U.S.M.C. Vietnam Era Model 700 M40
In recognition of past military service, Remington has resurrected its Model 700 M40 Rifle to commemorate the U.S.M.C. Scout/Snipers who served in Vietnam. This Limited Edition rifle has been replicated as closely as possible to the original rifles built by Remington under contract for the United States Marine Corps in 1966.
Endorsed and authenticated by the United States Marine Corps Scout/Sniper Association, and distributed exclusively by Davidson's GalleryofGuns.com, this Special Edition Remington is sure to be one of the more popular tributes to America's military history.
