I have a SA M14 serial #061XXX. Which if I'm correct has it made in 59-60. Excellent condition. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Some additional background information, the government Springfield Armory did not place a leading zero on M14 rifle serial numbers. Neither did the government Springfield Armory place a hyphen in the model number. The government Springfield Armory receivers were marked with the model number "M14." USGI M14 rifle serial number 61XXX was produced by Harrington & Richardson Arms Co.

A real M14 would have a center dismount notch for the op rod on the receiver rail. Commercial receivers have the op rod dismount notch near the rear sight, as on the M1 Garand.
