A First Look at the New 1934 Armory PRO Chassis

If you have been paying attention, you probably caught the quiet hints we have been dropping about our community rifle builds. These are the high end custom rifles we are putting together for networking days, training days, match side stages, and even loaner use. That project deserves its own write up, but it matters here for one reason. One of those builds has been running the BE1 action from 1934 Armory, and the thing has been smooth, consistent, and accurate in a way that caught my attention fast.

So when 1934 Armory started teasing something new last week, most of us figured it was another accessory or a small update. What we did not expect was a full chassis launch dropped on Black Friday. A brand new contender in the premium market. The PRO Chassis is now official. Here is what we know so far.

How It Stacks Up in a Competitive Market

The chassis market is not friendly to newcomers. MDT, MPA, and KRG have shaped what shooters expect and they have done it for years. If you enter this space, you are expected to meet that standard on day one. Adjustable ergonomics. ARCA integration. Weight tuning. Accessory support. Rigidity that does not give up when you load into a barricade or settle into prone.

The PRO Chassis steps into that arena with more than just a checklist. It brings actual substance. Start with the rear of the rifle. The three things that matter most are adjustable cheek height, adjustable length of pull, and a real bag rider. These are mandatory for clean head position, repeatable eye alignment, and a stable recoil path. A lot of chassis hit two out of three. Some force you to buy aftermarket parts. The PRO Chassis comes with all three built in. The cheek adjustment locks clean. The length of pull range fits most shooters without adapters. And the included bag rider gives you the tracking you want without wobble or torque. The only thing I would have liked to see is an adjustable bag rider to match the rest of the adjustments, but we can dream.

From there, the material choice pushes it even farther. Most chassis in this category are cut from 6061 because it machines easier and still performs well. The PRO Chassis is built from 7075 T6. That is a real jump in stiffness and recoil behavior. Less flex when you load in. Less torsion during positional work. More predictable return to target. When you run a heavy barrel or stack weight on the forend, you feel that difference.

The rest of the system stays on that same trajectory. Full length ARCA with proper engagement. M Lok everywhere you want it. NV bridge mounting. A true ambidextrous magazine release. Weight tuning in the forend and the rear to match how modern PRS shooters build their balance. Nothing about this reads like a version one release. This is a complete chassis that launches at the level shooters already expect, and in a couple areas, such as the 7075 construction, it steps ahead of what most companies are doing.

Final Thoughts

Right now we are all looking at the same thing. A website update and a few social media posts. It is hard to make real objective claims without hands on experience, rounds downrange, and proper testing. But for the moment, the data looks promising.

The part that stands out is seeing an action company that already has a strong lineup step into the chassis space. If 1934 Armory continues heading in this direction, we are getting closer to something this community has wanted for a long time. A true one stop shop for a full precision build. Action. Chassis. Support. All under one roof. We hope to see these popping up soon and maybe we will even see about adding one to the line up.
