However, as one that has been casually looking - finding a Sage EBR stock that has the correct top cover for a med heavy wt barrel at the right price - this is a needle in a hay stack at this point. A forum community dedicated to M14 and M1A Rifle owners and enthusiasts. Secondly, if your pokin around on the boards and you know what you are looking for there are some great deals out there right now. If you want something special - it'll probably take a while to get, but it'll be worth it in the end. The majority of the wait was waiting for LRB.Īlong the way I also stumbled into a ban era SA Match - that shoots just as well.for cheap.
Your going to spend a shit load of money and are going to get a heavy rifle that you can't field strip. Don't go down the road of trying to get 1 MOA accuracy. I waited about a year for GAP to build me an LRB with all USGI parts, a Rock barrel and an MCM stock - outstanding shooter. 18 (100) I think a LRB, Fulton Armory or Smith Enterprises M1A/M14 would be a good rifle provided you have a practical/realistic expectations. Do some reading - take a LONG look at Fulton and ask yourself if you are paying premium money for less value than you are getting from a nationally known M14 smith. I guess they could if welded ones can come loose, but I have not had it happen.Ĥ. I have never had a steel Smith mount come loose. If you are looking to jump to the head of the line on an LRB - call Ted Brown and see if he can help put the word out on that you are looking for either a built gun or a receiver.ģ. LRB - seriously decide if you want the M25 (built in rear mount) and loss of rear sight or if you want an M14SA w/ conventional rear sight. I have a ban era match that is all USGI and mainly TRW at that.Ģ.
Better yet - look for gently used Match with USGI parts. If you gotta have it now, buy a new SA Match and be ready to swap out any offending parts (like extractors) with USGI. Be willing to wait to get the exact rifle you want built by the exact smith you want. They actually make a fairly affordable Loaded model that could give you what you want right out the box:Ĭouple of thoughts for what they are worth to you:ġ. So you may be able to get what you want for cheaper. Haven't tried it yet with optics, but it's probably well under MOA. Just in case it helps, I've got an SA Loaded M1A, and with 175 SMKs, I can group 1.1 MOA 5 shotters with irons if I'm very careful, 1.5 MOA if I'm a bit less so. Does anyone know how long LRB in a sage would take to have shipped to an FFL? LRB is definatly an interest to me as well. I just want to have this build done within the next 60 days before I move across the country. Im not limiting myself to just two by any means. Select models are available in a 1-10, 1-11, and 1-12 twist. Each barrel is machined from 4150 CMV steel and features a parkerized finish. Minus the scope, im looking to spend 3500 on the rifle. Meticulously designed to match LRB Arms specifications, these Medium contour M14 barrels are available in a variety of lengths (18.5, 18.6, and 22) and finishes (non-chrome lined and chrome-lined). The most I need as far as range is 700 meters. If you are wanting a decent shooter M14 type (M1A), then $1400-$1500 will get you a new loaded model from SA Inc.Originally Posted By: ajb008My goal is a 1.5 MOA out of a M-14 DMR rifle. The CMP also sells Correct Grade SA's for $950 that look almost brand new. You can get a very nice Service Grade M1 from the CMP for $600.
However if I order either a LRB or Fulton, its going to cost me at. A very high asking price granted of 2500.
Fulton vs lrb m14 full#
The only way an M1 could be worth that price tag is if it's a full blown Match Grade (And even there that's a few hundred $$$ high.) or it's an all original WWII Collector Grade, but from your description there is no way it can be. Fairly new at this and need advise: I was about to order either a LRB or Fulton M14 when today i ran across what seemed to be a very clean M1 Springfield in 30.06. GAD!!! that's overpriced to the point of being ludicrous (sp?). However if I order either a LRB or Fulton, it's going to cost me at least that and probably closer to $3,000.ĭo I understand correctly that you were looking at an M1 Garand for $2500? It appeared all original.Ī very high asking price granted of $2500.
