Springfield M1A Loaded .308 with Black Composite Stock (New York Compliant)

If you have been searching for a semi-automatic rifle that combines classic American design with modern reliability, the Springfield M1A Loaded .308 with Black Composite Stock (New York Compliant) deserves a close look. This rifle retains the battle-proven M14 action but is configured specifically to meet New York state regulations, making it a practical choice for shooters in restrictive jurisdictions. Chambered in .308 Winchester, it delivers the stopping power and accuracy that serious shooters expect from a full-power cartridge, all wrapped in a lightweight, weather-resistant black composite stock.

Overview

The springfield m1a loaded 308 with black composite stock (new york compliant) is a purpose-built variant of the iconic M1A platform. It starts with a 22-inch, carbon steel barrel with a 1:10 twist rate, optimized for standard .308 loads. The receiver is forged from 8620 alloy steel and features a National Match front sight paired with a fully adjustable rear aperture sight. What sets this model apart is its compliance with New York’s SAFE Act, featuring a pinned and welded muzzle brake and a fixed 10-round magazine. The black composite stock reduces overall weight by about a pound compared to traditional walnut, while still maintaining the classic M1A ergonomics you expect. This is a factory-built rifle, not a conversion, so you get the same Springfield Armory warranty and quality control as any other M1A in the lineup.
