Interesting M14 video

[Polar Man]

Just looked up a poem I remembered doing in high school, "the naming of parts" by Henry Reed. It worked better as a poem then in this narration but it was cool to see the M14. I would love to have that full scale diagram for the wall, too.

Hmmm... Americans with M14's, but you can tell it was written by a Brit with the SMLE in mind. "This is the piling swivel, which in your case you have not got." Lots of SMLE's around without piling swivels, but I haven't seen an M14 with one, and in any case the Americans would call it a "stacking swivel".

Hah! and I just noticed that the icon on the tab in my browser next to the name of the web page is a piling swivel!

it's also a LOAD OF CRAP- at least as far as the m14 is concerned-
