    New to the M14 world...but how accurate would a shorty be compared to the regular version...Assuming NO mods were done and it was factory fresh...

    (learning about these...and hoping to get on the wagon soon!!)

    Thanks

    there is a thread right now in the main battle rifles forum "shorty vs full length" go read up on that. some say shorty is more accurate because the barrel is more stiff or something rather... dno if thats true, but almost guaranteed they will be more accurate than you.

    John, how about scout squad type with the handguard upper optic rail in new style composite stock in dark earth. Navy Sight? What about a run of 5/10 round mags? I be in for one or two such rifles and a number of mags.

    The ones they sell in New Zealand are regular factory items and not a special order, but they are 18" so way to evil for the woods of Canada...

    Pre-orders are horrible for everyone involved. They never go smooth. We will not be doing a pre-order to bankroll this project.

    They also have norinco UZIs... mmmmmmm

    Change my regular preorder to a shorty preorder. Saves me the trouble of having it cut down myself.
