M1A

I love my Garand.

It stands to reason I should also love the M14 and its neutered cousin, the M1A.

I don't.

It just doesn't suit me at all.  It's nothing I can put into words either.  It really is a product improved Garand.

I have owned two now and kinda did the, "oh yeah, that's why I sold the first one" thing with the second one.

The first was a Polytech M14S.  I blamed its Chinese origin for why I disliked it.

The second was a Springfield.  Being from Illinois didn't make it better.

None of this is keeping me from thinking that, maybe, I should get another one.  Maybe from Fulton this time.  Who else makes one?

For the record, I would want it old school.  Walnut stocked not SAGE.  Iron sights not DMR.

    The M14 with walnut stock is on my "Guns I Want" list.
