I don't think I was born on dates. :?

But I might have been conceived during one. :lol:

PM sent.

 

Note: If a M1A rifle left the factory with match conditioning work (Match, National Match M1A, Super Match M1A, M21, M25 White Feather), it was built with care by trained armorers:

1971 to November 1974: John Holden or Chuck Krause in Texas or Glenn Nelson or Wayne Young in Georgia
November 1974 to about 1999: Glenn Nelson and his staff in Georgia
About 1999 to April 2004: Either Glenn Nelson and his staff or Springfield Armory, Inc. staff in Illinois
May 2004 to Custom Shop closure for rifles (circa 2022): Springfield Armory, Inc. staff

97333 5/95

 

Phil, any chance 097333 is 05/96? I spoke with a former employee at Valley Ordnance who kept track of receiver serial numbers shipped from them to SA, Inc. M1A serial number 097726 shipped from VO to SA, Inc. on May 19, 1996.

 

Loaded M1A, 1189xx, headspaced on 7-21-99 by CS to 1.632.

Gents,

Serial number 1664XX 8/04/04. SA Loaded Standard Stainless.

Good luck,

Hello,

Model number MA9802, serial number 1013XX, 4/2/97 I guess its a discontinued model from what the factory told me.

Sorry for the late post Different, as I recall the kind ladies statement from Springfield 5/28/95 I remember this date as it is the same as my Pop`s his 5/28/41

Thanks, Phil. I'm going to consider this particular Customer Service Department response a historical inquiry "flier" so to speak. I've put 097333 down as 05/96. Mr. Brezinski's serial number records are unquestionable prima facie historical documentation as he was the shop foreman at Valley Ordnance from 1993 to 1996. I asked Al at LEAST three times to slowly and deliberately annunciate the very last complete M1A receiver serial number shipped to Geneseo, IL. He gave the same answer each time, 097726. There's just no way Valley Ordance stamped 097333 in May, 1995 and 097726 in May, 1996.

 

Serial number list has been updated.

 

Our warranty is for the life of the gun against defect in workmanship no matter how many owners or what length of time.

Lexi,



I did indeed buy this rifle, it is New in Box. Never fired, still had the SA Tag on the trigger, with all the papers, including the Warranty Card.



My question, does the Lifetime Warranty Apply to me? No problems, just wondering.



Thanks, and have a great weekend.

Good Afternoon!

The serial number you gave me, 0797XX, is in deed a pre-ban model, manufactured in April of 1994 prior to the September 1994 ban date. Hope this helps!

Lexi, the one you helped me with before is gone, here's another.

Was considering buying a used M1A, serial number 0797XX



A lady on the phone told me it was a pre-ban, manufactured May 1994. Would you please confirm this back to me via e-mail?



Thank you.

Different, you got my date wrong.

I hope the dates being submitted are either:

The manufactured date from SA, Inc. OR

First owner purchase. This category may be off by quite a few months, but will still surfice to get a rough idea. A rifle rarely will sit on a shelf for more than a few months.

If any are second owner purchases, the dates can be confuse the issue.

 

Bill, I've asked that the dates provided be from the factory headspace tag in the box or the shipped date available from SA, Inc. Customer Service. The dates are tracking very well as far as I can see with perhaps one or two.

 

Natl Match 1264xx 5/00 1.6315"

 

The firearm that corresponds to serial number 034299 was manufactured in May of 1985 as a standard M1A with a NM barrel. That is all I can tell you about it.



Thank You,

Lexi
