Does anyone know if the Feinwerkbau 800 Alu is available in the USA yet? I see it on Feinwerkbau website, but can't seem to find anyone in the US listing it.

Thanks, but the picture they are showing are the 800X model. I am looking for the 800 ALU, which is close but looks more like the 700 ALU. It is shown on the Feinwerkbau website as a new model.

I will be at the National Matches next week. I plan on talking to a few in commercial row. Hopefully they might have one to look at.

Interesting, I hadn't noticed them changing it between the two; do you know what the differences between the two models are other than the different foregrips?

To me it looks real similar to the 700Alu, but has the 800 action, and a little lighter. Pretty sure it has less adjustability than the 800x in the rear stock.

I will be at the National Matches this month and I am hoping someone will have it available to look at. We are in the search process to upgrade my son. We like the 700Alu, but if the 800Alu is available, I would like to get a look at it.
