    Army M24 Build Thread

    Nice picture of the differences. I had noticed differences in the Leupold Ultra rings too. Some of the rings I have seen had a slight purple hue. One of my M24's even came with two variations of rings, one with the chamfered bolt and one with the flat ended bolt. It is perfect otherwise and...

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

    Those last two pictures are a nice configuration, lighter and faster to me.

    Springfield M1A

    There is something about the way they recoil and then naturally roll back into position for the next shot that I only experience with the M14/M1A and the M1 Garand. I love my SR-25's but there is something about these I keep coming back to.

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

    P.S. The positive thing about selling it was that it went to a guy just back from the middle east. He had used one there and was very happy that I sold it to him!

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

    I built an EBR on a Sage stock back in 2009. I actually set it up for a friend and he finished it off with the accessories. Later he needed money so I bought it from him. Unfortunately I sold it later because I thought it was too heavy and most of my other M14 clones were more accurate for me. I...

    The M14's have stayed around for a remarkably long time. Here are a couple of my favorite pics.

    Most of the box variations said Collectors Edition on the bottom row. The only box label I have seen without that is the version labeled (Rifle Only) instead of "S.W.S.".

    M24 scope...allegedly! SH experts help!

    Here is a picture of the scope I mentioned above that had the serial number drilled out. When I spoke to Leupold's technical support they recognized it immediately. They said it was done by the military when they dispose of scopes. Demilled may be the wrong term, but I mean demiltarized to...

    Remington M24 Special Run rifles only @ EuroOptic

    I agree the Ultra and MK4 scopes are great other than the mil/moa. I just meant having a higher magnification than 10X would be nice at times.

    M24 scope...allegedly! SH experts help!

    Everything else looks correct. The down side is that without the serial number Leupold won't honor the warranty. I have an M8 CQBSS that had the serial number drilled out as a way of demilling and they said they would not work on it under warranty.

    Remington M24 Special Run rifles only @ EuroOptic

    The only limitations I have experienced with the M24 are ammo consistency and the 10X scope. The hardware has never been the limitation in my shooting.

    What brand is your most trusted AR15?

    Regardless of the brand it seems like a lot of people want to start making changes before they have shot them enough to know the rifle well. I usually tell them to go shoot a case of ammo through it before they do anything. Any needed changes will begin to talk to you.

    What brand is your most trusted AR15?

    I have an old Bushmaster with A2 upper that has been totally reliable. I keep it as a truck gun, with just the A2 sights....no optics or any other extras other than a nylon silent sling. Just the rifle and 6 loaded 30 round mags in bandoliers.
