Ok so I need a little help with a project. There is a man at my church that was a Marine in Vietnam, he was a unit marksman and is proud to say that when everyone else used the m16 he was still hauling around his M14. He has been a great friend helped me and my family in so many ways and has taught me so much. I've asked him why he doesn't just buy an M1A if he likes them so much and he always says his wife won't let him. Me and my family are moving away to take care of family and I'd like to buy him a M1A and give it to him as a gift. I don't want to just buy him a base M1A, I want to set it up like he had it Vietnam. So can any of you history guys tell me what scope, sling, rings ect he would have used. I don't want to even give him a clue as to what I'm doing. This is the least I can do for a man that has done so much for me, my family, and our country. I'm betting I'll spend anywhere from 2-3k on this project. Is that an accurate guess? Thanks in advance.
