Our Assessment: This Armscorp M14 National Match M1A is a precision-built civilian version of the legendary U.S. M14 rifle, chambered in .308 Winchester with a 22-inch National Match barrel. Designed for target shooting and competition, this rifle is equipped with National Match iron sights, including an “NM” marked front blade and a fully adjustable hooded rear aperture offering precise 1/2-MOA windage and elevation adjustments. A 7-inch Picatinny rail mounted in the scout position allows for the easy installation of a long-eye-relief optic. Built on the proven M14 operating system, the rifle delivers the reliability and accuracy that have made the platform a favorite among competitive shooters for decades.
The rifle is stocked in an attractive laminated wood stock with a matching laminated handguard and a durable hard rubber butt pad, giving it the classic appearance of the M14 while offering improved stability over traditional walnut. The action has been glass bedded and fitted with a rear-lugged pillar, significantly increasing rigidity between the receiver and stock to enhance consistency and accuracy. These National Match features, combined with the scout optics rail and precision iron sighting system, make this Armscorp M14 an outstanding example of a competition-oriented M1A that remains equally at home on the firing line or in the hands of any enthusiast who appreciates the enduring appeal of the M14 platform.
