M1a SOCOM

[Newb37752]

Need some advice on this one fellas. Ive been looking and found a Springfield M1A SOCOM CQB with collapsible stock. So just wanted everyone's thoughts on this rifle. It's 1700.00 bucks which I could spend and get a DD in 308 but the M1a SOCOM with the archangel stock looks modern yet classic at the same time. I owned an M1a match grade in wood but sadly pussed out on taking care of the wood stock the correct way and sold it ( I know stupid but some of these wood stocks take work to keep up and wasn't ready for that at that time in my life). I don't even know if these things are even made in the US everything springfield has comes from the Croats. Good builds but I had a Helion, great rifle, couldn't find any support for it from accessories standpoint. Long post sorry but let me know what ya think good rifle or just get a DD for the same price.

If you want an M1A, just get the Scout instead. Much easier rifle to shoot.
