Description:
Stoner Rifle SR-25 7.62MM
From Knights Manufacturing Co. we bring you this early and original Stoner Rifle SR-25 in 7.62x51 NATO or .308 Win. The rifle bears serial # 21086 and was manufactured on Sept 15 1993 back in the Vero Beach days. The rifle has a 24-inch barrel with 5R rifling and is free floated with fiberglass sleeve as the fore end. The rifle appears to have had very little if any use at all. Receiver or upper if you will, has Pic Rail or Weaver type rail machined into it for mounting and remounting of various sight packages. There is a Pic or Weaver base as well on the forward gas block should one choose to use iron sights. An examination of the bolt, buffer and bore seem to indicate possible test firing but that is about it. Bolt face, and ejector are devoid of any brass or other signature material. There are a few spots at the edges of the upper which exhibit some wear probably from improper storage or handling. There are not even any scratches or wear marks from a magazine being inserted into this rifle magazine well. The trigger is factory stock two stage and breaks clean. The magazine has gone missing but are available for sale at various outlets.
The following paragraph was borrowed from Christopher R. Bartocci who has forgotten more than I will ever know about this rifles design. Mr. Bartocci also has made numerous excellent internet videos on this and other significant rifles and all are well worth the time to find and watch.
“Introduced in the early 1990s the SR-25 shared 60% parts compatibility with the current issue M16A2. Funding for the SR-25 development came through commercial sales. As first introduced, the rifle had a 24 inch Remington 5R rifled barrel. At that time, KAC was the only company Remington would sell these precision barrel blanks to. The Match rifle was designed specifically to fire factory 168 grain open tip match ammunition. With this ammunition Knight guaranteed that every rifle that left his Vero Beach facility would fire at or less than one inch at 100 yards and he was willing to prove it by sending the target with every rifle. The original rifles used AR-10 magazines but Stoner would redesign the magazine and improve it giving it a more familiar M16 look. The rifle used the newly introduced integral rail flat top upper receiver so optics could be mounted in line with the shooters eye. The bolt carrier group would retain the original chrome plating and this would go on to be a KAC trademark. The upper and lower receivers were serialized and fitted for precision fit and the SR-25 had a free floated barrel using a carbon fiber handguard. The rifles were not mass produced and when one thinks of Knight's Armament Company a standard is set for the finest weapons in the world where state-of-the-art meets old world craftsmanship. Stoner continued to improve his design until his death in 1997. Unfortunately, Stoner never saw his new rifle to be finally accepted by the U.S. military as the Mk11 Mod 0 sniper rifle, which would equip the most elite soldiers and sailors the world would ever know.”
