M14
I recently purchased a "loaded" M1A fro SAI, and it is one of the most beautiful rifles I own, and I own a lot of rifles. I have even considered, only for a moment, to sell my pre-ban HK-91 ($500 then) to pick up a Super Match or LRB. The trigger is pure joy, and that's the stock factory version. For those who think it is out of their price range, do this. Take the amount you think you can afford, and put it in an envelope. Find a picture of the M1A you want (visual reinforcement) and tape it to the front of the envelope, with the additional amount needed to purchase the rifle written below. Then EVERY paycheck put in $20 or $40 dollars. You would blow this on crap and beer anyway. You will soon reach your goal. The BEST things in life are worth waiting for. I do this whenever I want something that I don't have the immediate cash for. NO CREDIT CARDS. I don't use them. My philosophy has always been, buy the best and you only have to buy it once. These rifles, as has been said in this forum, are worth every penny, and more. I can't wait to get another one or two.
