The Remington Model 740 semi-automatic rifle has long been out-of-production. You may be able to find an original stock on one of the firearms auction sites, like Auction Arms.com, or you might try ebay. Consider that the later model rifle stocks, like the 742, 7400 and 74 Express stocks will also fit, but will not match the 740 Model forearm pattern.
The Remington Model 740 is a magazine fed rifle. The magazine is removed by pushing on the small lever which is on the bottom of the magazine and pulling the magazine straight down. Four rounds of ammunition are loaded into the magazine and the magazine replaced in the rifle. Pull the forearm of the rifle back and push it forward to chamber a round. Beware: The 30-06 round packs considerable punch when fired in such a light rifle. Recoil should be seriously considered.
