My checking account needs time to recover from the scope and rifle cost, but that’s on my list.

Well dudes I’m freaking out a little here. I sent all my m24a2 parts off to RWS earlier this week after much hesitation because I was paranoid about this very situation, my package has gone MIA. I sent it registered mail, which I was told was the most secure way of sending something. My package hasn’t been scanned in over 2 days and was supposed to be delivered today. Well obviously that’s not happening. Do I just sit here helplessly hoping my box with thousands of dollars of parts shows up? Is there anything I can do?

I know it's hard but don't panic yet. I recently mailed a scope that showed no tracking other than initial drop off.  Nine days later it showed up on the guys doorstep.  Same thing happened with an incoming package.  Tracking showed it was on its way and then nothing.   12 days later it was delivered.  USPS is a mess.

I was told registered mail is signed for by every pair of hands it touches. It was scanned 7 times within the first 24 hours in USPS possession. Now nothing for the last 48 hours.

I'm not far from Shitcago so nearly all of my mail goes through there. I've had packages scanned in as "arrived" at (or even left, then scanned back in) the same facility several times over a couple of days.

Don't worry, that's completely normal. I have a registered mail package that's been sitting in Washington DC for almost a week now with no movement. It will get to it's destination just fine, you're only a few days into the journey. I've never lost a Registered Mail package, and neither has anyone I've known. It's by far the most secure way to ship anything! Hell, my buddy recently mailed an original USMC M40 back to me via USPS Registered Mail and insured for $100k. It arrived quickly and without any issues.

Who would you buy a barrel from for a M40a5 other than Schneider? I bought a barrel blank from Gary in 2021 and never received it. New owners wanted nothing to do with the situation and kept telling me to contact Mr. Schneider who wouldn't answer phone calls or emails. Looking for different provider.

Grail gun. Unobtanium or vastly out of reach. Firearm placed upon the pedestal of desire by the individual not matter what anyone says. See also; ZB26, SAM-R and PKM.

XM2010 "Enhanced Sniper Rifle" (.300 WinMag)

Pieced it together from EuroOptic years ago. Scope is a legit contract overrun.

The RACS chassis was literally the last tan one they had in the building. It was a demo or open box or something? I called them when I saw they were out of stock, and he found it in the back room tucked away. Lucked out big time...years later apparently they're hard to find. I recently had someone offer me stupid money for it.

It's a shame that Remington is a shell of its former self - they could have sold shit loads more of those chassis and the full XM2010 guns they used to sell too - people would still be buying them.

I know I would.

Please read my post over in this thread, post #1,346:

https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/mk-13-mod-0-stock.6343157/page-27#post-11549516

This rifle is disgusting and it's a fake. The CMP shoul be ashamed of themselves at building and painting these abominations! All they need to do is list the real military Mk13 receivers for sale and each receiver will probably hit $10k+ on their own. No need to completely fake an entire rifle! The CMP had 2 other fake Mk13's in prior auctions within the past year. Those 2 rifles had the fakest sniper paint you could ever imagine! At least the guys at the CMP have gotten a little bit better at faking the paint on this rifle! Yes, that's fake sniper paint and it's in brand new condition. Read my post in the thread that I linked to above and you'll get all the information you need.

I highly recommend not bidding on stupid shit like this and letting it sell low to make a point to the CMP about faking rifles. But, people who don't know the truth have already bid the damn thing up.

So, it's a correct Mod 3 clone in terms of parts, but it's not a genuine issued/used .mil rifle?  If so, yeah that's bold listing it like that...

I didn't bid, just to be clear.  I just saw it yesterday and noticed that it hadn't been posted here yet.  I did think to myself when looking at the pics that the paint seemed too nice to have been a used gun.  I guess I just thought to myself that it had been sitting in an arms room for awhile and wasn't really used.  That makes sense that they're building rifles out of old parts to sell, I wish that they'd just sell the parts like you mentioned though.

New sniper rifle for the collection! I recently won this CMP auction and the rifle arrived today! This is a pretty significant and extraordinarily rare M40 variation that was used by some interesting Army units! It's 100% legit, the M40 receiver was made in 1968, and it would have been converted to this M24 type configuration sometime between 1995 and 2008.

Nah, the one to have that Remington produced side by side to the M2010 would have been the MSR. Three user replaceable barrels in three calibers, 7.62mm, .300WM and .338 Lapua.  The M2010 had a factory installed barrel and it had to go back to Remington for the swap.  .300WM shoots out barrels pretty fast, so one could have spare barrels on hand when needed without shipping the weapon away for repair.  The MSR and the M2010 were virtually identical in every other respect aside from them NOT using 25 year old M24 receivers which was supposed to be a real cost saver for the Army.
