Default M1A is Here!

I picked it up this afternoon. It was sold as a used rifle, but I cannot tell that it has ever been fired! It looks brand spanking new! The Harris bipod was already mounted (backwards - but I have already fixed that).

I belive it is a standard-loaded with the stainless steel barrel.

Ammo arrived tomorrow, and this rifle will see some range time this week-end.

WOO-HOO!
