Combs too low for a scope otherwise ,nice

Beautiful I think. I'd rather have a low comb, with QD mount on the scope as I shoot the peeps just fine.

I have a cheek rest but thought it look better without it for the pic.

It looks okay but I have never heard of an M1A that shot well enough to bother scoping. I hope yours is the exception.

Maybe "hearing" is not as reliable a source as actually spoken with some of us with actual hands-on experience as to what an M-1A can do, especially a National Match...

Yes sir. Here are several I built for myself in Nation Match configuration. Also feature in Lee Emerson's M-14 book centerfold.
These are the 3 Color Desert Camo but the military had drop the Desert Camo which is no longer used after the Iraqi's and Afgan's repainted the whole entire middle eastern desert in a stenciled digital camo motif. By hand! Hence our military now dons a digital camo pattern. Rumor has it though they are repainting some of the out lying area's of Iraq Multicam.
