Sprgfld M1a Ldd 308 Bl Syn 10rd Ca

The Springfield M1A Loaded in .308 Winchester (10-round California-compliant magazine) represents a refinement of the proven M1A platform, built for shooters who demand both accuracy and reliability. The Loaded series bridges the gap between standard mil-spec configuration and full competition-grade builds by pairing a medium-weight premium air-gauged National Match barrel with a finely-tuned trigger assembly that breaks cleanly at 4.5–5 pounds—a substantial improvement over issue-grade pull weights that degrade shot placement under sustained fire.

The National Match front sight blade and non-hooded National Match rear aperture deliver a precision sight picture optimized for 100-yard zero and distance shooting. The air-gauged barrel—hand-selected and inspected for concentricity—delivers velocity consistency and shot-to-shot repeatability essential for accurate fire at extended range. At 14.69 pounds loaded and 46 inches overall, this rifle maintains the ergonomic familiarity of the M1A platform while the synthetic stock resists weather degradation during field operations. The 10-round magazine configuration meets California legal requirements while preserving full M1A compatibility.

This configuration serves law enforcement trainers, serious precision rifle competitors, and .308 Winchester shooters seeking a platform that rewards fundamental marksmanship without requiring extensive customization. The M1A Loaded .308 excels in scenarios where sub-MOA accuracy matters—squad-designated marksman roles, patrol rifle courses, and long-range qualification. Operators familiar with the M14 platform recognize the M1A's design lineage and ergonomic consistency across firearm platforms within multi-gun organizations.
