Just picked this up yesterday

[DJTC45]

I just picked up this Springfield Armory SOCOM 16 at my FFL I made a trade deal for it off another forum I belong to. I'm thinking of a new project just got to figure out what. I am going to get a  wood stock for it, I just prefer them to the "plastic" ones. Here's one pic I took after I got it home it came with the orginal Box, web Sling all the paperwork, some manuals, and one  10rnd. mag and three 20rnd mags. I'll post some more once I figure out what I want to do.

Nice-I also prefer wood over the polymer any day-

I have wanted one of these for a very long time-

Keep an eye out in the classifieds it may show up after I get done with it.

I owned one of those briefly, it was a hoot! Somehow I sold it for more than I paid new.

Novel idea! Just don't think I'm going to jump on it! LOL!

I love them, but it's a lot like a revolver or a fancy 1911... i just don't think I'll ever pay for one.

I won't unless I hold off on lesser things LOL. I'd dearly love to have a high end SAA or 1911. And of course, this one after the wood is put to it.

Look on page 3 in the classifieds, it's listed with a Fajen Wood Stock that I had lying around.

Man that stock swapout does look real nice. Looks like a dream to shoot at the range. The M1A, or even the M14 for that matter, has always been something I want to get my hands on to try and/or maybe own.
