Info on M40 Commemorative Rifle ?

[Brandon972]

Just saw a write up in American Rifleman and was wondering if anyone has one or has used one and what a fair price for one would be. One thing I noticed about the ones I have found for sale is the barrel doesnt look like it is the same size as teh original.

I've been using mine for NRA LR. It shoots as good as any M700 I've owned. I have the model distrubuted by Davidsons about 2 years ago.

Thanks guys.

Scott I saw that one on GA. Seems to be about $700 more than they sell for from Impact Guns.

Anyone have some info on accuracy ?? Are the barrels teh same contour as the original M40 ??

I knew I should have bought one when they came out. I just didn't read into it to much and passed over them.
