I've got a buddy looking to get a Springfield Armory M1A. Does anybody know of one for sale at a good price or have any recommendations for a shop that has good pricing?

Thanks!

Darren

I just got mine off Gunbroker. I paid around 1200 bucks for a brand new M1A, standard model with walnut stock. Last fall there was a store in Dayton selling the same one for 1350 or so.

Tell him to wait till middle / end of July and just go to Camp Perry and buy one directly from Springfield. It will be the best price anyone will ever get on a New one.

Camp Perry in the last two weeks of July is THE place to be to get deals on anything reloading and on anything related to US service rifles.

Two words: Commercial Row.

BTW, the National Matches are open to the public for spectating/browsing/shopping.

Isn't that a pretty good drive? These deals big enough for the 50-100$ gas bill?

got to love gas prices.

Yep!

I have found Camp Perry's deals to be: OUTSTANDING!

See if you can e-mail or call an AR15 bud going there and pick stuff up for you.

Thanks for the heads up on Camp Perry. I'll let him know.
