>extremely good-looking gun>also extremely flawedIs it even possible to fix the M14?
Outside of Titanium parts, no. Its older tech than a G3/FAL.
>>64366027The only flaw is that the maid isn't on my dick
I have 3. My dad was on the team that built the vast majority of them
>>64366027>Is it even possible to fix the M14?Yeah melt it and them make a SCAR out of the metal.
>>64366027The M14 is fine, it is just mogged by new stuff, which shouldn't be a surprise since its really just an improvement/derivative of the Garand. >>64366196Beautiful rifles, miring that ART scope. I'm on the fence after the bedding wears out on my M1A whether to get a McMillan stock or an EBR chassis. Your thoughts?
>>64366222>he fell for the SCAR meme
>>64366027afaik it wasn't great but it was an ok retrofit for the time. they managed to make it the coolest scifi looking thing ever but it's really a very obsolete design all around. it's like your grampappy coming out of retirement with enough steroids and compression tape over his joints that he can fight one more war. it's impressive if you think of it like that
>>64366027The M1A by all accounts is a good rifle (but it isn't an EBR).M14 in general suffers (aside from the scuffed development and rush to get it in service) from being a weapon made for one thing (a mag-fed M1) then forced to be something else; first a selective fire battle rifle that could also be a LSW, then put into a DMR job because it was the closest thing that fit the bill.
>>64366027It's still more possible than fixing maidposters. At least the M14 has a kill count, maidposters can't even kill themselves.
>>64367397Whats wrong with maids?
>>64366027No, 11.5 PSA AR chads win again
>>64367467Loses to shotguns.
>>64366027The concept is fundamentally flawed. M14s were an update of the M1 system which was a relatively early self loading rifle design, rather than a full departure to something more modern like the G3 or AR-10 was. The EBR was a kludge to update M14s into DMRs because DMRs were needed and M14s were what they had to work with to accomplish the desired results.It did work, in that it was a practical DMR but it was still a kludge built on a kludge. It is extremely heavy, expensive and still prone to many of the annoying idiosyncrasies of the M14 design.I like the M14. I think it is a genuine upgrade over the M1 and both are good traditional rifles if you want to practice traditional rifle shooting. If that's the case, get a basic M14 in a polymer or fiberglass stock (or heck USGI wood) and enjoy it for what it is.If you want a modern battle rifle/DMR setup get a G3 clone or AR-10 instead. You'll spend a fraction of the money and you won't be ripping your hair out getting it to shoot well enough to justify that price point.

>>64366027For military use? Nope, not by today's standards. For civilian use? It's already pretty damn good, if I had one I'd add a micro prism mount like picrel and that's about it

>>64367467>>64367477Ironically both get mogged by the m14>tfw no M14e2 clone to larp with like I'm in Bo1 zombies
>>64367767New? Way too much, haven't checked in years. Quality sucks anyway.Used? I see them around 1-1.2k all the time. Often early models with USGI parts. They became "uncool" after all the guntubers got on a shit talking bandwagon against them, so resale value just doesn't exist. Great time to get deals on used ones because you can haggle.LRBs and Bula can be snagged for comparable prices. Good upgrade if you can swing it. Norinco/Polytech have good receivers but shitty everything else so they make good projects. Federal Ordnance have USGI parts but horrible receivers so they are basically glorified parts kits.If you just want an cheap battle rifle get a Century CA-3 and call it a day.
>>64367767It depends on whether you get a standard, loaded, or national match rifle, plus theres the scout squad, tanker and SOCOM 16 models. Around gun stores I think they're priced a bit steep around 1800-2000 for a tanker and loaded model, respectively. I think for most M1As you should aim for around 1200-1700, maybe more depending on its age - the older ones use a lot more GI parts. For reference I got a 1993 national match rifle for 1700 bucks at a gun show two weeks ago.

