    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    I sent it to him, we will see what happens I suppose.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Quick update, I tried to reassure Tiny that no one had any beef with him here about anything and though he read it, he absolutely won’t respond to it which makes me wonder if he knows something we don’t. David still hasn’t read or replied to anything yet and neither has PTG’s Facebook account.

    Actually the article I read in gun digest the guy had 4 consecutive impacts at 1004 yards with it and eventually went on to stretch it out to 3/4 of a mile (1325 yds) and at 800 yds shot a group about the size of a fist so I don’t think I’d call it luck.

    Not trying to hijack the post but is it true someone took one of these rifles to 1300+ yards in 22LR? I know they are supposed to be good rifles but that just seems a little far fetched.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Another valid point he made was that it’s a federal offense to alter the make model and serial number of the receiver because it is tampering with the forward and backward traceability in terms of ownership and point of origin, and since he saw no signs of that other than someone clearly adding...

    The code in the bolt handle cut is the data matrix type.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Well I talked to my gunsmith earlier and he did tell me it’s for sure carbon steel and when he blasted the exterior before applying cerakote he didn’t see anywhere on it that would suggest it was welded or tampered with in that regard, he did tell me that you could visibly tell the letters US...

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Odd, that serial number would put it at 1968 I believe for a Remington 700 if that’s what happened somehow.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Just for the sake of asking, do you think there’s any reason to suspect it’s not even a real Remmington action?

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Tiny read it but didn’t respond, David hasn’t seen it yet.

    Let’s try “things that never happened” for 1000 Alex!

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Well I’d say that since his name is being thrown around at the very least he should be made aware of it, maybe not so much to get him involved but as a courtesy for him to be aware of the situation.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    If you are friends with Norm I’d contact him immediately and tell him what’s going on.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Located one of the individuals he referenced and contacted him as well letting him know what’s going on.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    This is what he said to me back in august of 2023 regarding the action, glad I never delete anything.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    I’m not overly mad about it, I didn’t pay a premium for it and it is a real 40X just didn’t have anything to do with the military. I plan to use and shoot the hell out of the rifle when it’s done anyway, will be a near clone M40A5 when done and I made it a point to go with the one piece bolt...

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Yeah that rear pocket looks to have been broached, that’s the only way to get the corners that square.

    Let’s see how this conversation goes lol.

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    From the looks of it the only thing that was added was the U.S. mark above the serial number. The depth and shape of the word remington and model 40x along with the serial number look to have been done at the same time. I think the clip slotting was also done by Remington as well which will be...

    U.S. marked clip slotted 40x action?

    Purchased a 40x action that’s US marked above the serial number and clip slotted as well as drilled and tapped for iron sights on the right rear of the action body that was from the best of my knowledge all done at the Remington custom shop and was NOS from their closure that was picked up by...
