Yes I likely will. Just need to get my hands on a rm varmint contour barrel, and then I'll get it trued and bbl installed all at the same time. I also have a 40X trigger that I will put on it as well.

Here's how it's looking so far. I'm going to try and find the aluminium butt plate, and sling swivels and a sling that looks somewhat correct.

TexasRedNeck:
:like

KensAuto:
That's a great looking rifle.  :beercheers:

Thanks guys, I've always loved the look of these as well.

My biggest conundrum is what to do for a finish on the barrel. The action and bottom metal are blued. From what I understand the M40's weren't a shiny finish like a blued finish, but more matte, like a parkerized finish or something.

I don't want to paint the action. Do you all think it would look semi-legit if I got the barrel blued to match?
