Armscorp M1A Receiver
I purchased an Armscorp receiver in 1989 and had it built into a match rifle by Fulton Armory. I've shot it very little but have always wondered how it compares with SA and other M1A receivers ? It has all GI parts and barrel and what little shooting I have done with it has been okay.

I've heard good things about the Armscorp receiver.

And you can't argue with a build by Fulton Armory - that's top notch.

wondering about receivers ?
I am interested in possibly building a m1a1. I have looked on internet and shotgun news but been unable to find listings for a receiver for sale . I realise its got to go to ffl holder - ok. thought if I could spread the cost of the build over a year or so buying peice by peice it might ease the sticker shock. Anyone got any places I should try to find one . Thanks for any help

The new SEI M14 Barstock Receiver should be available in about 5 weeks.
All of my M14s are built on Poly Tech and Norinco receivers, but I hope to
get myself one of these new SEI receivers...

Fulton's are advertising receivers.

Definitely not the cheapest but you sometimes have to pay for quality. I have one of their rifles and no complaints whatsoever, it shoots much better than I do.
