I bet you've seen it before but here it is. It started out as a used up 1640 I bought here on the classifieds for $350 shipped. The seller let me know in advance the barrel toast and it was. I sent it off to Mike McCabe for a new barrel, sights and a M98 3-position safety. Then I took an old BRNO 21H stock and made a pattern for it, sent it off and had it duplicated. Mike did the metal and rust blue and I did the stock.

It's about half custom and half DIY grin

It's a departure from most 1640 builds I'm really happy with the results.
