sturgis Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 cheers guys, i guys TM aftermarket barrels will fit then ! i just checked my kart, and it seems the flashhider is CW (turning left to loosen it while looking into the barrel), wich is odd, as i recal TM's to be CCW? my P90 flashhider wouldn't for example, can someone confirm their TM to be CCW aswell?

fishsquatch Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 can anyone suggest a 3-point sling for an M14 (specifically the SOCOM/SOC16)? i've been looking at the ones for the M16, and they look like they would work, but i just wanna make sure. thanks. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They have a nice looking 3-pt sling here on sale (looks just like the specter): http://store.botachtactical.com/cqbsopspecop.html I use this one and it's a quality sling: http://www.stubbygear.com/product.asp?productid=40206 This one works OK, but the straps are a little stiff and I prefer the butt mounts above: http://store.theslingshop.com/ezsling2.html - This should work as well: http://www.slingsonly.com/m16_tactical_sling.shtml Link to post Share on other sites

sturgis Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 (edited) TM's M14 are 14mm -/CCW. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> cheers ! i ended up ordering an entire TM barrel assemblage to get the flashhider, along with a shorter PDI barrel, prometheus tightbore, deepfire metal nozzle and brown heatshield. this should give it abit more accuracy edit: here's a crappy cameraphone picture Edited December 13, 2006 by sturgis Link to post Share on other sites
tmas Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Well I officially re-joined the M14 Brotherhood tonight. But I've got 2 really, really stupid questions. 1)How in the hell do you put the flash hider back on? (I screwed the orange one off and want to put the regular one on); 2) I've got a G&P scope mount, do I have to somehow take off the little piece in front of the rear sight to be able to slide the scope mount on? If so, do I just have to use brute force? Sorry for the dumb questions, but I don't want to screw anything up, plus I'm tired as all hell. Link to post Share on other sites

evansy Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 My new fave gun TM M14 SOCOM I've got a question about the full size M14, is the flash hider the normal screw on type? Link to post Share on other sites
massacreman Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 very nice, i plan on converting my mp008 to a soc16 when it arrives Link to post Share on other sites
master_titled Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 very nice, i plan on converting my mp008 to a soc16 when it arrives <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I just met a fellow Filipino who took his AGM M14 and converted it into a Soc16 I recently bought an AGM Branded M14 (Cost me 5500 pesos, roughly 100USD) its a china made gun (TM Clone) Actually, its pretty good. Everything thats metal in the TM version is metal here. It shoots 340FPS stock. Comes with a hicap and a scope rail for optics... BUT... i wanted something different. So i went and created the cheapest and most effective SOC16 that can be had for under 120USD I started by cutting the outer and inner barrels of the gun. I also cut the sights to free them from the stock flashhider. After this, i fabricated a metal flashhider that would resemble the GnG Soc16's flashhider. Ill let the pictures speak for themselves: Then i sprayed it flat black: And i ended up with this: (Closeup of custom flashider): Shooting at 340 FPS stock, and it cost me under 120USdollars. hehe [/img] Link to post Share on other sites
fishsquatch Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 My new fave gun . . snip . . . I've got a question about the full size M14, is the flash hider the normal screw on type? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Very nice SOCOM! The standard M14 flash hider does not spin on like a regular flash hider because the sight is integrated. It is inserted over the outer barrel and then a little nut spins on the threads to tighten it down. There is also a little allen bolt to hold the nut in place. Does that make sense?

tmas Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Well I got my new TM M14 wood stock heavily upgraded internally by Airsoft Extreme (I will never, ever, ever work on an M14 again) to the AEG legal limit yesterday. I didn't quite believe all that stuff about the amazing range it has (especially heavily upgraded), but now I'm a believer... holy s***! I'm actually happy I bought the scope now as there's a reason now with my sudden found ability to reach out and touch someone. Boring obligatory picture: Link to post Share on other sites
The Saint Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 That AGM SOC16 job makes me a little annoyed that I have to pay several times the amount for a TM SOCOM14. Thank you very much, Canada. Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you very much, Canada. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dont worry when you get a TM M14 SOCOM you wont regret it. I payed £270 for mine from the uk when if I waited a while I could have got it for about £150 from HK but I dont regret it its just such a great gun to use Link to post Share on other sites
