Let’s all guess what it will goes for. I’m guessing 1500I see the first one has hit G.B.
At least it isn’t claimed to be an original smear.I see the first one has hit G.B.

I agree but people do shady shit like that to say. Well it’s in the description.That auction title is a bit misleading but they do say its a reproduction down in the description. Simple and straightforward would have been to just say, Reproduction M40A1 smear stock by McMillan.
Looks like #008
I wouldn't say shady but definitely trying to draw as many eyes as possible. That's like many auctions will put firearm names or brand names that aren't what is being auctioned in the title/description so that they pop up in as many searches as possible.I agree but people do shady shit like that to say.

Think I'm looking at that one now. Its got an extra uncle mikes added for a harris bipod. It has a interesting fill. I've seen a couple with that sorta fudge swirl look. Don't know what that indicates for age or time period of manufacture. It's a darker green base for the forrest pattern. I don't know if those were first or the lighter green base was.I saw the molded in forest camo one list as a smear. Messaged them and they changed it. Still left the super high price for a new production forest camo htg stock
You gave them the JJ Abrams lens flare for effect. I have no Idea what they are.One of the perks of being a tool maker and working in a machine shop. You can and do make cool shit. A down side is cutting oil is everywhere’s, including on the len of your camera on your phone. The up side to that is it gives you a default glamour shot of the things you make I’ll give you one guess as to what these are for.
I always have that problem except for being able to make cool stuff. Ilocut 5720 gets everywhere.One of the perks of being a tool maker and working in a machine shop. You can and do make cool shit.

Hart or Schneider. But to probably be honest as long as the twist and contour were correct any good manufacturers barrel would work. Most people would not even know how to tell the differences.What barrel brand do most of you use for a M40A1 build? I did use Schneider for a M40A3 build in 2020
Thanks
YesI know when my Friend was in the Marines they had Hart barrels on the M40A1s then from what he told me. Did they use Hart at one time?
Hart, HS Precision, and Schneider starting very late 90s and early 2000s for barrel brands are what we had. I think we had some Douglas here and there too, it's been a bit though so don't take that to the bank.I know when my Friend was in the Marines they had Hart barrels on the M40A1s then from what he told me.

It's already over 1K!!Let’s all guess what it will goes for. I’m guessing 1500

Wow, it was still two hundred something the last I saw. I kinda hoped it'd stay that way till the end. I'd join and snatch it up for 300. lol Another dream snatched away by reality.It's already over 1K!!

It's a guy who lives 5 mins away from me! What are the odds!I see the first one has hit G.B.
Did you empty out the clear sleeve with the invoice slapped on the outside of the shipping box (should be right above the UPS label)? The sticker was placed behind the folded paper invoice in there.I didn’t get the cool sticker with mine!!!!!
It went higher alright. 23 bids put it up to its sold price of $3625.99 on the 24th of october.True, they could just be badly mistaken but it is a dealer so I would think they'd google if it could earn more money. Its nearly $2700 now with a couple days to go. It will likely go higher before its over.
So you got an extra special oopsmear. You'll have to build it with the bigger lug to keep it's uniqueness. Wonder how few oopsmears are in people's hands?This is the reply I got yesterday from McMillan in regards to the stocks that had the recoil lug cut for a 5/16th recoil lug. That’s still an error stock, since this is a spec m40a1 stock 50th anniversary smear with a different recoil lug cutout from McMillan that isn’t spec.
Talked with several people on here and know of 2 so far. Both are in the 20’s rangeSo you got an extra special oopsmear. You'll have to build it with the bigger lug to keep it's uniqueness. Wonder how few oopsmears are in people's hands?
So likely 10 or less like that. If that group was split between two machines then no more than 5 likely. The unique histories continue even with new production.Talked with several people on here and know of 2 so far. Both are in the 20’s range
Stock #28"s recoil lug cutout measures .266. Only got the red sticker.I received my stock #30. I had two stickers in the box. One red and one black. Also my recoil lug cut out is for the standard.187 recoil lug. Super Nice Stock!
For Fix?Has anyone tried their bottom metal in these new stocks for fix?
