The modern American enthusiasm for firearms usually distills down to three different discrete attributes — practicality, appeal and nostalgia. Most of us select our working guns based upon their effectiveness as defensive tools. First and foremost, if I might conceivably use this thing to defend my family, it has to run perfectly and shoot straight...
The M1A Tanker packs the unrivaled reliability and downrange horsepower of the classic government-issue M14 into a semi-auto-only package that is a full 7″ shorter and 10 oz. lighter than the standard G.I. rifle.

The M1A Tanker is not for everyone. Some folks could never make practical use of the Tanker’s range and power. Springfield Armory has an entire stable of 5.56mm rifles just standing by should that be the case. Others are just not cool enough to rock a rifle this awesome. To those of my brethren take heart, keep working at it and someday you could y...
