Springfield M1a Super Match Prices
From M14 Rifle History and Development Second Edition (04/16/06 draft):
“Springfield Armory, Inc. and Glenn Nelson
Oct 19, 2012 My father has a all original Springfield M1A serial number 10xxx. I am trying to pry it from his safe queen collection. He is a collector, I am a shooter. Mine was converted to a super match by Gene Barnett (Barnett Barrels) when he was an Armor for the All Guard team and I was shooting for the AK NG. I really don't care what its worth, I'm. Mar 17, 2010 M1A serial number lookups for mfr date I can't find anything in the search function and the SA site does not appear to have any link or other info to this end. Thanks in advance.
Glenn Nelson joined the U. S. Army in 1954 and became a member of its shooting team in 1961. He earned Distinguished Rifleman status in 1962 as well. He remained on the Army shooting team until late 1965 when he accepted an offer to become a match armorer. He completed the U. S. Army match armorer school at Rock Island Arsenal then began building M14 rifles for competition as part of the USAMTU at Fort Benning. Mr. Nelson went on to serve in Viet Nam. He retired from the U. S. Army in 1975. Bob Reese hired Glenn Nelson to establish a shop that could build competition grade M1A rifles for Springfield Armory, Inc.
Mr. Nelson began building Ultra Match M1 Garand and National Match and Super Match M1A rifles from his home. However, by 1987 the business had grown such that the custom rifle shop occupied 5,000 square feet of building space. Over the years he put together a first rate staff of former AMTU match armorers and former Army team shooters. Mr. Nelson and his staff kept up with and implemented the latest accurizing techniques used by the AMTU as time went on. Mr. Nelson no longer builds competition rifles for Springfield Armory, Inc but did so until at least 1993.
The custom Super Match M1A rifles were fitted with either Douglas or Hart heavyweight barrels. These heavyweight barrels were available in 1:10, 1:11, or 1:12 twist rates. Mr. Nelson required the air-gauged and stress-relieved barrel blanks supplied to him have a bore diameter between 0.2999 ” and 0.3004 ” and a groove diameter between 0.3079 ” and 0.3084 ”. The heavyweight barrel blanks were supplied with rifling obviously, but the rest of the machining was done by Mr. Nelson or his employees. National Match medium weight barrels were supplied by Springfield Armory, Inc. to Mr. Nelson already for installation by other suppliers. The operating rod guides were soldered on to the barrels. For individual customers, Mr. Nelson machined hand picked medium weight and heavyweight Douglas Premium barrel blanks and installed them in rifle builds unless the customer specified otherwise.
To give the reader an idea of what is possible with the M14 rifle and a talented armorer, the following will illustrate the point. In April 1986, Glenn Nelson built a Super Match M1A rifle from stripped receiver serial number 033187. The build included all TRW parts and a National Match rear sight. After final assembly, this rifle was tested on amachine rest. It grouped fourteen shots under the size of a nickel at 200 yards with 168 grain Sierra bullets. The test target was presented to the buyer, a member of the Second Army Shooting Team.

Mr. Nelson and his staff used the same Springfield Armory, Inc. M1A receivers used on standard models to create state-of-the-art competition rifles. They performed the match conditioning work and 90 % of the assembly on the receivers sent to the Nelson shop in Columbus, GA by Springfield Armory, Inc. Mr. Nelson purchased TRW bolts for building all the National Match and Super Match M1A rifles in his shop. Headspace on these rifles was kept between 1.631 ” and 1.632 ”. The M1A rifles dressed in wood stocks were coated several times with raw linseed oil. The almost-complete rifles were shipped back to Springfield Armory, Inc. for final assembly, test firing,packaging and shipping. Final assembly in Geneseo, IL included installation of the front and rear sights, operating rods, hand guards and slings.”

Senior Member Location: APOLLO, PA | FOR SALE: SA M1A Pre-Ban Super Match (Rear Lug) Any Takers? I have a SA M1A Pre-Ban Super Match in my safe that I don't shoot. It is an early '94' which means it has a rear lug. All Parts are U.S.G.I. except the barrel which is SA. When I bought the rifle years ago from a gentleman there was a defect in the barrel and wasn't shot much and the gentleman sent it back to SA and they put a brand new Super Match barrel on it. Since I've had it with a new barrel I put appraox. 20 rounds threw it. So this rifle is dam near brand new. I shoot my SA Standard rifle with cheep ammo anymore so I don't need the Super Match. One U.S.G.I mag will come with the rifle. I'm asking $1,820.00 shipped to your FFL. Hell I'll throw in three 30 round USA mags with the deal (I know they are crape, but they are free). I'll even throw in 5 more 20 round aftermarket mags (These ones work great: never a malfunction and cost $25.00 each 4 years ago). For an extra $100.00 I can sell a hard case that I cut the foam to fit rifle and mags. I really don't believe I'm asking nearly as much as some on this board for a Pre-Ban Super Match. I will be loosing money. But I Really need a good Elliptical Fitness Trainer to get my butt back into shape. They aren't cheep either. So this rifle got to go. |
