Do I really need another M1A

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Do I really need another M1A

Posted: 10/29/2003 2:22:06 PM EDT

Okay a few months ago I got a use loaded standard with two stocks 3-20's, 2-10's the 3rd gen. mount and a set of rings for $1150. I promptly went and had it glass bedded a bipod put on and a Gen III 4-14x56 mounted to it. Then I had my jaw surgically broken right before it was all done so I have yet to shoot it. But now I think I need to trade off a few guns and get a bush or scout squad and this is without ever shooting an M1A. So what do you guys think shoot I go ahead and look for another M1A?

So woodrow, you want to trade off this M1A to get another but a Bush or Scout rifle? Or do you want to keep yours and buy another?

I have contemplated that I do have 2 M1As. 1 Preban and 1 Postban. Both are the standard model and I enjoy them both. If I were in your shoes, I would get the bush as the scout model I really didn't care for.

Where are you located in NC?

Max,
I'm in Fayetteville. No I most definetly want to keep the loaded. I also want to get a scout or bush. What didn't you like about the scout that is different on the bush? I was actually thinking of trying to trade a marlin 1894 in .357 and a sig P239 in 9mm for a bush or scout. Where you at in NC?

Do I really need another M1A??

Not hard to figure that out.
You can never have enough.Just like money in the bank.

I have 3 prebans and still have enough room for more.

Keep your current sweetie and buy another...either the Scout or the Bush, whichever you like. You can never have enough M1A's....or AR's....or M96's.....or whatever....

Probably not. But that's beside the point.
