I am not sure how he arrivced at that conclusion. That appears to fall into the data base window which is good. My new one is SN 0591xx which seems to put it into a July 1990 window. If I can help this out in any way I'd like to.
Gringo | Gringo, send a very polite e-mail to sales@springfield-armory.com requesting the build or ship date for the M1A serial numbers you provide them. Lexi or Brandy will answer you by e-mail in short order. That is not a dumb question. :D

Thanks to Bill Ricca's thread on The Firing Line Forun, I came across this thread. It's Sunday afternoon, so I can't contact SA right now, but looking at Different's 12/19/04 post, I can place my Standard M1A (s/n 0622xx) to the first half of 1991.
