I’d buy one if I weren’t so old.
$2K seems a little steep, though.

The Springfield M1A MSRP is around $1800 for a brand new one with a warantee. I suppose if I was a vet that had served with one, or possibly as a potential investment counting on appreciation over time, I might want some original iron, but if I’m buying it as a shooter, I’m going with the newer build.

I remember getting an M-1 carbine for $30.00 It was beat up like it went through three wars but it worked.

M-14 for $2K? No. It’s kind of a wall trophy but you want to hump that thing for old times sake? Sure.

Same here, you have no idea how many rounds have been fired through than thing. It could have need in service for more than 20 years.
