First ask yerself -
"Do I want a match rifle, or a battle rifle?"
You can have a flash suppressor on an M1A, but not an FAL, becasue of the pistol grip.
Springfield is about the only show in town, unless you REALLY want to pay thru the nose, and get a Fulton Armory receiver, and build up from there.
I think some of the Armscopr receivers are decent, but get ready to shell some $$$$$$.
Replacing glass bedding will run you $200 -250 a pop. I supopose they don't use pillar bedding becuase maybe its not legal for service rifle.
If I had to guess, I'd say you want the DSA.
get their "kit gun." It is VERY nice.
Mine can shoot 3" groups at 200 yds with ball ammo. Not bad for $800. Recoil is minimal also. $5 mags. Integral bipod. Evil black color.
what more do you need to know???
