Springfield Armory M1A SOCOM 16 .308 Winchester/7.62x51mm NATO Semi Automatic Rifle 16″ Barrel 10 Rounds Black Composite Stock

This 16″ version of the venerable M1A can be an effective close quarters battle rifle or just a great “ranch gun.” This rifle has the minimum length barrel for a rifle under federal law. It has a proprietary muzzle brake, XS tritium front sight and a forward-mounted scope base that is ideal for electronic sights or other accessories.

The world of tactical rifles forever changed in 2004 when Springfield Armory introduced the M1A SOCOM 16. 7.62NATO power in a package this small was previously unthinkable. Shooters who need a compact rifle no longer have to settle for a lesser caliber, although they can expect less felt recoil and less muzzle rise, thanks to the SOCOM 16?s unique design.
