Modern Hunter, The Ultimate Irony

Just a question... regarding 223 caliber. would a magwell attachment and a properly sized bolt head work with fitting 223 case types into the modern hunter? I know that the MH is heavier than a 223 would need to be, but then wouldnt it just be a upper swap, and skip all the RCMP FRT stuff.

arak 21 uses a standard AR lower does it not?

Correct; The ARAK-21 is just an upper receiver, the actual gun part (the lower receiver in the case of the AR15 platform) is what is restricted.

why is this gun non restricted and the arak 21 is restricted looks like the same to me

Alberta Tactical went to painstaking lengths to build a rifle from the ground up - to give it the same handling characteristics and ergonomics as similar rifles; however is completely incompatible with any AR15 or AR10 variant. They had to re-design new trigger groups, barrel extensions, bolt groups etc... all to distance itself completely from the "variant of" category.

The ARAK-21 is simply a new upper for a regular AR15. As I had previously stated; as the lower receiver IS the gun - the ARAK-21 upper becomes an accessory for a restricted rifle.

Which is funny because you can take that upper with you wherever you want to go, it has the same legal ramifications as a spoon ;)

In from a day of hog hunting. A farmer i know that has been having issues with them invited us in. And I was able to get a few photos with the phone. Still dont have the lantac on it, nor the bipod. I didnt have time, but here are a few photos of the beast on his work bench. I hope to have better shots/action shots off a real camera when i get home.





On the list are coyotes, wolves, bear and apparently hogs.

Turned out amazing, mine is in similar configuration, can you tell me if you went with a heavy or varmint barrel profile.

Thanks all,

It shoots really nicely thus far. Not too many shots through it yet though. I will get shot grouping pictures up when i can. I am using federal premium vitalshock 175gr.

The ergo grip is great. I use it on all my AR setups.

The cheek riser is about .5-.75" if i can recall.

no RCMP interaction yet, no real pictures of the hunting either. I'll explain further when i am home.

I can't wait to start reading reviews & range reports of these rifles.

Apparently stormchaser received infractions for doing a range report in the black rifles section on his modern hunter, Maybe not my place to say anything here but im pretty upset about it, i would have done the same thing, and there are lots of people including myself that are waiting patiently to see how everyone's mh shoots.
Is this something political between atrs and gunnutz or am i missing the big picture here... its a gun sight where people steady post pictures of their guns and how they shoot. Whyyyyy pick on the first range report of the MH????

This is a little troubling, I was considering doing the same thing, probably in the precision rifles section. Anyone care to enlighten why this would have happened, what rule was broken to receive said infraction?

From the beginning a couple of individuals have had a hard on to thwart the MH project in any way possible. It would appear that this is simply another shot at us and some happy clients. This mentality will doom the gun culture.
I was away the last 2 days and did not see exactly what was posted that was so inflammatory or how Storm was baited to post whatever was so offensive, but strongly encourage that any posts to do with the Modern Hunter be done so in the ATRS forum so that we have some control on the trolls and their baiting.
 
Got mine all I can say is wow. Worth every penny. It has ruined me on shooting most of my rifles. Thank you again Rick and the boys at atrs.

..... Well im not sure how many have been sent out but im #30 and have not received it yet

We are trying to build them in the order in which we received deposits, HOWEVER, some items such as carbon fiber barrels in calibers other than 308, have not arrived yet. So we are at the point right now where we're assembling them in the order of the deposits depending on available parts. #34 may be put together before #30, if we are still waiting on parts for #30 while #34 has everything sitting here.

The good news I can tell you, is that we're putting together a LOT of lower receivers while we're waiting for more barrels to arrive, which means as soon as the next shipment of barrels comes in we can put together the upper, test fire, and out the door it goes. The part that has surprised me the most, is how so many rifles have been ready and not picked up yet!

Pretty quiet lately, someone must have some pictures etc by now for those of us waiting? Is ATRS expecting to have all first runs shipped in April?

This is entirely dependant on when we receive the barrels. If we get them soon enough....
