Anyone try Beretta's enlarged cocking handle?
Seems like it'd be quite an improvement over the regular one. Hoping someone here has tried it. Also tempted to get the lower picatinny rail just so I can have a foregrip. |

A few people were able to order from the European site. Will have to check to see if they have the charging handle extensions soon.... You WILL wrack your knuckles on the shell deflector. The lower pic rail is a good thing to have. I've got one on my ARX, but haven't put anything on it yet. I'm probably going to use an AFG, though. |

I'll be getting my ARX100 on Friday. Can't wait. I used to have one and I never should have sold it.

Whats everyones optic preference on the arx?
I have a set of troy micros that will be going on first. Kind of undecided on a true optic. Kinda like the deltapoint idea MAC had. |

I also changed out the A2 FH for a Smith Vortex G6A4 and I just installed the Shooting Sight ARX trigger a couple of days ago. |

I just shot my last 120 rounds of 2003 production Winchester Q3131A to check function today and I had no problems with the ARX or the new Shooting Sight trigger. When I go to sight in I will be using 2009 production IMI M855 but I don't know when I will get around to doing that due to the weather. I also haven't really shot for groups since I've had the ARX so I might do that after I sight in. |

Anyone tried out Troy low profile sights on their ARX-100 bychance? Colt uses Troy BUIS on the 901 (which I have) and I love the heck out of them. Since the ARX has a raised rail, I was thinking their low profile sights might be a really nice replacement for the meh factory back up sights.

Yup, and the micro height sights co witness nicely with a T-1 or equivalent style sight when mounted with an American Defense mount CAS-V height. I posted pictures of my ARX with that setup back in this thread on page 36. For some reason the pics no longer show up in the thread, but right underneath my post another person quoted me, and you can click on the links in the quote to see them.

Also, I hear the tan colored ones are shipping without the BUIS set, but with the continual rail at the front bottom (instead of the handguard covering the grenade launcher mount). I already submitted my request to Beretta for the promotional they are running, for five free mags. |

I feel the same way, I don't have much if any buyer's remorse about the price I paid. I think the ARX is a better rifle than any of the other third generation rifles out there, so with that in mind it's a steal of a deal. |

I agree. The ARX is a great platform. I regretted selling my first one so I had a chance to get a 2nd one and I did.
I highly recommend the cheek riser you can find on eBay called the CR-2. It's like $22 bucks. |

MINI RANGE REPORT
We just put about 300 rounds of XM193 through ours, fairly quickly. Flawless, but many have already reported this. Ran GI, Magpul 2nd Gen, and Troy mags through it, all without a hiccup. The strangest thing to me was how unbelievably CLEAN the rifle was when I took it apart to clean it after the trip. |

The latest revision to the military model having larger vent holes around the HG makes a lot more sense now. That was done to improve convection cooling, but it would help with the spent powder residue also. I've been contemplating cutting the HG to convert it to an A3 style, since I have access to the machining tools that would make the mod feasible. Probably kill the warranty, though. |

The ARX doesn't really have vent holes like an AK or AR. The moving cylinder never passes an opening to vent gas.
Gas does leak out some between the piston and cylinder, but it doesn't seem like a attempt to bleed gas off after the action starts moving. AJ |

The DMR version is pretty bad ass looking, really wished it used sr25mags. It's in the article, Beretta has an adapter for it to use SR-25 magazines. Damn skipped over that part, I like how they are making thing one able to take the 7.63X39 part and 5.56 parts as well. Now if they can only trickle into our dirty little mits. |

Depending on availability of parts i.e. bolts, extractors, etc this may be my first SBR.

Whoa, they're making it convertible to 5.56 and 7.62 commie as well? Damn, sounds like they're stepping into the Colt 901's backyard. Granted it sounds like it's not QUITE as accurate, but close enough. Of course, they'd have to actually bring to market, unlike the vaporware 7.62 and 6.8 conversions for the ARX-100.

The ARX doesn't really have vent holes like an AK or AR. The moving cylinder never passes an opening to vent gas. Gas does leak out some between the piston and cylinder, but it doesn't seem like a attempt to bleed gas off after the action starts moving. AJ Interesting, maybe this thing does make for a good suppressor host then. |

Nice You can get all of the ARX-100 parts you want at Brownells, they might not be in stock when you order them though and you could end up waiting quite a while to receive them. I have never had a problem though and have always received the parts I ordered eventually. The longest wait that I've had so far was for a couple of selector lever roll pins, I think it took about three months. |

How is the accuracy with your ARX's?
I've seen reports of 2" - 7" groups. |

I have not tested mine yet though... Mine is a solid 3moa rifle with WG, many groups less than 3moa. Premium ammo it may be 2moa but not a huge improvement over WG The RTZ with my rifle is excellent as well. I have not measured it but would say 1moa or less POI shift. |

AJ Interesting, maybe this thing does make for a good suppressor host then. It sounds great suppressed (YHM ULT) but the open port on the left side does make for a lot of blowback. I'm going to put a piece of duct tape over that side to see if it helps. |
