Re: building an M40A?

i saw that and it seemed to be more of an replica build with proper number. im looking for more of an options list and i will probably be building more of an m40a3 according to my cousin a 2112 at quantico

My comment and suggestion is forget about calling it an M40A(whatever) and just build the rifle that you want to shoot. In reality if it isn't a clone it's silly to call it an M40.

I'd say start with a PSS to get your feet wet before you go into the custom rifle.
