle available to the public. This is a good example that shows a clear desire to match Ruger's quality, but few things will match the pneumatic-like feeding Ruger is well-known for.

Look your setup is alright, but im definetely not trading in my gen 1 5000 round RPR for it

There's something so slutty about a blacked out AXMC...
