The Springfield Armory M1A is a semi-automatic rifle that's as much at home on the range as it is a centerpiece in your military collection. This civilian version of the M14 rifle, introduced in 1974, has been meticulously maintained and shows only light, superficial signs of prior handling or use. The bore condition is excellent, with a clean, mirror finish and sharp lands and grooves indicating little to no wear. This particular model features a gas piston action, a 22" barrel, and a robust Parkerized finish for increased corrosion resistance.
Manufactured in the United States, this rifle retains its original paperwork, a picatinny rail, a set of scope rings, and one 20-round magazine. It has a wood stock and a Parkerized finish. The front post is shrouded and drift adjustable, while the rear sight assembly is not currently installed but included in the sale. The 20+1 capacity and .308 NATO caliber make it a powerful firearm for any shooting enthusiast. However, please note that the aperture to the rear sight is missing.
Steeped in history and enhanced for modern use, the M1A is a testament to Springfield Armory's commitment to quality and performance. All the design features that the Armed Services found essential for a battle rifle are present in the Standard M1A, making it a great shooter. The high capacity and powerful caliber are perfect for range days or adding to your military collection. Don't miss out on owning this piece of firearm history.
