If your smith follows the print above there shouldn't be a problem at all. The M40A5 is Item #3 on the list. It should go without saying but all turning needs to be done in one set up to make sure the threads are running with the .775" diameter.

No. 2.236 is the center of the radius, not the edge.

Anyone who uses one of his base set is going to run into the same problem. His rear lug is left oversize intentionally with the though of filling it to match the clip slot on your action. But if you have Virgin action you can cut the action to fit the base which is much easier. The very first...

One last note on the M40 drawing above. If you want that thump notch with the "S" notch see my dimensions above but instead of the .236" "Y" Dimension use .200" and then use a dremal tool to hand sand the point to create the "S" version. It's not hard but you should take your time. Good Luck.

Is this Long Action?

What are you asking for stock alone?

I'll take sloppy thirds on the AIC mags if the other don't want them. :)

I'll take the Break. PM me your information please.

How many of the AICS 5 round mags you have left?

From my understanding I bought the very last one. I wanted Black but they were out and this one was all that was left. But definitely Check them out to be sure, never know they my have started making them again.

My personal M40A5, she's my baby.

New, Like new, Slightly used? What's the condition, that will go a long way in determining approximate value.
