Titleist Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 I think I'll follow up my AK74SU review with the TM M14, so I'll raise my hand. I need to do one for the Prime Sig 226 kit as well. Link to post Share on other sites

Tiskaite Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Okay, you do that! This is gonna be an expensive month for me Link to post Share on other sites
FarEast Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 OK to answer a few more questions: No the bolt can not be locked in the back position. But don't worry as the Hop-UP dial is located in the magwell which is easily got to. The gears of the M14 CAN NOT be changed, meaning that they are exclusive to the TM M14, this is not to say SYSTEMA will not make custom gears for it at a later date. The M14 takes a large battery which is easily got to through the stock. Link to post Share on other sites

Magsz Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Whats different about the gears? Link to post Share on other sites

Tripod Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Whats different about the gears? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They could be smaller/larger/thicker than other gears in order to accomidate the new gearbox. There really isn't very much room for TM to work with in the m14, and pictures of the gearbox do give me the impression that it's a little longer but shorter than other gearboxes. Plus, we can't be for sure that the gears are different. And on top of that, stock gears aren't as weak as people claim they are. I've seen em run on pretty high FPS.

Tripod Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 He was saying damn because he wanted the bolt to lock open. It's just a cool feature to have. It's a shame that it doesn't. Nothing that would make me not buy the gun though. Link to post Share on other sites
