Up for sale is my LRB M25 built by Ted Brown. I just don’t shoot my larger semi-autos that much anymore and haven’t shot this in quite a few years; need some room in the safe for another bolt rifle build, so it’s finally time to go.
Rifle is in excellent overall condition and has 800 rounds through it, all Sierra 168s with a mild load of H4895.
I started gathering parts for this rifle around 2002. It took quite a while to gather all the TRW USGI parts for this build, plus I had to wait almost 2 years for the rear lugged LRB M25 receiver from pre-order to shipping before sending it to Ted Brown for assembly. With nice USGI parts getting harder and harder to find I’m not sure I could build another one like this.
Rifle details:
I also have the following extras to go with the rifle since I’m getting away from the M1A platform…
Asking $5000 shipped and insured for everything listed above.
$3600 for barreled action, spares, tools, and mags
$1500 for JAE Gen 3 stock -- I would prefer to sell the barreled action before selling the stock separately.
Payment via USPS MOs, bank certified check, personal check (will ship once they clear), discreet Paypal F&F, Zelle. If you’re somewhat local to the Sacramento, CA area I’d be willing to meet you at your FFL within a reasonable driving distance to save the shipping hassles.
Unfortunately shipping is going to be kind of a bitch now that UPS will no longer accept even firearm *parts* without being an FFL yourself and having a signed FFL contract on file with them (which comes along with all kinds of legal requirements including a documented and auditable shipping training program and such) so my plan is to have my FFL ship the rifle to you and I’ll have to ship all the parts and extras separately via USPS Priority since they have no policies against an individual shipping gun parts.

Rifle details:
- LRB M25 rear lugged receiver (rear lug not used by JAE stock, but I wanted the option to pillar bed and torque screw the action into a wood or Mcmillan stock in the future.)
- All USGI TRW parts (trigger group, bolt, gas cylinder, op rod) The bolt, gas cylinder, and op rod were new in wrapper. The trigger group was in used but excellent condition and was sourced from Elmer Balance in Devine, TX.
- Sadlak NM spring guide and Sadlak TiN coated gas piston
- Tubb silicon chromoly op-rod spring and hammer spring
- LRB 0 MOA and 20MOA scope rails (20 MOA rail on the action right now.)
- JAE Gen 3 stock in coyote tan with thumbscrew adjustable quick detachable cheekrest, forward and rear bottom picatinny rails, left and right side QD sockets, adjustable palmrest, adjustable buttpad spacers, and adjustable barrel tensioner system. I think the only options I didn’t order were the front side rails. Took 31 months to get it, and now that MDT owns them they aren't making the M1A stocks anymore. I do have the original box for the stock along with spare buttpad spacers, palm rest spacers, etc, but I forgot to get it out of the rafters to take pics.
- Standard solid and Schuster adjustable gas cylinder plugs
- Rear hooded ½ MOA and front thin blade NM iron sights
- Smith Enterprise muzzle brake
- Smith Enterprise extended bolt stop
- Assemble and headspace with Criterion medium weight chrome lined 10 twist barrel (Ted’s recommended barrel at the time I had it assembled—shoots great and easy cleaning.)
- Unitize gas system per AMU NM specs (screwed and staked)
- NM 4.5# trigger job
I also have the following extras to go with the rifle since I’m getting away from the M1A platform…
- Spare mainsprings & trigger springs
- Spare ejectors, extractors, and springs
- Spare firing pin and spring
- Dewey muzzle boreguides custom made to fit the Smith brake
- Sinclair chamber solvent trap
- Handguard pliers and castle nut pliers
- Drills with handles for cleaning gas piston
- Gas cylinder wrench
- Spare castle nut
- Rotating chamber brushes
- Bolt takedown tool
- Badger bolt roller greaser
- Spare bolt rollers
- Spare handguard clip
- 3x 10 round mags, 11x new in wrapper USGI 20 round mags that haven't been used, and 3x VG condition USGI 20 round mags that were used to shoot. If you live in a state where >10 round mags aren't legal, I'll have to see what mint used USGI 20 round mags are going for and I can take that off the price.
