Listed here is an exceptional Pre Ban M1A Scout chambered in .308 Winchester, presented in unfired and excellent condition. As shown in the photos, this rifle features beautiful wood furniture, a scout rail for optics, and comes equipped with a camouflage-patterned sling. The M1A Scout combines the reliability and classic styling of the M1A platform with a compact, maneuverable barrel length—making it perfect for enthusiasts, collectors, or anyone looking for a rugged, iconic semi-auto rifle.
This firearm was lawfully possessed in Massachusetts at the time H4885 was enacted, and is fully compliant for transfer within the state. The rifle comes with one 10-round magazine, but if you’re looking for a little extra capacity, pre ban magazines are also available—just ask!
Everything functions exactly as it should. The photos show the exact rifle you’ll receive. While we have performed a full inspection and function check, we have not test fired this rifle.
If you have any questions about this Pre Ban M1A Scout or want to inquire about additional pre ban magazines, don’t hesitate to reach out to us here at Bay State Surplus!
