SA? Springfield Armory? Springfield Armory is no more, it was shut down. the Springfield Armory that sells guns is a privately held company that just took the name, nothing more, and what they sell aren't even M-14's, they can't be legally called that. the M-14's that are resurfacing have just been in storage since the vietnam era.
as for the SOCOM, eh, from what I have seen it's finnicky about surplus ammo, but it doesnt loose as much velocity as you might think.
