Honestly, the whole point of magazines is that you reload by changing mags, which is impossible with only one mag.

Posted: 12/28/2012 1:53:26 PM [Last Edit: 12/28/2012 1:57:33 PM by ALASKANFIRE] Looking good Armalite. I wonder if you could offer the smaller version you used to make in 308 in something like 260/243/6.5 creedmoor. Might be a cool setup Originally Posted By InfiniteGrim: 1/4-3/4 moa at 300 yards. Not bad! But 1 mag for a $3400 rifle! So what other precision rifles in that range come with multiple mags? None that I have seen. Call up one of the custom builders and pay 5 grand and it will still come with one mag.

The parts for the AR-30 that were also used on the new AR-30A1 could be placed in a sandwich bag. TR

Posted: 12/29/2012 2:25:11 PM Looks awesome I have one of the first AR30 out the door. The little (yuc yuc) still shoots 1 hole 5 shot groups at 100. With a little design work and the help off a friend who is a machinist I put a Magpul PRS on her what a difference a good stock makes. She is going to go up to Elite Iron for a new barrel crown and a quiet procedure that will make her a lot more pleasant to be around. Glad to see they worked out a few bugs but the original shoots just fine.

Posted: 5/14/2013 8:38:37 PM Well, I finally got it to the range. This is a 5 shot group and the flyer was all on me. I jerked the trigger on that shot. SS 20x42 and Hornady 180gr SST. Yeah, it's not centered as I have not decided on which scope and which ammo so I won't zero until then: Got a new scope on the way. The 20x SS may stay on there. The new one enroute is an SS 3-15x42. Tried a Millett. Not impressed.
