Had an Alpine Hunter. Sold it. In comparing it to a side-by-side with McM Game Hunter and the Mesa Attitude, the 'squarish' bottom of the forend is what turned me off.
Just goes to show, everyone is different. The forearm profile is one of my favorite things about the Alpine. I find the Game Hunter is too rounded, making it harder to mount picatinny and Arca rails to..and it just doesn't ride a bag or pack as well.
Only took yours 5 weeks? What lead time did they tell you? I’m 2.5 weeks in on what they told me would be 10 weeks.
I ordered 12/30/20. Received 2/4. They had to inlet the chalk branch to weatherby markv action. When I ordered they were looking to see if there was one already inletted. They called me back and said they would need to I let so it may take 6 weeks. It was a great ordering process. Very nice people.
It should be fast for you since you’re almost down the road.

Good to know! Karl Kampfeld will have my barreled action a couple more weeks so I’m in no rush, thanks!
Hello, A customer told me about seeing this post and the overweight Privateer. That stock definitely is overweight, we made a mistake somewhere for sure. We are more than happy to replace that under warranty. Also, I saw you had a few other issues with bottom metal fitment and delamination. Can we contact you to talk about fixing these issues? Let me know the best way to contact you. Thanks
The shelf near the rear pillar is machined intentionally. Our M5 inlet is designed to accommodate several different M5 bottom metal types from multiple manufacturers. If that shelf is not present some of these bottom metal types will rock in the inlet thereby not seating properly. The inlet is machined to establish the correct heights for the front and rear pillars. AGC does not recommend altering the heights of either pillar as it may cause issues with locking a magazine into the bottom metal.
We try to respond quickly and get every stock made as ordered. I would like for us to be operating at 100% all the time but we do make mistakes. If we do mess up we want to make it right as fast as we can.

Nice.
A manufacturer hears about a problem second hand, then searches for the person who had that problem, and makes an offer to fix it.........that's hard to beat that for customer service.

Thank you for that response. The last of three stocks I received had the bottom metal inlet wrong (drop floorplate instead of M5 DBM). Mistakes happen and I wasn't in a hurry. I had a return tag within minutes of speaking to Pam. Someone called me when AG received it to verify what inlet I needed, and the stock was fixed with the correct inlet and back to me in about 2 weeks. So kudos to you guys. Very much appreciated.
I have a number of “M” stocks, but their wait time and total cost pushed me to other vendors. I’ve bought three non M stocks of recent. The M stocks are great, but they’ve pushed some customers away.
Will they do model 70 or tikka action inlets? I don’t see this option on their page? If they won’t do these won’t get any of my business. Stocks look great!
