Springfield Loaded M1A Quality

Yea, I agree. I'd take about anything over an AR: M1 Garand, M1A, FAL, AK. I don't shoot competitively, so the desire to achieve sub-MOA accuracy doesn't concern me. It's just that, from everything I've read, if you plan to compete, you have a big advantage going into the competition with an AR platform.

I bought my SAI M1A Scout (18" barrel) January last year and paid $1500. After about 800 rounds the gas nut started to come loose. I check it frequently now. Clean it every couple trips to the range and keep it greased. The last couple times out my hand loads didn't want to eject the 1st round but functioned flawlessly after that. After about 3000 rounds it still shoots better than I do. I couldn't be happier.

Mine are early 80's and I have never had any problems.
