Piteously Uniformed, I would have to check my notes when I get home with regards to serial #6257341. Scionics was obviously way down south (as I recall Alabama or Georgia, I 'd have to go look to correct my recollection).
#Remington 700 rifle serial number lookup serial numbers
The highest serial number I have seen on a US marked, clip slotted Model 700 is 6257341.Īlso, I have talked to the historian guy(s) on the phone at Remington about serial numbers in this serial number range, as we all know they are not overly helpful, and he/they have stated that at least some of the guns in this range were built in 8/69 and shipped by Remington in 12/69 to "Boston MA." Does anyone have any idea who or what entity would have been receiving these 7 digit guns or some of these guns in Boston? I am not at all familiar with the military facilities that existed there in 1969. I'm under the impression that the presentation rifles were originally an Air Force contract rifle but Marty B would know for sure. The CMP rifle that sold for $360259, another barreled action that CMP sold a few years ago was 6257301 $4650). One presentation rifle was sold by Rock Island Auction in late 2009, ($14950) serial # on that rifle was 6257284, I'm pretty sure that 6257227 was another but I would have to check my notes. Mescabug, I believe there were 4 or 5 USMC M40 presentation rifles built, serial numbers for two are listed in Senichs book 6257207 & 6257276.
Bolt is serialized to the action, and has good headspace." This barreled action appears to have been rebarrelled since the barrel does not have the typical Remington proof marks/stamps on the left side of the barrel, and has a recessed crown. Short action Remington M700, clip slotted and US marked. This barreled action is serial number 6257239, and may have been an USAF rifle. " M40 Sniper Rifle Barreled Action (serial #) 6257239 Information is lacking re the mysterious USAF M40 rifles, but I will note that CMP auctioned off one of these barreled receivers in 2015 (for big $$), that may have been transferred to them from the Air Force: " I have 2 Rem 700 receivers the one I'm going to build on first is ser # 6,243,9xx does this number fall into the correct range for the m40".Īs others have noted, that is not in the serial number range for USMC M40s, but apparently your serial # of 6.24M is kind-of close to some M40s reportedly used by the US Air Force (and for R&D purposes).
