This deactivated M1A (Springfield Armory), fitted with a modern Archangel stock, combines classic American battle-rifle heritage with contemporary ergonomic styling.

Product Overview

The M1A — the civilian counterpart of the M14 — is famed for its robust construction and historic military lineage. Originally chambered in 7.62×51mm NATO, the M1A paired accurate semi-automatic performance with battlefield reliability. This deactivated example retains the model’s distinctive receiver, charging handle and external profile, now enhanced by a tactical Archangel stock that improves carry, sight height and handling while creating a contemporary aesthetic.
