Any story behind the M1A?
I often wonder what would compel a person to give one of those up?
I got mine from a nephew who consigned his uncle's collection, it ss nice to know at least that the previous owner live by the code "from my cold dead hands", and so will I (at least with my M1A)
M1As aren't milsurp even if they use some original GI parts.
Could have been a forced consignment due to a LTC being yanked. Years ago, a homeowner in Lowell shot a junkie who was breaking into his house. After being charged with manslaughter, his LTC was yanked by Lowell PD and he had to put his entire (very valuable!) collection of firearms on consignment at AG Guns & Ammo in Lowell because he could no longer legally possess them.I bought it at Nicks in Palmer someone put it on consignment. That's all I know. Beautiful rifle and the price was right.
