LOA Raw Steel Tube-?

Was looking on Craig's list for some tubing and came across this. Can anyone tell me what the LOA stands for?
Thanks,

Length overall? It's used that way in boating.

Thanks,
Could be? I am thinking about buying some, they have 1inch dia 16 gauge 38inch long pieces for one dollar each. If they are just plain steel they would be great for practicing on.

I dont know what your wanting to practice, but 1" 16ga tube isnt good for much at all.

depends on what you want to weld I guess.
I will be welding alot of body panels and other car related stuff, nothing over 1/4 inch, and mainly if not totally 1/8 inch and smaller.
