Back-In-the-Day when USGI parts were readily available the sights were marked NM, and had finer adjustment clicks than the standards on the adjustment knobs.
The Receivers were stamped NM, as well as the barrels like the CM ones, and if they were stainless steel that was another indicator of the NM barrel.
NM triggers were typically worked-on standards with a better trigger pull.
Other than closely looking for stampings/marks, you'd have to check with SA about all those specs.

Looking at the SA web site, it looks like only the Precision Adjustable Stock models get the rail.

The M1A™ Loaded is available in versions equipped with a Precision Adjustable Stock, which takes the performance capabilities of the rifle to the next level. With a lower Picatinny rail strip, integrated QD slots, an enlarged and funneled mag well, adjustable cheek comb and much more, this stock enhances the capabilities of an already impressive rifle.
On the Bass Pro site it would be these models-

o this is an error on Basspro’s website? I based my purchase on this description(picatinny rail).
Nope. Bought the traditional M1A loaded. Looks like their product description is incorrect

I think that Basspro description of your rifle got the picture of the walnut furniture M1a mixed up with a description of a Loaded M1a with the Archangel stock (see one linked below from SA website). I have the 6.5cm Desert Tan FDE version of the Archangel stock w/ picatinny rail underneath and like it very much. The stock alone can be bought separately at several online places (one such linked below), for about $285.
