Finishing up my M40 replica. I still need to mount the sling mounts. Thanks to Tokiwartooth for rebuiding and anodizing my scope, Mike Lau for the receiver work, stamping the barrel and Shawn Broussard with Titan Precision in Iota, LA. for chambering, bedding, straightening out my screwups. Ready to go shoot.

Very nice build, congrats on getting it completed! Looking closely at your photos, there's some really nice details that are part of your M40 clone build! Looks great, please let us know how it shoots when you take her out to the range!

Great job,
Is Tokiwartooth doing scopes again?
Or did he anodize your scope before he stopped?

From his last post in his thread back in November,

Toki here… starting anodizing line up again mid March. Msg me for details.

Gentlemen Some long awaited news… I think I’ve finally duplicated the tombstone! Just cut one out and mounted it up. Look clearer than the originals. Caveat… need a source for the threaded lock ring it is attached to.

Reads to me that he is hoping to be able to resume at some point.
