I have used a few of Malcolm Coopers designs....all the AI variations are first rate. I have one AI .308 I purchased from their shop near Oak Ridge. Our unit had 4 more ordered after we almost shot the barrel out of mine !
We we told em what we did in testing etc and they gave me a new one !
Expensive even back then yet very good customer service.
Good rig but very very heavy......too heavy IMO for all but specialized missions.
I was at the SHOT Show in Vegas 3 years ago, helping man the accu-shot booth and peddling books. I got inovolved in a long conversation about rifles etc with one more old white guy, except this one had a Brit accent. No biggie, I’d been chatting with Russians, Israelis, Germans, Swedes, Japanese etc for a few days.
So there I am, going on about my great (sic) knowledge with this old Brit.
Yep, you guessed it. Malcom Cooper.
Very nice guy.
