Jun 28, 2020 · I have an M1A standard loaded and I’m thinking of trading for a SOCOM 16” but I’ve read mixed reviews on accuracy of the SOCOM. Some say your lucky to get 2” at 100yds and some say theirs is “extremely accurate”. Looking for some honest feedback with someone who has had both and your thoughts??

Aug 26, 2018 · No rhyme or reason. The SEI SOCOM gaslock sight base and the standard height M14 front sight with GI rear aperture works for most, but not all. SEI gas lock front sight base is taller than the SOCOM, so shorter than XS front sight is generally needed. ie..SEI base w/ standard 14 sight. The different SOCOM XS sights show there is some variance.

Feb 12, 2019 · M1A SOCOM, 16" barrel. I installed Grovtec QD flush cup sling mounts, one on left side of buttstock and o e on right side just in front of receiver. This allows me to run a 2 point sling as a lefty. Also installed a short picatinny rail section front left for a Surefire Scout light and on the bottom for a short vfg to be used more as a handstop.

Aug 25, 2020 · Hello everybody, I'm picking up an M1A socom 16 in 308 this weekend. I'm looking into reloading for it. I'm looking for some tips and tricks. I'm not looking for precision. 2-3 moa is fine with me. Here is what I plan to reload it with: Press : …

Mar 16, 2024 · The best solution I've envisioned for mounting a compact/micro optic on an M14/M1A is either a purpose-built receiver that has an integral Picatinny rail section milled into the top of the receiver heel (behind the rear sight), or a new-style mount that utilizes the rear sight base and extends rearward down and back along the top the receiver ...

Dec 7, 2024 · On the matter of CQB, if there is a LEO here, and uses a 308 caliber for his Swat team mission, then perhaps a case can be made for Socom 16 or the CQB M1A. I bought a Socom 16 as its a handy carbine and at that moment in time, the Scout M1A wasn't made yet.

I'm going to end up with an M1A SOCOM in the near future, and have decided that I am going to top it off with a 1-8.5x LPVO. I already have dedicated short and long range rifles, but not much in between - so this will be filling that role for me. I'm probably going to get a Sadlak scope mount...
