Before Springfield Armory introduced the M1A SOCOM 16 in 2004, 7.62 NATO power in a package this small was previously unthinkable. Shooters who need a compact rifle no longer have to settle for a lesser caliber, although they can expect less felt recoil and less muzzle rise, thanks to the SOCOM 16's unique design. The SOCOM 16 starts with a specially-engineered 16" Parkerized carbon steel barrel that is mated to the gas system with a proprietary muzzle brake. The muzzle brake reduces felt recoil and keeps muzzle rise so flat that follow-up shots have never been so easy. The enlarged ghost ring aperture rear sight and XS Tritium Insert in the front sight give you the quick target acquisition capability you want and need under any conditions. If your mission calls for optics, the SOCOM 16 features Springfield Armory's forward scout-style Picatinny mount. Of course, the SOCOM 16 also has the legendary performance and reliability that M1A shooters have come to love and expect. If your mission requirements call for a compact tactical rifle, but won't let you sacrifice power, you need the SOCOM 16.

Wanted a SOCOM for a while. I have not shot it. It's more of a collection rifle for me.

As my first .308/7.62 rifle, I thought the SOCOM 16 on its classic M14 platform was a natural choice. A perfect blend of new and old. Looks and feels robust and is sweet to shoot with a smooth trigger pull and relatively low recoil, no malfunctions so far. The M1A in any of its variants makes a fine addition to any collection.

Nothing much to review? The gun and timely delivery were on point! Love my M1A SOCOM. Sorry not to say more, however, I have to adorn her :) for battle readiness and get her squared away for the ball.

This rifle was everything I hoped it would be- and then some. Buds took my trade in and that worked out very well. Shipped new gun out rapidly. Very impressed by Buds service and on the ball people. Went to the range with it and performed flawlessly. Shot about 3-4 inches at 100 yds. That’s with the stock peep sights ( excellent by the way ) and my older eyes. Hard for me to index, not the guns fault. I highly recommend this rifle to any and all who are seeking a powerful, compact semi auto .308. This is my ultimate bug out ( last thing I’d want to do ) rifle. It can tackle any task. Self defense, take down larger game, blow thru cars, etc. The muzzle device holds down recoil very well. Blast is fairly substantial but hey you can’t have everything.

Love this rifle! Sights were right on target out of the box. Shoots great and can't wait to take it moose hunting in the bush! As always Bud's did a great job from the get go.

My husband loves his Socom 16. I was suprised that I enjoyed it and how easy it was on recoil. I recommend this for anyone who may be considering a 308 in any model. My husband said if anyone is trying to choose between an AR 10 or Socom 16....the Socom would win every time.

This is my rifle. I removed the picatinny rail and replaced the handguard. Very awesome rifle in a small package.

Amazing! The whole experience. First, Buds came through in their typical top notch service. Great price, excellent customer service, fast shipping. Now on to the rifle. Flawless in every way. The fit and finish are top quality. Runs like a champ. Cleaned and lubed just before first range session, as with any new firearm. Once it came out of the case everyone wanted to shoot it! And what a crowd pleaser. The first day out saw 400 rounds without a hiccup, and the muzzle break really recudes the recoil for this short beast. To some it up this rifle is fantastic!

MY SPRINGFIELD SOCOM 16 ARRIVED IN A GOOD LOOKING RIFLE SCABBARD. IT'S ALL I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE...TOOK IT OUT TO THE RANGE AND AT 100 YARDS OFF HAND SHE SHOT IRON-SIGHTS RIGHT ON THE MONEY! I'M VERY PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASE.

I was very impressed with the rifle and the excellent customer service at Buds. My only complaint is the safety was extremely stiff and yes I know the rifle needs to be cocked to engage the safety.
