Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel represents a precision evolution of the classic M14 platform. Chambered in .308 Winchester, this rifle is engineered for shooters who demand sub-MOA accuracy from a gas-operated semi-automatic system. Built on Springfield Armory’s forged receiver and fitted with a premium Douglas barrel, the M21 Long Range Match delivers consistent performance at extended distances without sacrificing the reliability that defines the M1A lineage. For the serious marksman or law enforcement precision shooter, this is a ready-to-compete platform that requires no aftermarket barrel upgrades.

Overview

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is a factory-built precision rifle that merges the proven M1A operating system with match-grade components. The Douglas barrel, known for its tight tolerances and superior rifling, is hand-fitted to the action and fully bedded in a synthetic stock designed for stability. The rifle includes a National Match front sight, a hooded aperture rear sight, and a Picatinny rail for optical mounting. Each rifle is function-tested at the factory to ensure reliability with match ammunition. This is not a modified service rifle; it is a dedicated long-range tool built from the ground up for accuracy.
