Re: Viet Nam era scopes ... Where's Waldo?

Re: price check on isle m40 Just thinking: You must “Check it out!” I thought the same thing several weeks ago and Dammed if it wasn’t “The Real McCoy!” Never assume! Gutowsky

Re: price check on isle m40 I’ll add my 2 cents: Most probably a 700, PSS, (available in .308/223 caliber), 24 inch “Varmint Contour” barrel length with Remington “Safety warning” on side of the barrel. Flat crown, Single sear, round type safety. Parkerized finish, (some dark gray, some a...

Re: M40 Build Guide Gentlemen: I thought that these photos of the original M40 Remington should be added as a reference for anyone attempting a “Clone” build. I may have the opportunity to see this rifle next week. If anyone wants additional pictures taken, let me know and I’ll see what I...

Re: real m40 I thought that a photo of the left side barrel markings by Remington should be added. Note: The 7.62 NATO and date codes above. (1971 manufacture date).

Re: M40 Build Guide Original USMC M40 at the range! Posted by my Son "Terryg"

Re: real m40 Thanks Son. I couldn't work out how to post them pictures. Can you post the way for people to see all the pict's? Anyone building a M40 Clone would be interested.

Re: M40 Build Guide Scottx88, You hit the nail on the head with that!

Re: M40 Build Guide Rare, yes! Why, apparently because of guys LIKE YOU! LOL. You got the market cornered. Sort of like the Hunt Bros with silver. Am I jealous? Yep! Really a Nice Collection. Now get that M40A1 return lying there finished.

Re: M40 Build Guide Sorry, Lower rear bridge. (higher, Lower: Heck, send it to me and I'll Figure it out, Ha)

Re: M40 Build Guide Perfect for a six digit (early) receiver. Your repo as well as all receivers after the “A” prefix have a higher rear bridge. I.e., the cant. Great time to do a spec. build.

Re: Camera Lens Filter as Scope Cap The idea for the polarizing filter is great.

Re: Ballistic Loophole Clearance I read the post above and had to laugh: My old friend Russ got into shooting several years ago. One day he stopped by the farm after being at the range. He looked distraught and down. Me: What’s up Russ, You look like you lost your best friend? Russ...

Re: What to do with this Walnut Stock Blank There are rifle stocks, and then “There Are Rifle Stocks” Beautiful!!! Thanks.

Re: When a barrel burns out....? Speed Kills!

Re: 700P with wood stock? Oneshot-onekill: Saw the one listed. So, buy that and round the fore-end on the stock. Add an aluminum butt plate and a pair of Wichita swivels, get a Redfield 3X9 Accurange and you’re in the “M40’ish Club”. Good enough for most! Not a Clone Spec. Build M40 as...

Re: M40 Build Guide What through me off was the picture of the correct Redfield 40X base (this thread)(posted by M40A1 peacemaker on 06/30/10). Only one screw holds the rear of the scope base. I didn’t sufficiently look at Chandlers Drawing, just assumed! My fault. I'll go stand in the corner!

Re: M40 Build Guide Your Right. I'm wrong. I'll shut up. Sorry for my mistake. Joel

Re: M40 Build Guide Dennis: What I can't get answered is: The Drawing in Chandlers book, "Death From Afar" page 194, shows a clip-slot noted as by Remington for the M40-700. Also noted are the two screw holes for the receiver sight for the X40 rifles. Is or isn’t Chandler correct: What gives?
