Does anyone remember

The M1A-A1?  It's the bottom rifle in the ad show above.  the top rifle is the BM-59 Paratrooper model.

Springfield Armory took a BM-59 folding stock and put a cut down M1A into it.  I've always wanted one myself.  I've spoken to people who have owned them, before, and they all say the same thing.  There are easier ways to break your cheek bone than firing one of them.

But still, I"ve always liked how they looked.
