Springfield armory m1a super match serial numbers

Just was wondering what the forum thought of the recent production Super Match's overall quality and reliability.

Thank you very much, young man.I'll keep the info. The desireable ones are all pre-ban and before 1993 or so when they ran out of USGI parts for most rifles besides Supermatch builds. M1A serial number born on date database - 200000 and up. 166761 Highest known serial number for a complete rifle built during the ten year federal Assault Weapons ban. 165XXX About 300 receivers in this serial number range have heels stamped AROMRY instead of ARMORY. 162708 Lowest observed serial number for the M1A SOCOM series. On one site there is an indication that it is a standard M1A, built perhaps around 1992. I was looking for a place to research the serial number, but didn't find anything definitive.
