That was my chassis. Didn't have much bearing for where the price would go so started it at 7, either way I was well ahead. Only reason it ended at 10k was my buy it now mark. Based on the bids it would have gone higher. I got what I hoped for though. Market is crazy.Not sure if any of you follow the parts, but an M40A6 chassis sold yesterday for $10k. I was surprised he started it under 10 and even more surprised that it had no bids into the final hour.
So!.. What's the new hotness to start collecting parts for?
I previously had a Remington 40X 22lr M40 clone built, I was hoping for a pair unfortunately the stocks are quite different:

Probably going to stick with the Leupolds at least for now. I have a green scope that Toki anodized, but I need to decide if it is going on my 6 digit smear project... I can't decide what scope to use so I will probably try them all out and then go with the one I like the best. Just waiting on the barrel now!

I went with a Hart barrel on the M40A1 so it would have a smooth finish to go with the smear stock instead of the rougher Schnider barrel. The M40 has a Douglas barrel.beautiful pair. saving for a rimfire or 223 m40 build...
love that smear. didnt know you finally got one. great one to get. and you have to go with the Unertl on the smear...
what barrel did you get?

Haha I hear ya! That's the first M40A6 chassis I've seen on Gunbroker... I was shocked because 7 is what people were paying for the suppressor two years ago!That was my chassis.

I saw that too. A6 is such a sweet rifle I love mine. New hotness for me is the XM3. Still need couple items for the kit but she’s ready to be built nowNot sure if any of you follow the parts, but an M40A6 chassis sold yesterday for $10k.

Haha thanks!fixed it.
Did you go with one of the new PTG Ti bases?I saw that too. A6 is such a sweet rifle I love mine. New hotness for me is the XM3. Still need couple items for the kit but she’s ready to be built nowView attachment 8336529
Yes I didDid you go with one of the new PTG Ti bases?
What about the recoil lug? Those are the last 2 pieces I need for mine.Yes I did
Really missing that old $2,700 something price tag for one at eurooptic right about now.Not sure if any of you follow the parts, but an M40A6 chassis sold yesterday for $10k. I was surprised he started it under 10 and even more surprised that it had no bids into the final hour.

holly shit these are hot !! if you are in the mood to let one of these go please shoot me a msg I, I got a check with your name on my man.
It's nuts! I'm tempted to part with mine even with the project in the home stretch, if it'll get $12-15k. That's ATACR and CNVD money for other guns. The FA762SS is someone that has been trying to sell here for what people were bidding on them 1-2 years ago. My guess is it doesn't hit his reserve, if it actually breaks $4k. Prices on these have been on their way down consistently and even GB isn't biting hard anymore. Weird timing on all this!another a6 chassis sold on gb yesterday via BIN for $12k.....not affiliated with seller....there is also a SF suppressor on gb now, listed as bid with reserve or BIN of $7500.....again not my sale....
Yeah it’s nuts not only the amount but how fast they’re going. I think that one was only up there for a couple hours before someone snagged it I Yeah it’s nuts not only the amount but how fast they’re going.

Supposedly PTG purchased 3,000 of the M40a6 chassis, the remaining inventory from Remington, discussed last Dec in a WTB thread....reported by @RemCustom6 ........and I occasionally nose around at CMP....I have great confidence that at some point some of the disposal inventory of a6s will appear there just like the XM3s or the Unertl 10x or even the MK13 "stuff" ....
That’s awesome man I just shipped mine off to builder this past Monday. Can’t wait to get this one completedThe gangs all here. Parts should ship out next week, then time to finish the Fa762ss form1 clone

Did Jeff Bosserman build yours too?My GaPrecision built A6
Not sure what’s his stamp?Did Jeff Bosserman build yours too?
Man I wish I could find one of those scope caps!!My GaPrecision built A6
The Harris bipod is the S-BRM 6-9" with notched legs with pod lock leverNeeding clarification for an A6
-Is there a specific model of Harris bipod?
-I see that the Larue mount is very hard to find in civilian hands, anybody have one they dont need or whats the next closest?
-For the scope, was NF used or is the S&B really the only "accepted" scope for an A6?
Thanks!
Thanks Topgun!The Harris bipod is the S-BRM 6-9" with notched legs with pod lock lever
The Larue LT840-34-0 is the correct mount as you mentioned but there are also pics of the Larue LT845 and Badger sasr rings used as well
Correct glass would be the Schmidt and bender 3-12 MTC turret with gen 2 mil dot reticle, Premier heritage 3-15 Single turn elevation with gen 2 mil dot reticle or the nightforce atacr 5-25 with tremor 3 reticle.
