Armscorp M14 Serial Numbers
I did exactly the same as you. I bought a nice TRW parts kit and hadClint McKee assemble it on an Armscorp receiver that I bought. At that time (mid '90s) Fulton Armory was building on SA receivers. Clint was a bit apprehensive about building on an Armscorp receiver but in the end he had no problems with it and the gun turned out to be a great shooter (looks fantastic too, FA did an exceptional job parking and refinishing the furniture). It would be one of the last guns in the safe if I was forced to sell off my collection.Later, Clint went to Armscorp (both Armscorp and Fulton Armory are local to the Baltimore area) and contracted them to build receivers for FA but with mods that Clint requested.

So there are differences between Armscorp and FA marked receivers. I have a friend who bought a FA M1A built on their receiver and he's very happy with it. No problems or issues to speak of. I've heard all sorts of stories about Springfield Armory, running the gamut from good to bad.
Can't speak directly to their build quality as I have no experience with their M1A. FWIW, I collected parts for over a Year to Do my M-14/MIA Build.The Parts were Expensive as everyone knows and another Grand for an LRB receiver was NOT in the Budget. Honestly even if it was I don't know that I would make that Jump??NOT saying they aren't GREAT receivers BUT IMHO the Average (OR Above) Shooter will never realize much of the virtues it may give.Here she is W/BARREL still in the White at MAGNUM GUNSMITHING in Ohio. She has had one range session and should have another this week before she gets Parked and sent Home to me.It AINT an LRB, BUT I'm pretty happy with it so far. You did a great job on the stock Mike,and i know what you mean about the 'pop' to the wood.That's generally referred to as a 'Flame' pattern in the grain. Basically the light reflects a pattern from the grain that changes with the movement of the head or wood.The same grain pattern can turn from light to dark by moving the head 6 inches.I had a really nice 'flamed' Garand stock, i wish i still had it!Then again, i wish i had a really nice M1A too! Hehe.Here's an old pic of it amongst his friends.usrifle.
