    CMP sold Unertl and USO MST-100 scopes

    Your observations on the serial ranges are the same as mine. I haven't seen or heard of any serial numbers higher than 1913 in the .30 Cal. scopes and 5150 in those originally made as .50 Cal. scopes.

    US Optics Scout-Sniper Day Scope prototype

    Good points! I hadn't realized the dates wouldn't show in the cut and paste. You must be talking about CMP user #9151, ha!

    US Optics Scout-Sniper Day Scope prototype

    Excellent work, thank you for compiling the list! I had started planning a format but hadn't done it yet.. The only format differences I had planned were columns for ".50 cal. conversion" and "date of auction" (so I could sort by those). I didn't have the number of bids and CMP user #. I'll...

    US Optics Scout-Sniper Day Scope prototype

    Yes, I used that search function to save the numbers into a word file. One caution is that there are a few auctions where they failed to put Unertl in the title, so if you search by Telescope, you get a more complete list (but have to cull out the M84's etc.). Also, there are some where they did...

    US Optics Scout-Sniper Day Scope prototype

    Negative, that is just the username I adopted on the CMP forum in 2009. They had changed the forum software and I couldn't reuse the username I had used for the prior 10 years. I have asked about a list of Unertl serial numbers a couple times but haven't had any success. I have just been...

    US Optics Scout-Sniper Day Scope prototype

    The CMP sold two of the USO 3xxx series scopes. The other was 3123. https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipN2BPal9xyrFzIbV0iu-r6GgBwYUwTk7UzAX3E19LCCSZ_3nSbc6wQ6NCp4RzcTWA?key=bDVTb085b0pDWmx3b2V0ZEdUaDRrdUZHbFliYnZB Those two scopes, plus USO 3449 that has been posted here before, are the only...

    Help with scoping an M1A

    In selecting rings, just be aware that the BPT mounts used Weaver mount specs rather than Picatinny. The Badger mounts I tried to use on one Weaver base would not fit. Some narrower Picatinny rings might work in either, but it's best to check before you buy.

    So what did I just buy? Scope mount edition

    This sounds like the same mount, Leatherwood/Hi-Lux Tactical 3D Mount. SWFA used to sell: http://www.opticstalk.com/leatherwood-tactical-3d-mount_topic12647.html

    USMC M40A1 Unertl mount on Gunbroker

    I was able to notify the buyer of a totally faked 03A4 sniper a few years ago but had to do it indirectly. I searched using his gunbroker username and found the same username on a couple firearms forums. I'm not finding any fordf1501995 except on an instagram account in Mexico... I have no idea...

    Here is one more that shows the conical shapes better.

    USMC M40A1 Unertl mount on Gunbroker

    I posted on the other thread that I had dealt with TMA on two rifles back in 2015 and 2016. The M40A1 that I bought has a repro mount that looks like the one in the pictures of auction for the complete rifle posted above, auction 1015561811. I have some pictures of that repro mount that I...

    Army M24 Build Thread

    That is the thing with these FOIA's. It's very unlikely that this M24 sat in storage at Fort Campbell from 2012-2016 when issued to the 5th SFG. The same is true of its earlier locations.

    Army M24 Build Thread

    It's hard to tell exactly when it was rebuilt, some FOIA's are more specific on that. It started as an M24 based on the date, and I would say it's last configuration was an XM2010/M2010 based on the plugged rear sight holes and the adhesive residue from the tag. I think the "reconcilliations"...

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

    Amen! All kidding aside, that sundown silhouette shot is an awesome picture!

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

    Those silhouette pictures look cool, but in real life they are called “targets”. I’m glad there weren’t any bad guys around when they were taken.

    Looking for insight / feedback - Remington M24, issued or not?

    That is one of the standard Remington M24's that they started releasing to the public about 2014. Based on the RR prefix and G suffix to the serial number and the datamatrix square, this would have been pretty late in production, maybe 2016 or later. So it is a real M24 made by Remington...

    Building a not clone 1903A4

    My suggestion is to look for an 03-A3 receiver that is already drilled and tapped. I built a clone that way years ago. I made the bolt cut on a stock that was already cut down as a sporter. Then I grafted a forearm onto the stock using the forearm from a cracked stock, with a splice under the...
