...although after looking up what you said, I reckon you've nailed it. And I guess I was right, too, it is pretty modern, sleek and futuristic in appearance.

Thanks! Any confirmation / more info on this beast? Is it any good? I've not actually seen it get fired so it was all a bit tantalising.

Yeah it looks like one of the Accuracy International Arctic Warfare rifles, not sure which one though.

Question Rem 700 in AI stock

Its a Remington 700 PSS mounted in an AI folding stock. The barrel is made removable because of "interrputed threads" in the forward portion of the receiver and on the chamber end of the barrel. Simply rotate the barrel 90 degrees and pull out. The reverse to install and it automatically headspaces.

Oh yeah, I forgot armorers do that sometimes. Like in The Matador.

I have to say, I agree with Rockwolf and GM, it does look like the Accuracy International Covert model, which is a version of the Artic Warfare model modified to fold and fit into a suitcase. I'm not sure where the Remington that 4570 mentioned comes into this, as I can't find a version that matches up. Here's some pics which pretty much confirm what RW and GM have said and match up pretty much perfectly with the screencaps:



Definitely seems to be this one, and it kinda figures considering the nature of the show, which tends to use modern and more unusual weaponry, as the hero is a former spy.
