Re: Army M24 Build Thread Brownell's has the Dakota bottom metal.

Re: Army M24 Build Thread Well, I've decided to quit the build project and just look forward to the actual M24 on order. I am going with 300 WIN. It'll be a few months but well worth it. I just need to find a home for the HS Precision stock and Dakota Arms bottom metal that I've got. Cheap!!

Re: Army M24 Build Thread My Dakota bottom metal came today. Friggin work of art. Precision piece.

Re: Army M24 Build Thread And I'm all over it! That's worth a case of the coldest beer right there! Thank you big time.

Re: Army M24 Build Thread Yep, at the end of the day when it comes right down to it, it doesn't make a danged difference to the barreled action what it says on the side. Figured while I was into it for a build, I'd do it up.

Re: Army M24 Build Thread As a 67 tango, there really wasn't ever a chance to see how things go when it comes to back and forth transfer of equipment. I have the ultimate respect for you guys on the ground in the thick of it all. A good friend is 11 bravo with 80-duece and like what you just...

Re: Army M24 Build Thread Rhongman, I owe you an apology. it didn't even cross my mind that yours would have been a civilian M24. Damn, I feel like a fucktard. I just re-read my response to your comment and can now see how assuming that sounded.

Re: Army M24 Build Thread GOOD GAWD, that thing is gorgeous. Here's my receiver fresh off the laser. The blackness of the letters is caused by the burn of the steel. I'll clean it up with the bead blaster. Better than I imagined!!

Re: Army M24 Build Thread Well, I said WTF and figured I'd just cut the butt pad down on the one that came with the stock. Looks right to me. I just need to straighten the edges and re-adhere the rubber to the aluminum. I'll go with it until I can get confirmation of whether or not a...

Re: Army M24 Build Thread 762slinger, Found these at optics planet. 4 cross slots. What do you think?? http://www.opticsplanet.net/leupold-mark-4-1pc-1-piece-2pc-2-piece-tactical-bases.html

Re: Army M24 Build Thread I won't be using that rail then. So if I ordered a Leupold MK4 one piece and their M30 rings, would I be closer to SPEC? I'll send the rail I've got to anyone who wants it...free.

Re: Army M24 Build Thread The next thing I need some help on is the overall finish of the barreled action. Anyone care to recommend a finish that most closely replicates the actual finish?

Re: Army M24 Build Thread Here's a link to a page within the Hide that shows what appears to be a genuine 24. You'll find a shot of the butt pad if you scroll down. Unfortunately, not a good view of the logo on the rear but it's definately thinner than the one Ive got...

Re: Army M24 Build Thread Getting back to the butt pad, I guess I would be curious to know for sure one way or another what is used on an actual M24. We have Remington logoed pads in stock.

Re: Army M24 Build Thread Funny thing about the butt pad. I have gone to bed more than a few nights wondering what to do about that. I'd rather have a Remington logo on it but didn't know if actual 24's do or not. The pad on the HS stock is screwed on. I'll have a look.
