The M40A5 added a threaded barrel for suppressor attachment and updated the stock to an A5 chassis with adjustable length-of-pull and cheek weld. It retained the Remington 700 action and 24-inch heavy stainless barrel. The A5 brought the M40 platform into compliance with modern suppressor-centric doctrine and allowed Marine snipers to operate more quietly in urban environments.
