okay gang, so I need some opinions...I wanted to see which rifle deal is better. two are std M1As one of them is a bush length rifle.
Rifle 1
std M1a
no gi parts
SAI 3rd gen scope mount
SAI scope rings
soft case
ten rd mag
$1000
Rifle 2
Std M1a
No GI parts
Smith Enterprise Scope Mount
Unitized gas cyliner (Army screw and glue method)
Sadlak NM TiN coated gas piston
Karsten's custom camo adjustable cheek piece
G.I. OD cotton web sling
M1A combo tool
M1A gas cylinder wrench
10 rd factory mag
$1250 shipped
Rifle 3
M1a Bush
TRW bolt
HRA trigger group
WIN op rod
Shimmed gas system
$1375+20 shipping
Things to consider, I live in CA and rifle one is already here, rifle two would require that I have the FH removed and a brake installed. Rifle three has GI parts. In all cases (1,2,3) I was going to have smith ent work on it and make it a smith setup with 18" barrel. So, all thing considered which would be the best deal for what I had in mind? All opinions welcomed.
