Yes. Do it now. I waited 20 years and finally got one a couple months ago. I should have done it 20 years ago; they aren't getting any cheaper.

Bought a 9222 Loaded that was a trade in about 15 years ago. The guy that bought it new was handicapped and after one trip to the range he realized he needed a smaller and lighter rifle. He traded it in on an AR and I bought it the day after.
I think I have taken it shooting 5 or 6 times, but no way in hell would I sell it. DO IT |

No you don't, for nostalgic reasons maybe. Otherwise you'll chase accuracy and spend stupid money. Get a garand and call it good.
Like a boat it'll become a money pit. Sorry IMHO. |

I don't plan on putting in a chassis and buying a $2000 optic, so I don't see how it would become a money pit . |

The collector in me said yes. The purist said rebuild it with 100% USGI parts. The realist said you spent the money and time and have a solid clone. Do it.

I had one. Didn't care for it. The 20 rnd mags worked great. I wanted to kill a deer with it... Of course I could never get it to feed from the 10 and 5 rnd mags... The mags were noisy. The rifle was just damned long. Didn't fit the need I had. Couldn't scope it without a custom mount... Was a SA with the fucking out of spec receiver. Sold it. Sold my other 308 too.
It was a gorgeous rifle though. Might consider a scout one day. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Had a springfield 9222 model for the last 13 years until about six months ago. Looked/felt awesome. Just didnt find it very different from a garand. Sold it to a buddy, he'a thrilled with it but I dont miss it at all.

The M1A sucks, almost as overrated as the Garand.
As a surrogate for the historically significant M-14, sure. On its own merits, it falls short of other legacy platforms and even further from modern platforms. |
