SPRINGFIELD ARMORY STANDARD M1A RIFLE, WALNUT STOCK

Springfield Armory M1A Standard Model rifle

The M1A Standard is the most commonly-purchased rifle in the M1A family. It's the rifle you think of when you watch "Full Metal Jacket". It's as close to a GI-issue M14 as you can get.

The Standard model has all of the features of an M14, photo of soldier in Iraq aiming his M14 rifleexcept full auto capability. It has the carbon steel barrel, gas operated rotating bolt action, ten or twenty round magazine capacity, military sights, and hefty walnut stock.

It's the rifle that is based upon the M14, a weapon designed in the 1950's but still used by our military today.

"I wanted an M1A for years and didn't get one until two years ago. It's just like the M14 I got to shoot in training many years ago. In fact it's better. I get really good groups even with factory ammunition. I think they could have put something a little better than the plastic shield over the barrel for a gun that cost this much. Other than that I love it. I wish Springfield Armory could make them for less money but it's still worth it."
