Out of production springfield Armory Inc models

[jonc]

Here is a quote from wikipedia regarding different firearms that springfield armory inc has sold. "Previously the company has offered clones of the M1 Garand rifles, Beretta BM59, FN FAL, HK 91, and AR-15."
I'm trying to find out all the rifle models that they have sold. I know they made the m-6 scout which is a survival rifle, and i have heard of the SAR-8, which I think is a copy of the HK 91. So does anybody have a picture of any models that they no longer sell? Especially the BM59 and AR-15

I've seen someone here (or maybe at TFL) post a pic of the BM59. I've never seen one first hand. I would like to own one of the FALs though.

ETA:

Saturno V posted a BM59 here. Post #24.

I have a SAR-48 FAL. It's made on a Brazilian receiver with metric parts.

I don't know how many of their AR15 clones ever made it out of the factory. IIRC they were sued by Colt in 82 or 83 because Colt's patent hadn't expired yet. I remember seeing their ads in Shotgun News and I even ordered one through my local FFL, but it was never delivered.

Wow that long ago! That was a number of years before I was even born

There is also two M-1A models they no longer make.
The M-1A Bush (18" barrel & folding stock) and the M-1A Tanker (18" barrel).
They were both made during the 1980s.
