The Springfield M1A Socom 16 308 with FDE Composite Stock comes complete with essential parts as described: Springfield M1A Socom 16 308 With FDE Composite Stock The Springfield M1A Socom 16 308 with FDE Composite Stock represents a modern evolution of the legendary M14 platform, engineered for close-quarters performance without sacrificing the proven reliability of the M1A lineage. Chambered in .308 Winchester, this compact rifle delivers the stopping power and accuracy that serious shooters demand, housed in a Flat Dark Earth composite stock designed for durability in harsh conditions. As a direct descendant of the U.S. military standard-issue battle rifle, the Springfield M1A Socom 16 308 with FDE Composite Stock offers a balance of compact maneuverability and full-power cartridge performance that few other rifles can match. Overview The Socom 16 variant was developed specifically for tactical applications where a shorter barrel length is essential. With an 16.25-inch barrel and a reduced overall length, the Springfield M1A Socom 16 308 with FDE Composite Stock retains the robust operating system of the standard M1A while offering improved handling in confined spaces. The FDE composite stock provides a stable shooting platform, reduces overall weight, and resists environmental stressors such as moisture and temperature extremes. This rifle is built on the same forged receiver and machined steel components that have made the M1A platform a trusted choice for law enforcement, military, and civilian marksmen for decades. Features & Specs The Springfield M1A Socom 16 308 with FDE Composite Stock is equipped with a set of features optimized for utility and performance. The rifle includes a full-length Picatinny rail mounted on the receiver for optics, red dot sights, or night vision devices. The front sight is a military-style post, while the rear aperture sight provides a reliable backup aiming solution. The composite stock features integral sling swivel studs and a textured gripping surface for secure handling in adverse conditions. The magazine is a standard 10-round box magazine, with compatibility for M1A pattern magazines in higher capacities where permitted by local law.
