Quoted: if it were up to me, i'd keep the m1a amd get an AR to keep it company. Funds ar non-existant now due to the knee injury (went from combined income of around $70K/yr to wife's $38K, and the bills are relentless) As I will be issued USGI M4, would like to have one that I can check out of the arms room on my own...in case of ammo shortages that have plagued the military from the Klinton era. I like to be just a little more proficient than the 2 times a year qual. |

Keep the M1A, you will be issued a M4 or M16A2.
No way I am going to sell my FAL. SFC(ret) Rew E. Williams |

how does it shoot with surplus ammo like hirtenburger? I you get good groups with surplus ammo then keep it. M1A is the ultimate battle rifle available to civilians, 7.62mm, 20 round mags, flash hider, accurate, reliable. Don't do it.

Good groups, all rounds (100 fired and 300 in mags & boxes) so far have been Hirty. Like I said above, I REALLY want to get the XM25 for a long-range rifle, but won't even have the time to use it until all of my BT and jump refresher stuff is out of the way, at which time I'll have enough banked to buy it. Don't have MOA/ grouping info, but after sight in, put 90 rnds into one of those square plastic cat litter buckets on rapid fire @ roughly 100m |
