W3G-995-BLK : Folding Sako M995, Black (Full chassis, aluminum forend and trigger guard)

The Whiskey-3 Chassis (W3C) (Generation 6 Chassis)Forend:

•     Polymer to keep your hand away from hot metal in the summer and cold metal in the winter
•     Threaded mounting holes at various positions, total of 15-20.
•     Access hole for action mounting screw, so you can remove the action without removing forend.
•     Side mounting options for rail, flush mount QD sling plate, external QD cup, etc on both sides of forend.

"Backbone"/Chassis:

•     V-bedding (Tikka) or Radius (Rem 700) system which is CNC'd into aluminum backbone for consistent contact between action and chassis.
•     Hardened stainless steel recoil lug instead of aluminum ones found on stock T3's.
•     Rem 700 version can accommodate most large aftermarket recoil lugs like the Badger Ordnance lug without any or with only slight modification.
•     Designed for 5 or 10 round AICS magazines (with or without front spacer plate in T3, with spacer plate only in Rem 700 unless you have a modified action); Rem 700 LA now uses 3.850" length AICS pattern magazines.
•     Barrel contours accepted: 1.25" for 4" in front of action face, then 1.20" straight to end of forend. A 1.25" straight cylinder barrel will fit but we feel that the clearance is too minimal. We recommend using no larger than a varmint contour to keep proper balance.

Trigger Guard/Mag catch:

•     Similar in shape to TRG trigger guard but made of reinforced polymer instead of Delrin (Tikka T3 chassis uses aluminum triggerguard).
•     Will accept Barnard trigger for T3 as well as factory trigger.
•     Rem 700 version will accept the new x-mark triggers and most aftermarket triggers but some aftermarket triggers may require modifications to the trigger or chassis.
•     Mag catch is our new low profile version which reduces snags while still providing excellent ergonomics and control.

Magazines Used:

•     Remington 700 short action and Tikka T3 use AICS .308 mag in either 5 or 10 rd capacity. Accuracy International part numbers 3901 and 3902 respectively.
•     Remington 700 long action and Badger M2008/13 long action use AICS pattern 3.850" length length magazines, a .300wm version is available from Accurate Mag and the Accuracy International AICS .338 CIP mags can be used as well. AI part number 4808 (bend in feedlips to use with smaller cartidges like .300 WM).
•     Magazines are not included. We recommend actual Accuracy International magazines or those from Accurate Mag.

Folding Mechanism (not applicable for fixed stock):

•     Main latch uses proven tapered lever style lockup.
•     Secondary latch locks buttstock in folded position.
•     Spring loaded plungers lock automatically.
•     Tapered design of primary latch allows tight lockup through wear of the system.
•     Latch components made of hardened stainless steel and nitrided high strength chromoly steel.

Cheekpiece:

•     Infinitely adjustable within range (1" travel). You are not locked into set positions.
•     Cheekpiece can be quickly removed and re-installed, uses a clamp and thumbscrew design.
