the Model M24A3
Madison, NC
– Remington Military Products
Division (MPD) continues to work diligently to provide our
nation’s military forces with highly effective firearm tools for
use in the defense of our nation. New for 2006 is the Model
M24A3 Sniper Weapons System (SWS) – a long range version of
the widely used Model M24 Sniper Weapons System which has been
the standard for the US Army since 1988.
Features of the newly introduced Model M24A3 SWS
include a detachable five-round box magazine; choice of a H-S
Precision Pro-Series 2000 stock assembly or Accuracy
International Chassis System (AICS) which both feature
adjustable length of pull (LOP) and adjustable cheek rest; the
Modular Accessory Rail System (MARS); Leupold® Mark 4®
8.5-25x50mm M1 Tactical Scope; and OPS INC 12th Model
338 LM muzzle break and sound suppressor. Unique to this
Remington bolt action is an external extractor system which
ensures reliable, consistent feeding and extraction of the
powerful 338 Lapua Magnum cartridge.
The Model M24A3 SWS
is based upon the combat proven M24 Sniper Weapons
System in use today by the US Army in the Global War On
Terrorism and is widely considered as the standard by which
other sniper rifles are judged.
The Model M24A3 Sniper Weapons
System can be purchased as a complete package or as an
optional upgrade system for existing M24 Sniper Rifles. The
Remington Military Products Division delivers weapons that offer
surgical precision and reliability to those who demand the best.
