If you want a "battle rifle" will a NM be a reasonable substitute?
Most military rifle shooters like to take their guns apart to clean and tinker.
SA says of the match rifles:
"The Standard M1A has been designed to be taken apart and put together easily. No force is needed if it is disassembled and assembled correctly. However, the frequency of
disassembly and assembly should be kept to a minimum. Constant disassembly causes excessive wear of the parts and leads to their early unserviceability and to inaccuracy of the rifle.
This is especially true with National Match and Super Match firearms, whose actions are glass bedded to their stocks. Unnecessary
removal promotes wear, sloppy fit, inaccuracy and defeats the purpose of the bedding. Please do not field strip your match firearm
unless it is absolutely necessary."
