"Swing by the shop when you can..." (Remington XM2010)
Sonofabitch
July has been a rough month. I should know better than to go down there when I get that text but it's always something cool and 9/10 times I end up with it.
Todays crack was a Factory Remington XM2010 deployment set as delivered to the Army. It's all there....the only piece that isn't is the AAC Titan suppressor which I plan to pick up in my own time.
Has the big Pelican case, soft case, sling, stock spacers, 5 mags, cleaning kits, spare parts galore and a few other odds and ends. Scope was already mounted at the factory. Curious to see if it's sighted or not.
I've only heard of a few of these squeaking out, and short of one other I found available online I haven't seen one in years. Not sure what my plans for it are yet, but here are some pictures since everyone loves those

You can tell it's a new Remington, no one is willing to take credit for assembling it and no one has inspected it.
In all seriousness though, looks pretty cool. Best of luck with it.

So what was your final cost for this gem?

Sweet. Now you're ready to provide overwatch at the next Super Bowl.

Interesting rifle, and definitely a rarity. Hope you like it. Also hope you didn't pay anywhere near list for it.
Personally, I wouldn't buy one --- Remington action, 300WM, Leupold Mark 4.

I'm in it for the right amount and in it as a collectors item. It checked the boxes

Curious if it has the Bartlein barrel it won the trials with or the factory Remington barrel.This message has been edited. Last edited by: swage,
