[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 172502, member: 3"] A while back I got a few turn-in USMC M40A1 sniper rifle stocks... A stock without a rifle is a real shortcoming in my book so I immediately set about filling in the missing pieces. The rifle pictures here on the top is a early variant of the USMC M40A1 sniper rifle. The first few McMillan fiberglass 'smear-style" stocks were fitted to rebuilt Remington 700 and utilized thee then common Redfield Accurange scopes. The rifle pictured on the bottom is a late model version M40A1 built by G. A Precision, this is still a McMillan stock but with the more refined woodland pattern and the Unertal style base and scope (these items pictured here are U. S. Optics variants). [IMG]http://www.longrangehunter.com/m40a1/M40A1-GAP-pair-L-S.JPG[/IMG] Now the rifles reversed: Ed Harren built rifle on the bottom and G. A. Precision on the top. [IMG]http://www.longrangehunter.com/m40a1/M40A1-GAP-pair-R-S.JPG[/IMG] Here's a better look at the clip slotting done on the Doc Harren rifle.
