1)If we paid for these in the 1st place, did we sell the scrap back to Remington?

2)Wasn't the M24 custom re-built at the sniper school, After they were received?

3)I understand that mom keep the barrel, action, & trigger group? So this is an almost new, rebuilt, kinda like, semi-REAL M24??

4)Is the price really 3500 USD??

The Army told Remington, "Keep everything NOT the serial-numbered receiver." The Army gave up everything (including the serviceable Leupold M3As since the 2010 gets a newer, better scope).

Remington made new 700 receivers and basically bolted on all the serviceable old parts, reaping straight profit.

Smart business.

Ahhhh - but what price nostalgia? (No - I'm not paying it either. Though I did buy a raffle ticket for one. Apparently the gods haven't looked favorably on my libations cause I haven't won one yet.)
