Does any one have a Remington 40X in 22lr for sale or know where to get one? I have tried CMP, Gunbroker, and GunsAmerica and have been able to find rifles from $1700 and up. I am looking for one of the military surplus heavy barrel rifles. My offering price depends on the condition of the rifle.

No need to contact me as I've only got one left and there's two people that have already asked for it. Sorry. There's been two nice 40X's sold on rimfirecentral this last week. That's a good place to look but they don't last long. Donald

Whew, Don has become mighty popular as of late. I'm glad I found mine when I did.

He may not have any left but he can answer just about any question you may have about one.

Of course Don has, he has posted up some killer schnitz for sale lately! Some folks snagged some nice stuff from him.

If you are still interested in one send me a PM. I talked to a guy this morning that has one for sale.

I'm very interested and hope to find one soon here. I've been checking just about every site I can find religiously with some very high priced beautiful rifles and some lower priced standard barrel models.
 
Re: I'm looking for a Remington 40x 22lr HB

John the one you linked to has a heavey barrel stock but a standard barrel bolt. Have you seen the front end of that rifle? All the seller shows is the back. The package is a good deal either way. The tube apature sight is a rare one and may be worth as much as half of the asking price. I don't even have one of the freeland tube sights. Donald
 
Re: I'm looking for a Remington 40x 22lr HB

Make sure you're getting a 40X-B (meaning the serial number ends in B). Otherwise, you'll potentially have problems fitting the rifle in a Remington 700 stock and using a trigger with a safety.
 
Re: I'm looking for a Remington 40x 22lr HB

Gentlemen, its not hard to modify a 700 stock to fit the older 40x. I;ve done it a couple of times. A little Dremmel in the safety area. If you want I'll sell you such a stock from a Remington 700 SPS Tactical, $75 + shipping
 
Re: I'm looking for a Remington 40x 22lr HB

Dan as far as I know the LH version has only been made by the custom shop. All 40X work moved to the custom shop in the 70's and the only LH rifles I've heard of came after that. There have been some RH rifles converted and a good machist should beable to do the work for you if you can find a used 40X at a good price. Donald
 
Re: I'm looking for a Remington 40x 22lr HB

CMP has sent notice that they will have 40X's again soon. Please watch their website for more info.

"The first rifle model to be listed in the Estore will be the 40X. We expect this to happen by 7 Dec 2009. Rifles will be listed under the "Rifles Surplus" tab (not shown yet)."

From an email I received.

You missed the boat, all they have left is barreled receivers WITHOUT bolt or trigger
 
Re: I'm looking for a Remington 40x 22lr HB

I took a trip out to Camp Perry and ORST (HMFIC of CMP operations) was there from Anniston and I did have a chance to talk to him briefly and he stated that this was probably the last of the 40X rifles left and that they have some Winchester 52's, however, they will probably go out via auction to the highest bidders. Yes, I did ask the stupid question about the M14's and he stated that the CMP will never sell M14's or 1911's. So in short your best bet is going to Gunbroker and GunsAmerica and pick a good one before they become scarce again.

Post on the CMP forum wtb I was not sure if I would get one at first. After a day I had three people say we bought extra rifles and would sell at what they bought them for. Nice guys over there
 
Re: I'm looking for a Remington 40x 22lr HB

Do you happen to have a link to that CMP thread? I have been over and over it but canot find it. I'm just about to pull the trigger on a purchase of one on GunsAmerica and if I could find one of those kind individuals with an extra then I could save some cash. That's a big deal because E-5 pay isn't great unless you are in the sandbox.
