I've had a M1a on my "wanted list" for quite some time. I have a buddy who bought a M1a Loaded last fall before the election and never fired it. I was only just getting over the sticker shock of the $1100-$1300 for a standard before fall '08 hit and the prices went up. My buddy wants to sell this for what he paid including tax which was $1700. I would pass and wait some more, but they don't seem to be getting any cheaper (quite the opposite actually), and I'm not getting anywhere NOT owning one yet. I like a good deal, and he just came back at me with what is probably a good offer; the M1a Loaded AND a Vltor mod stock for it (worth about $400 used) all for $1700. I'm afraid at these prices I might be just admiring it in the corner with nothing left to feed it.
1) this is a good deal, right?
2) is the "Loaded" worth all the extra coin over the "Standard".
3) What are the downsides to going with the higher end M1a's?
4) does anyone have one of these modstock? Is there a downside to them?
