Product Overview
The Springfield Armory M1A Scout Squad integrates the established power and reliability of the M1A platform with an optimized design for rapid handling and enhanced sight acquisition. This configuration prioritizes operational utility in varied field conditions, delivering a robust semi-automatic rifle capable of precise engagements. The Scout Squad variant is engineered for the discerning user who requires a resilient and adaptable firearm for demanding environments.
Key Features
Integrated Optics Mounting Solution
A forward-mounted Picatinny rail is meticulously integrated into the steel receiver. This system facilitates the secure attachment of extended eye relief optics, optimizing the platform for rapid target acquisition and situational awareness without interfering with spent casing ejection or traditional iron sight use. The rail is finished with a durable Black Parkerization, ensuring corrosion resistance and consistent aesthetic integration.
Precision Trigger System
This rifle incorporates a two-stage military-specification trigger. This design provides a predictable take-up, followed by a crisp break, enabling enhanced control and contributing to shot consistency. The two-stage mechanism is a critical element for precision shot placement, especially under dynamic conditions.
Optimized Ergonomics and Handling
The 18-inch carbon steel barrel significantly reduces the rifle’s overall length, enhancing maneuverability and quick deployment. This abbreviated profile mitigates snagging and improves balance, making the rifle agile in confined spaces or during rapid transitions. The fixed walnut stock provides a stable and traditional interface, promoting consistent cheek weld and recoil management.
Robust Construction and Finish
The M1A Scout Squad is constructed with a Black Parkerized carbon steel barrel, known for its durability and resistance to environmental stressors. The steel receiver, also Black Parkerized, provides a strong foundation for the operating system, ensuring long-term reliability and structural integrity under sustained use. This finish combination offers proven corrosion protection.
Configurable Sighting System
An aperture-style rear sight, fully adjustable for both windage and elevation, is standard. This system allows for precise zeroing and field adjustments, accommodating varying distances and environmental factors. Its robust design ensures durability and repeatable performance, complementing the forward optics mount for redundant sighting capabilities.
