Hello from GA! Just picked up my first m1a and here to learn and ask questions!

Xmas is coming up soon and finished birch stocks are a great gift for someone who is hard to buy for. I plan on refinishing some big reds, a few TRW/ Overton, and if I have time some M1 Garand stocks as well. These stocks take about 2-3 weeks to refinish and It’s not really about the money...

Good afternoon gents, I’m a brand new member to this forum and pretty new to the platform. I’ve been collecting M1 garands for some years and decided it was time to dig into the M1A/M-14. I recently acquired an early Match Sprinfield M1A on consignment. It came with an M2 bipod, tons of ammo...

Greetings from the (906)! I'm a relatively young guy (I'd say), 28, not new to guns by a longshot, but newer to M1A's. It's not well enough for me to leave things be, I LOVE "tinkering", so rather than buying a factory Tanker, I was thinking it'd be nice to find out what my options might be to...

If you acquire a milsurp rifle (Mosin, Mauser, Enfield etc., I have many), you must be careful of the ammo. Milsurps are made to spec, designed for the rigors of the battlefield, and for specific mil ammo at the time. They are not "overbuilt" with safety, liability concerns, and not meant to...

Hey friends, Happy Holidays to you and your families. It's been a long time, and hope you're all well. Sometime ago, I purchased this NIB Bishop walnut stock from Mr. Kurt C. here on the forum and the excellent condition walnut handguard from another member whom I cannot recall at the moment...

Hello, I do not own any guns because of where I live. I have land in SE US so I'll be moving once my house is ready and my fav gun since I was about 10 has been the M14 and when I saw they make it but it is called the M1A, I fell in love. I wanted to buy a M1A Loaded but now I am hearing from...

I just bought a new M1A Standard from Springfield Armory and I’ve put about 100 rounds through it a few days ago. I have a Delta14 stock on it and I’m running OEM Springfield Armory 20 round magazines. The stock is a bit tight fitting, and sometimes the bolt will get caught while I’m hand...
