Anyone have m1a/m14 in Sage EBR chassis?

How do you like it? My birthday is next week and a m1a for a really good price fell in my lap. So really concerning pick it up vs building a AR-10. Just seeing if any members has one.

I don't own one, but we built one for a customer when I worked at the gun store.

It's a lot heavier than I thought it would be and the balance felt off to me. But that is of course very subjective.

Yup, Looking around 13-15 pounds. My comp rifle for PRS is 13.5

What store did you work at?

Patriot Shooting Sports in Youngsville (north of Raleigh). Great dudes.

I had one and hated it. It looked cool as crap. Then you carry it hog hunting and it's heavy, and feels like you have a 4x4 slung to you.

I had a SOCOM 16 in it. I sold it during the scare, but I'd not put another M1a in that stock. I did like the urban camo... And hard to beat a sexy, nice grained walnut.

I loved the SOCOM 16, and would love to have another, or a Scout. My go to rifle is an AR 10 now. Much more modular too.

Sexy walnut changes POI due to climate

There is one to http://www.m14.ca/m14m1a-blackfeather-rs.html

You don't really get to shoot them, do you? I thought they just needed to look pretty to make your friends jealous. Maybe I am doing it wrong. HAHAHAHA

 

[Djstorm100]

haha, everything I own I shoot. If I don't shoot it, I don't keep it. lol

If I were buying a modern stock it would definitely be the Blackfeather. The Sage is ancient technology by this point and just too freakin' heavy. But I'm old school, so I decided to stick with wood and fiberglass.
