    2025 Scout Sniper Association M40A5 rifle raffle

    Thank you everyone who has purchased tickets! JT, the president of the SSA, should be taking this rifle out to be photographed sometime soon. I should have some new photos of this M40A5 raffle rifle and kit soon, and I'll post them in this this thread when I receive them. Thanks again, everyone...

    Lets see your USMC M40-M40A6!!!

    Beautiful rifle and it's an amazing piece of USMC GWOT history! I'd recommend posting a few photos of the rifle and maybe even a range report (with photos of targets too) in one of the XM3 threads that we have open on this forum. Some people specifically subscribe to threads they enjoy, and...

There's a few weeks left to grab tickets, and right now the odds of winning this rifle are pretty damn good (we haven't sold...

    U.S. Army/Navy/USMC M14-based sniper and DMR/SDM rifles circa late-1960s to late 201Xs

    No idea on the scope, but that's definitely a LaRue Stomp mount that doesn't have the top portion attached to it. I actually have one of these mounts available, if anyone needs it. It's pretty difficult to find the old Stomp mounts.

    2025 Scout Sniper Association M40A5 rifle raffle!

    That's awesome! Please tell me that you took some photos of the rifle and that you also got to shoot it! What do you think of the clone build aspect? Did we hit all of the large and small details on this build (100% USMC specs)? Did you shoot the rifle, or see it being shot? If so, what were the...

    U.S. Army/Navy/USMC M14-based sniper and DMR/SDM rifles circa late-1960s to late 201Xs

    Not really, when you look beyond the surface level. They're actually making sure that you don't spend your money so that they can find a way to take it from you later! That's the way of the shifty shitlibs!

    2025 Scout Sniper Association M40A5 rifle raffle

    Well, gentlemen, it's that time of the year again! We're about a month out from drawing the winner for an epic M40A5 clone build, the rifle raffle ends on May 5th. I donated this rifle to the Scout Sniper Association (SSA) in order to help raise money for the Marine Scout Sniper community...

    2025 Scout Sniper Association M40A5 rifle raffle!

    Great question, and that's one I'll have to get back to you on with a detailed answer. There is no silencer included with the rifle, since this raffle is legal in all 50 states, but silencers are only legal in 42 states. It's much easier to raffle off a rifle without the silencer do to state...

    Iron Bridge Armory (IBA)XM3 build not clone correct

    What are you talking about? Where did I say that the Remington version of the XM3 isn't real. I clearly told you exactly what these rifles are and aren't. There's quite a few XM3 threads on this forum and others, which contain a ton of information on these rifles. I highly suggest reading them...

    M40a1 build guide

    It wasn't common, but there were some M40A1's that stayed in the Corps for quite a while after the M40A3's and even the M40A5's were the standard USMC sniper rifle. I was in Fallujah, Iraq feom 2008 to 2009, and we had an A1 as a regional asset that stayed in Iraq. When we ripped with 1/7, they...

    Iron Bridge Armory (IBA)XM3 build not clone correct

    Yes, the IBA XM3 has been around for about 19 years, or 20 years if you consider the planning stages before actually building the rifles in 2006. The problem is looking at the Remington brochure. Remington isn't the original manufacturer of the USMC XM3 sniper rifles, they were originally made...

    Mk13 Geissele Trigger

    Hopefully it's one of the new-old-stock triggers that came directly from Geissele, and not one of the broken and unsafe triggers that came from DRMO. If it's a new-old-stock trigger from Geissele, then $1,600 is actually a really good deal. However, if it's a DRMO trigger, there's a reason that...

    @RemCustom6 can probably help out with any information on rifles from the Remington Custom Shop.

    Antique Chinese bronze.

    Excellent find! Here's some links for the OP for Luristan bronze objects and their location. I've seen a ton of Luristan bronze objects pop up for sale in European auctions, the swords are very common. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luristan_bronze...

    Antique Chinese bronze.

    If anyone here has any antique weapons like this one, I highly suggest becoming a member of the Viking Sword forum and cross posting your stuff over there. That forum is literally the epicenter for any weapons that are vintage to archaic, handgonnes to blades, Europe to Micronesia, etc. Those...

    Lets see your USMC M40-M40A6!!!

    The Marines started getting E prefix receivers around 1999/2000, and they received a large order of E receivers in 2001. The Marines got a ton of G prefix receivers in 2005, which is right around the time MARSOC was using their customized A3's (I can't remember the exact year off the top of my...

    Mk13 Geissele Trigger

    Never officially sold to the public, but a handful were purchased from Geissele. The $5k GunBroker listing above is from a few years ago when there weren't any of these triggers in private hands. Now you can grab them from collectors who have them for about $2,000 or a little less. There's...

    Tac Ops Rifles

    Probably my favorite rifle in this thread (well, after my Green Hornet, lol)! That's an awesome set-up! I might have missed it, but what's the barrel length? 16"?
