M1A?

    I was looking at a used springfield post ban. The dealer said it's a standard model. However it has the NM front sight. I was wondering if this was what they call the loaded standard. If this is a loaded standard, could someone tell me any more specific marking it would have. Like would the barrel be marked or the trigger group. Thanks

    I had real good luck with calling customer service at Springfield, when researching one of their pistols a while back. The lady I talked to was quite helpful, when I described the markings and gave her the serial number.
    You got nothing to lose. Do a Google search and get Springfields number, give them a holler.

    A "loaded" M1A would have a new walnut stock, Medium national match barrel (stainless steel or carbon- depending on the package and cost), NM flash suppressor, NM trigger group, NM front and rear sights (no hood on the rear) and they used to include a coupon allowing you to purchase accessories at a discount. I don't know if that program is still in effect. The rifles themselves are not marked "loaded" so you'd have to check the box or the original paper work. A standard model M1A with a NM front sight is simply a standard rifle which had the NM blade added- an easy change.
