If you posted that Rifle over on 24 Hour you would get lots of ooohs and aaahs. But here, on snobbish AR, in order to get a lot of praise it has to have some pretty nice walnut to go with all of that metal work.

Dago RedWell I like your sweetheart!! I had a laminate stock that looked just like that pattern wise, but was grey and blackish, looked great, I regret now getting rid of it. I am not big into synthetics or laminates, but see place for them and some of them can be very attractive. looks like a great rifle. Are you going to have it checkered? (mine was uncheckered too and I didn't know if the laminates were just harder to checker?)
thanks for posting pics, nice to see something different and done well.

EnigmaThanks Dago for your post. Regarding the checkering... The laminate was made about 4 years ago if my memory serves me right. At that time, Accurate Innovations did not recommend checkering the laminates saying that the diamond shape checkering could break off... I did listen to them and did not get it checkered.

Blue DogEnigma.....Great looking rifle! I love that stock and the brand name just does not get any better to my way of thinking. Terrific caliber no doubt. Thanks for posting your new play toy!

EnigmaThanks Blue Dog. I just came back from my first trip to the range. The TSX sure like H4350. I will try to go again tomorrow and shoot for very small groups

I love that play toy
