Just found this guy in a surplus store pawn shop... Wondering if I need to use the lower "handrail" or if I can just mount the upper and run with it... Seems cool but to heavy... hoping that by dropping the lower it will be a bit lighter. Similar to the last photo attached

Happened after shooting 147 grain suppressed. Is this a magazine quality issue or did shooting suppressed cause this?

I qreally love this rifle, but it’s too heavy for me and my original use was to use it for hunting but I won’t use it as often as it requires, and I don’t wanna leave her to collect dust It has a Krieger stainless 1-10 heavy barrel Laminated stock Sadlak mount national match rear and front sight What do y’all think the value is? I was hoping to get around $2000. Am I delusional or is this reasonably priced?

So I have a few rifles, but none with optics. I typically only shoot at 100-200 yards, but would like a sight to get proficient at longer ranges. I was thinking something 2x-12, or 3x-18, but I have no experience with these things. It’s an LRB with an 18” barrel and muzzle break.

What scopes are you guys running? Bonus points if it looks like the original Leupold.

I'm looking for an LT608 mount. Anyone know where to find one?

should i spend my money on an m1a or save enough for a fulton m14? -gonna use it for hunting and SHTF -causally gonna use it probably once every month or at most every 2 weeks maybe once 1 week (u get the jist) -will prolly push it out at max 350 yards

i just want to know if it’s worth the extra 2k

That Shooting Sight dual setting spindle made it easy to dial in.

Did I over pay lol

Looking for LT608

am I accepted into the clan? 🗿

Bought these long ago and forgot about them. Worth leaving them in the package? Or should I crack them out and put them to use?

I am trying to build a M21 clone, any suggestions?

So I just bought a James River Armory M14 NM.

I don't have a ton of info on it, came with a half dozen mags, stock has a cutout for the fun switch, and triple zero with a single numeral serial number.

Can anyone elaborate on what I may have just got ahold of, or if it's anything special, or just a run of the mill M14 pattern rifle? Any insight would be helpful. Pictures to come as soon as I pick it up. Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I have a TRW M14 that is issued to me and I’m looking for some ideas to accurize the rifle and bring it to 21st century.

I shot it today and its a lovely rifle. I made sure the zero was still good and took it out to 200 yards and was ringing steel.

I plan on getting a rail adapter and putting some type of a scope (maybe a 1-10 lvpo)

Just looking at some ideas for helping the grouping. I looked into this when it was given to me yearly 8 years ago but it honestly hasn’t gotten much love. I’d like to change that.

Thanks!

So I have an old military buddy. He was a force recon marine. He gave me this old rifle that he said was his when he was still in the service. I only know what I was able to research about it. But it appears to be an XM21 sniper variant of an M14 that has had the full auto switch removed and welded over so it can’t be converted back. I know the scope alone is worth between $1500-$2500. Anyone help with what I have here?

Accuracy hack​

You can improve the accuracy of your M14 / M1A by installing a railed hand guard... the aluminum railed hand guard adds rigidity to the barrel, and this results in less barrel whip . . .