You'll spend a fraction of the money and you won't be ripping your hair out getting it to shoot well enough to justify that price point.yeah i think the EBR is very cool but i would still say there's no real reason to go out of your way to pay lots of money for one. it was a hasty budget compromise made when the US just really needed rifles.i think the only real path towards an EBR that makes financial sense is if you inherit an M14 and you can find a sage chassis at an acceptable price. in that kind of setup i would assume it beats some of the competition at its price point

>>64368090Itβs not. Are you a fag
>>64367767I got mine (used JRA with bedding, unitized, trigger work) for 1800 on tacswap. New M1As are typically 1500ish, just get a Loaded from SA or save if you really like them and get a Fulton or LRB M14. They're fun and look awesome. Mounting optics is painful and expensive tho, do lots of research before you buy a mount. >>64367784A micro prism seems like a waste of potential for any .308 rifle desu desu>>64367890Unironically the Blackfeather RS chassis by M14.ca is a much more budget friendly and leightweight option that imo looks better than the Sage. Someday I may upgrade to that but I like my wood too much
>>64368738I your wood. Have you ever considered suppressing yours? I was thinking if I ever got a shorter variant I would.
>>64366249>The M14 is fineIf you like shitty guns with horrid origin stories, I suppose.
>>64368965I've shot them and M1s a lot, I like them, someone else's story doesn't change that for me.
>>64368957Definitely, I've done a lot of reading through the forums on it. Looks like my best option for suppression is a smith ent threaded sight adapter or just a thread adapter, adjustable gas plug from schuster or Fulton, and maybe a new piston from Sadlak. No idea what can I'd use yet, I like the Rugged 3 port brake and their .30 cal options but I'm leaning towards SF brake and can for this. That's IF the bore alignment is good, if bore alignment is off then I'm fucked unless I get a new barrel. No idea still what optic I'll end up getting, I like some of the 2.5-10x options but all are out of my price range for the year. Mounting options are as numerous as they are expensive, leaning towards the M14.ca mount if I end up getting a can. Apparently the BFA kit has a nifty little chamber cover that redirects gas pretty effectively without obstructing ejection, and covers the chamber a little better; the only mount that works in tandem with it to my understanding is the M14.ca mount, but that involves removing the rear sight completely just to install it. I don't really like how it looks but desu it's looking like the best option overall.

>>64366037Kinda weird that with modern engineering we still can't bring the weight of this gun down substantially...
>>64366027That's a dude isn't it?
>>64369414Not without completely redesigning it entirely purely for the thrill of it. It's an aged design that really can't be improved without redesigning it, in which case you just end up reinventing short stroke piston systems, and for what?

>>64369984Wow, filter so sexyChing chong my ding dong do da ping pong
>>64366027>Is it even possible to fix the M14?Not completely, but the EBR comes close. It doesn't really fix the irons, but it makes them unnecessary, so I suppose that's a fix. That's the good news. The bad news is that after you've spent the money for a M1A and the EBR refit, you have a rifle that's just about as good as one that's half the price. The whole EBR thing made sense for the US military when it was introduced, but it only makes sense for a citizen if you're hell bent on an EBR, or just a M14ish clone that doesn't suck and cost is no object. I'd personally make the argument that the best thing about the M14 is how damned sexy it looks, and placing it in the EBR chassis removes that, which leaves you with an expensive, adequate rifle that looks like a fucked asshole. It's not for me but it may be for you. The EBR serves as an example showing that a turd can indeed be polished if you're willing to spend enough money. The US military had that money, and they already had the M14 in inventory and needed a makee-workee DMR yesterday until they could get something better when they spent that money. If that's your use case, the EBR may make sense. If not, it probably doesn't. If you just want a good gun that meets the technical definition of a battle rifle, get an AR-10 and spend the saved money on optics and ammo. It won't be sexy like the M14, but neither is the EBR and it'll be more accurate, more reliable, and probably lighter.>t. armorerfag that's been posting greentexts about what's wrong with the M14 from a practical, rather than theoretical standpoint, for a number of years now>no, Ian doesn't cover most of it because he generally doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about, and he's way out of his element when he talks about the M14>no, I'm not going to repost it because nobody ever seems to learn from it, someone else can post it because I'm running out of space
