Payment Types Accepted: AmEx, Discover, Master Card, Visa, Money Order, Certified Check, Personal Check (item held until check cleared) Description: In 2004, the USMC Scout Sniper Association approached Remington about making some commemorative M40s. About 1,500 were made and sold, but they didn’t have scopes and differed in other small ways from the original. Eventually, Chuck Mawhinney teamed up with Andrew Hendrick, the owner of Riflecraft, Ltd. (a company that sells and modifies shooting equipment and trains professional shooters). They approached Michael Haugen of Remington, a Special Forces sniper and Remington’s military projects manager, about making more exact version of the M40. The process took a few years, but eventually the rifles appeared, with the actions stamped "CBM8541", Charles Benjamin Mawhinney’s initials and his Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) designation. Only 103 were initially made, one for each of Mawhinney’s confirmed kills. An over-run of 32 rifles was made shortly thereafter. This is one of those rifles. George Gardner of G.A. Precision free-floated the barrels and pillar-bedded the actions in Marine-Tex. He then had Chuck Mawhinney’s signature and the rifle’s individual number from 001 to 103 engraved on the floorplate. The Leupold-owned Redfield worked with Kevin Trepa, a former Marine officer and vice-president of Leupold’s military and law enforcement branch, to produce a correct 3-9X scope. Marty Bordson of Badger Ordnance had an original M40 mount, a Redfield modified specifically for the M40, and provided reproductions for the project. These rifles are more faithful to the original M40 than the first Remington reproduction, right down to the clip-loading slots in the top of the action. Almost everything else is also exactly the same, from the alloy buttplate to the heavy 24-inch barrel with a 1:12-inch right-hand twist. In fact, the entire rifle weighs 9 3/4 pounds, precisely the same as Mawhinney’s. There’s even a green webbing sling, very close to the sling issued with the original rifle. This rifle is like-new and comes with the rifle's box and manual and the scope's box! It has never been fired.
