Titleist Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 No doubt, FarEast, I just want a DMR stock, that'd be nice, and would it kill someone to make a selector knob that looked like a DMR's (i.e a hex nut so that the gun could be turned to semi-only with that installed)?!

Bostitch Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 finally got one of my own! aim point on its way! most likely gonna putty/sand the seams then respray the gun with OD krylon (probably hit the heat shield too). Overall first impression, damn great gun for the price. always loved M14s, finally in the family Link to post Share on other sites
Chrome Beretta Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 I used to like the look of just a standard M14... then it turned into a SOCOM M14.... and now because of GRAW 2 i want the friggin EBR, ahh why!? Link to post Share on other sites
UrPeaceKeeper Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Thanks. I am going to get a G&P Brown Cover, when/if I order it. I looked the AGM M14 that was at the game today and it looked very nice minus the Cover. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why dont you save yourself the hassle of buying inferior plastic and buy a real one? They fist on a TM and fit on the AGM. Go to a local gunshow or look online and you can find numerous ones. I got mine for 25 bucks (with the real fiberglass stock ) and it makes the M14 feel about 100x better then the stock one. If you cant find one in brown, buy one and spray paint it yourself, you wont regret it! Medic I mean no offense but a silencer? That kinda counteracts the aimpoint dontcha think? Its plenty long as it is but with an Aimpoint i'd think you'd want it shorter? I like the paintjob though Link to post Share on other sites
FarEast Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 WarSmith just sent me a 1 peice maple stock for the M14 to review! Now I need another M14! Link to post Share on other sites
SGTOmegaM14 Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Love the M14 Medic! I plan on getting a RIS for my M14 and silencer so I can get a longer barrel. Link to post Share on other sites
evansy Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 How quiet is it with the silencer? I've noticed M14's have a pretty noise-isolated gearbox it seems, at least in comparison to my metal-bodied AR. I've toyed around with the idea of a QD silencer on my SOCOM, but I think I like the mini-ported flashhider too much to justify dropping it. A lot of you really don't like using the forward rail, do you? The first Springfield Soc16 I met had a scout-scope mounted on the forward rail, and ever since that afternoon on the range I can't think of a SOCOM without the forward mounted optics... Steve <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Its very quiet, theres pretty much no muzzel pop at all. I cant stand the forward rail, with aimpoints it just seems too far away and the optics all seem to be mounted too high. I'm not much of a fan of the side mounted rail either, it just seems too close. Most of the time I just use the iron sights. Link to post Share on other sites
christhesecond Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Sorry for stupid red aimpoint dial strap (came that way from ebay and forgot to sort it before I took the pic) and also must apologise for shocking my attempts at taking photo's. Although actually this one came out alright \/ \/ \/ Cheers Chris Link to post Share on other sites

For now I think I will just get a can of spray paint and paint the stock one for now. I just sold my P90 so I should have an M14 by next week. Long Live the M14 Brotherhood!!!

ABcolt Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 In the snow yesterday with my TM M14 - good times: Cross posted in the painted weapons thread, but fits here too. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is that a normal M14 with just a shorter barrel? Looks like something I would get as I love M14s but don't want to drag around on the extra length Link to post Share on other sites

evilliboba Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 (edited) Purists be damned... My AGM M14 is on its way to me as we speak. Should have it on Wednesday or Thursday. Edited March 16, 2007 by evilliboba Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 YAY! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And four days later... it's still in Minnesota. Thats a "chop mod" where he chopped the barrel and put it back together. a Socom 16 already does this but it has a lightly different finish and a slightly different front site post. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Negative. That is a 'Bush' or 'Scout' variant of the M14. 'Chopmod' is a fairly specific term that is generally only applied to a specific modification for the classic M14, the Sage EBR. I assume that you're confusion arises from the fact that most MK14 Mod 0 EBRs have barrels similar in length to the Bush and Scout rifles. Link to post Share on other sites
