Scope rings
I am posting this here because of the subject matter.
I have at least one set (probably two) of the correct rings for an M40 build. The finish is practically NIB but the screws may be buggered a little.
Are they worth $100?

Sling swivel Info: Just purchased a suitable set of swivels for the front and rear on a M40ish rifle I'm putting together.
Thy came from Grovtec US, Inc. Part # GTSV - 1 1/4 inside diameter Blk oxide finish. The rear wood screw is 3/4 inch long and of the appropriate diameter not being to fat of a screw. The front machine screw with the correct style ferrule nut is 7/8 inch long.
When you go to their site look under non-detachable locking swivel set, open up the drop box and select the 1 1/4 version, $6.99 a set and the shipping price was fair. I bought 2 sets and I'm happy with them, Are they exact, nope. But until something better comes along they'll
work just fine, and will look period correct.

Decided to get into the M40 game. Any leads or spare parts will be appreciated. Let me know what y’all have.
Well gents. I finally bought a 6 digit receiver 319,xxx. I have an M40 stock from beever156 on eBay (the forend needs to be tapered a bit, but it has the correct barrel channel and safety bump) I just need to order a barrel from Douglas, blueprint, and slap her together.
I’ve had 3 of beever156’s stocks. Agreed on needing some reshaping, but nice wood and good work overall.
This is my Beever….there are a few out there like it but this one is mine.
I didn’t ask LRI to do any reshaping because I was building an M40like not a clone…
Only criticism I have is I wish the bipod rail was set back toward the action about a beavers hair.
I’m a big fan of Beever.
