    T or F ? Its only an M40A1 if it has all the right parts

    I guess what is nice is the real-deal issue rifle is still preffered but the anomolies are nice to talk about to. BrianLara and I share that interest. Again though for me the original issue with correct parts and optic is preferred.

    M40a1 build guide

    The small number of aquired Cs makes it a difficult thing to duplicate properly if trying to find a close serial range, I think I heard they were all C671XXXX. However if not concerned with getting the serial that close there are other Cs out there. Es seem like great actions as well, I'm...

    Prototypes didn't have US over serial or "M24" next to model number. Check out NRA national firearm museum XM-24. http://www.nramuseum.org/the-museum/the-galleries/wwii,-korea,-vietnam-and-beyond/case-67-modern-conflicts-vietnam-desert-storm/remington-xm24-sniper-rifle-prototype.aspx Closeup...

    T or F ? Its only an M40A1 if it has all the right parts

    Well unfortunately I'm missing certain photos that I used to have, also threw out the mags the photos were taken from as well so I can't post pics of the person with McMillan da/night scope on a slim rail. But I do trust what you said regarding Ross and others rails so thanks on that!

    Army M24 Build Thread

    Its a shame the Army didn't go with the AICS stock for the new issue rifles. I'm not saying the tube handguard chassis don't work but I can barely get myself to like any chassis, and if its going to be one better it be a flat bottom forend like the AI stuff or other domestic venders(Or AI with...

    Down goes Mosul.

    In short freedom requires morality of some level, a basic respect for others combined with the willingness to be responsible for your own crap. Humor I pray stays with us for eternity. Yet there are times now more frequent than others that its just a bit too much "gallows humor" inslulating...

    Down goes Mosul.

    ....My favorite gunstore growing up was near a rail yard. You could feel and hear the wine of the torque of diesel-electric engines through the windows of that shop! Fantastic machines! Sorry for all the back-to-back posts. I'll hold off.

    My most pessiFNmistic: most Americans no longer favor true freedom either, most Americans hate freedom. I don't know what they think will replace it but it won't feel like Sweden whatever it is! I think it will be several generations before Americans accept freedom.....again.

    Down goes Mosul.

    Never mind dropping the ball in 1991, I kinda wish Patton had been allowed to "finish" WWII completely rather than stop it all in May or August of 1945. Don't stop the tanks with Germany nor the silverplate B-29s with Japan! That being said I would agree that the lesser of two foreign evils...

    Down goes Mosul.

    Not that I've done Fk to do my part compared to a lot of great men and women but I'll just say that what people can do for another selflessly on a personal level what may seem insignificant, can end up effecting another person greatly their state of being. So this may still seem like a bunch of...

    T or F ? Its only an M40A1 if it has all the right parts

    I remember I may not have talked with you about the PVS10 but I was talking with you about a McMillan scope. I had an old photo attached to an SC thread from a magazine article of Thunder Ranch or maybe it was Gunsite training. Two Marines who participated in a training or maybe a compitition...

    T or F ? Its only an M40A1 if it has all the right parts

    Yes it was you Mike of Tactical Intervention slings. Its unfortunately been a long time ago since we talked, and it may have been on SC forum on a very old thread rather than this forum. I can retract that I heard it from you if you think I'm wrong it that. TMA mentioned night vision as well but...

    T or F ? Its only an M40A1 if it has all the right parts

    Thanks for the updates on the info TwoMan! So the milling was across the top of the base(perpendicular to the actions bore axis/hole axis)? or was the milling down the center of the action top the same direction as the axis of the holes? The reason I ask is you mention the the milling was "front...

    Army M24 Build Thread

    You want the best? Springer 03A3 with Unertl or No.4(T) Long Branch with Weaver Alaskan scope! Well I guess my qualifier for best sniper rifle is the romantics surrounding these rifles rather than the actual performance! M24s are sweet, a lot of history behind their successful career as well...

    T or F ? Its only an M40A1 if it has all the right parts

    OK I recently talked to TWOMANATTACK tonite and picked his brain over one of the rigs he carried that was a special setup. I'm sure there's more to it but I didn't want to piss him off with too many questions. Bassically what he told me was he had a rig that was a limited affair, something to be...

    T or F ? Its only an M40A1 if it has all the right parts

    refering to my previous post, here is what TwoManAttack briefly mentions during his build thread post#969 "*Some of the rifles @ horno had a pic rail and rings. The top of the receiver was milled and the rail was recessed into the slightly milled reciever. I saw a couple other rifles at the...
