M14s

Hey brother,

Don't take this the wrong way. Just trying to help out. I believe your sling is installed backwards.

It's actually a pretty fantastic design.

I wasn't sure so I just threw it on there

thanks for the tip

Can I at least use the dremel for a trigger job on the M14. I remember you saying something about trigger job and dremel

the dremel is the only way to do any sort of trigger job on the m14.

someone tried telling me that I needed to gently and carefully "stone " the surfaces (whatever the f*ck that is, sounds like some limp wristed liberal conspiracy to me, "careful" and "gentle" on a gun.. pfft.)

kidding... of course...


that shorty makes me want a second m14. my first was a 2007 m14s and it's kept me more than busy! op rod guide/piston alignment was not great, sights sucked, flash hider was welded by a 13 yr old on break from school, wood stock was horrible. All fixed now!

Finish is great though, some machine marks but w/e.

I just received my M305 from Lever Arms. Now to get out to the range and get it sighted in

Cool, I got mine from Lever Arms a fewmonths back and it works well. Have a good time and buy lots of ammo, you are going to need it!

Mounting a bayonet on the shorty reminds me of an old article in "Soldier of Fortune" magazine way back in the 80's which was called "Make Mine M-14"

To compensate for the bayonet handle problem, they had it mounted sideways

You wouldn't be able to get enough of my company on the internet either if you handled my wood

Hello everyone, new to the forum, just purchased a new norinco m14s over the weekend for $460 taxes in with two mags, one 5, one 5/20 and a synthetic stock. I haven't even taken it out of the plastic bag dripping in oil yet. I was wondering how can I tell what year it was produced as I think this is from a recent shipment. Also if anyone has any reports on the quality of recent shipments of the norinco m14/m14s? Once I have some time to open it up and give it a good cleaning I'll post some pics.

I believe the year is in the serial number. Where are you located? All of the "quality issues" can be fixed fairly easy. Lots of info on here for the M14's

Congrats all on your new rifles guys. Got to love the first day and that brand new, oily gun in that plastic bag.
