#SundayGunday: Springfield Armory M1A SOCOM 16 CQB

by
posted on August 20, 2017

Springfield Armory has been offering semi-automatic versions of the legendary M14 since 1974. As a modernized descendent of that renowned rifle, there's no denying that the M1A SOCOM 16 was originally designed to protect you from two-legged predators—CQB actually stands for Close-Quarters Battle. But Americans have long hunted with firearms that found their origins in military service, and there's no reason to treat the M1A SOCOM 16 any differently—with the right accessories, it can be turned into a darn useful hunting rifle. Learn more about it with the video embedded above.
