A M1A is one of the best newbie to mid game player options (level 10-25) at the moment (and a high end modded m1a is a very good option for high end players):
- Stock M1A about 40-55k on the Flea Market
- Peacekeeper lvl 3 – 8x USB Adapter for one M1A. Thats about 16-32k, depending on flea market prices!
- Put a Arms #18 Mount with a Scope/Sight of your choice on that beast!
- Use M80 and kill everyone. Its perfect against C4, its (very) good against C5 and decent vs. C6.
- The 30 Round M14 Mags are cheap.
- Mix that with a decent loadout (6b47, 6b13) and you are running a deadly loadout which can kill even a high geared dude
- Its a highly modable gun which makes it a amazing choice from early to late game
Currently the price would be about 70k with a pk-06; about 100k with a scope like the valday. If you use the peacekeeper trade, it would be about 20k cheaper.
Have fun!
