Springfield M1A Loaded .308 With Black Composite Stock (New York Compliant)

The Springfield M1A Loaded .308 with Black Composite Stock (New York Compliant) represents a carefully engineered variant of the iconic M14 platform, tailored specifically for lawful ownership within New York state regulatory frameworks. This semi-automatic rifle combines the proven reliability of the M1A action with a fixed, non-threaded barrel and a pinned muzzle device to meet state compliance standards without sacrificing the accuracy and durability that have defined the Springfield Armory lineage. Chambered in .308 Winchester (7.62x51mm NATO), this rifle delivers the long-range precision and terminal ballistics required for competition, hunting, and defensive applications.

Overview

The Springfield M1A Loaded .308 with Black Composite Stock (New York Compliant) is a factory-direct solution for shooters who demand the classic M1A battle rifle platform but require compliance with New York state firearms regulations. Built on a forged receiver machined from 8620 steel, this rifle features a 22-inch carbon steel barrel with a 1:11 twist rate, optimized for stabilizing both 147-grain military surplus and 168-grain match-grade ammunition. The NY-compliant configuration includes a permanently attached muzzle brake that brings overall barrel length to 22 inches, a fixed stock, and a 10-round magazine to comply with capacity restrictions. The black composite stock reduces weight by approximately 1.5 pounds compared to traditional walnut stocks while providing enhanced resistance to moisture and temperature extremes.

Features and Specs

Every component of the Springfield M1A Loaded .308 with Black Composite Stock (New York Compliant) is selected for functional performance. The National Match front sight with a .062-inch blade and the fully adjustable National Match rear sight allow precise windage and elevation adjustments out to 800 meters. The two-stage target trigger breaks cleanly at 4.5 to 5.0 pounds after a short take-up, facilitating accurate shot placement. The black composite stock incorporates a glass-reinforced nylon structure with an integral bedding block that improves receiver-to-stock fit and free-floats the barrel for consistent harmonics.
