There's one in the classifieds right now (not sure if Massachusetts,) and I have one that will be up for sale soon.

Unfortunately, the FAL is on Healeys hit list.

It just takes forever waiting for the 700 action to cycle.

M1 Garand in .308.

I vote FAL but only because I have one I built from an STG-58 and Imbel parts pile. Accurate as hell, so much fun to shoot. Built it years before Healey's bullshit.

SCAR 17?

+1 for the Scar 17s. It's the best semi-auto .308 out there in my somewhat limited opinion. I have an M1A Scout Squad that I don't care for at all. It never leaves the safe.

sell it

BAR?

Well, legally your limited in choices here in MA.
Or Massify a FN SCAR 17..

You could shell out the extra cash for a preban rifle...

The M1A is a cheap choice for a new rifle.

+1.

What don't you like about it?

About 2 weeks ago I received my .308 Special Garand from the CMP. It's absolutely gorgeous and a pleasure to shoot. I look forward to hopefully taking a deer with it in VT in the fall.

The cheapest way to go right now would be to get one of the C308s from Century via Classic Firearms (about $500). A PTR is a better option for more $$$, but still on the cheaper side of MA compliance. In that price range, the M1A is a competitor and certainly much better looking. Buy or build an AR-10 if you want accuracy. If you've got the cash, there's not much reason to avoid the Scar.

Rem with a good stock.

 

[Hustler One]

I have a LMT MWS in CT for sale if you're interested. Find a dealer who will transfer it and massify for you. I can ship next week.

 

[Cape Gun Works]

C308 us available and a very reasonable price. Right around 600

I built an AR10 from Palmetto for $800. It shoots better than I can shoot it. Exact same functionality as the AR15/M16 family. Just bigger magazines and a little more kick to it, about the same as my M1A. The two rifles weighed within a couple oz of each other, but I like the balance of the AR with the weight closer to my body vs the M1A with the weight further out.
