Kid,
That was a pict for an airsoft thing, but resembled a M1A SOCOM II, if you are looking for a rail system for a REM700 I think you are looking for a MARS or a Badger.
MARS

here is a pict of a Socom II

If we're going to act all superior, explain how the OP's post was diatribe? The responses were, but not the inquiry. Get a grip people. If he wants rails and Magpul gear on a 700, he ought to checkout that AR-15 style chassis for the 700.

Re: magpul gear on remington 700?
Thank you sir for correcting my poor vocabulary. I'm not trying to act superior, it comes naturally-just ask my wife.
I must have been thinking "diahrea of the mouth" instead of "a scathing remark"....
There are plenty of sites for mall ninja airsoft bullshit questions and this forum has taken a step backwards in the past couple years by embracing such stupidity.
Brad9999 posted he'd like to build a unique custom gun. If a R700 with plastic shit all over it is what comes to mind for a custom remington here, then this forum has gone to shit.
I apologize if you have a hard time with my diatribe.
Rock on with your bad self!

Re: magpul gear on remington 700?
This is my fear. Asking a question that brings down the mountain on me. I know nothing about AR's. I've shot one. I have a friend that just bought one a couple months back. Beyond that, I know nothing about them. I joined this site to learn more about them and ask questions (of which I am certain to ask some stupid ones if I have not already) so that I could make an educated purchase when I am ready to buy one.
I've read through a lot of threads on here and I have to admit that in many of them I've had to stop and wonder <span style="font-style: italic">"What the hell is that part they are talking about and what does it do?"</span> Yet I suppose that is part of the learning process. So far I have been responded to by helpful and respectful people. Did I get lucky and dodge the bullet? I can't imagine Murphy allowed that to happen...

At least you are communicating in a clear and understandable manner and you are attempting to read and research on your own to find the answers to your questions before asking them. But we all do stupid shit from time to time, I once jumped on a guy for calling a bolt gun a repeater because I had never heard that term before, boy did I look stupid on that one.
I'd love to see someone try and run a 700 with an AFG way out front and actually use the Magpul style stance while trying to work the action and all that, that would be some serious humor there.

One needs to have thick skin here.
This website will be useful for all things AR, AR15
If you decide that you want that Ar for long range precision shooting and load development, then this is the place with the best and most knowable people.
Good Luck and ask questions.

Re: magpul gear on remington 700?
Tough crowd.
Red dot scopes are generally used for rapid target acquisition in close quarters combat for semi-auto or auto weapons rather than bolt-action rifles. Magpul accessories are generally for semi-automatic rifles and in particular AR-15s or M4s.
A company named Ashbury International Group makes modular stocks with rail systems for bolt-action rifles that is useful to use with night vision and laser designators, etc:
http://www.ashburyintlgroup.com/tacticalsystems/saber/Saber-FORSST.htm
There are probably similar stocks made by other companies, but I choose this one for reference.
Airsoft products can sometimes be difficult to differentiate from the real thing in pictures. Or even with real life equipment if one is not experienced. This is evident from people being duped into buying Trijicon or Aimpoint "discount" scopes and then finding out that they are imitation airsoft scopes that don't hold zero when fired with anyone that has some recoil, e.g. non-airsoft gun. I've seen this a lot at gun shows, etc.
Brad9999, that's how we learn, by asking questions. Don't get discouraged.

If you didn't get the WTF from the other guys then you must have asked a good question. I don't care if people know nothing and wish to learn its when you get the mindless questions like "magpul gear on a remington 700" It just makes it hard to pass up when the question is already at the bottom of the laughing list. A simple question that makes sense deserves an answer. The ones that make everyone reading them dumber does not. JMHO
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: sdkidaho</div><div class="ubbcode-body">This is my fear. Asking a question that brings down the mountain on me. I know nothing about AR's. I've shot one. I have a friend that just bought one a couple months back. Beyond that, I know nothing about them. I joined this site to learn more about them and ask questions (of which I am certain to ask some stupid ones if I have not already) so that I could make an educated purchase when I am ready to buy one.
I've read through a lot of threads on here and I have to admit that in many of them I've had to stop and wonder <span style="font-style: italic">"What the hell is that part they are talking about and what does it do?"</span> Yet I suppose that is part of the learning process. So far I have been responded to by helpful and respectful people. Did I get lucky and dodge the bullet? I can't imagine Murphy allowed that to happen... </div></div>
If you didn't get the WTF from the other guys then you must have asked a good question.

I'd love to see someone try and run a 700 with an AFG way out front and actually use the Magpul style stance while trying to work the action and all that, that would be some serious humor there.</div></div>
You might be surprised...I've seen people* run some damn weird stuff before in carbine competitions just for the sheer hell of it. I can definitely see someone giving it a shot, so to speak. It can't be any worse than the SBR'd Mosin-Nagant with Aimpoint and VFG, can it?
