Like the title says, has anyone done a review on the m14.ca mounts? They look pretty decent and anchoring it to the place where the rear sights are sound like a smart idea! But, correct me if I'm wrong, aren't the best and most stable mounts made of steel and not an Aluminum alloy? That's the impression I got from most of the mount reviewers on CGN. Thanks in advance for the comments and help!
? Review in the m14.ca mounts?

Looking for a good review as well.Seen a couple but they never really got ''in depth'' was all kind of just based on looks and opinions not any actual range findings.Seems like there may be a couple problems inherent to the design to me was hoping someone could shed some light.
I too would be curious of a full range report and review.
Sadly, if I understand correctly, there were some issues between the designer and a prominent figure here on CGN, for reasons unknown the designer was banned from this site .. Thus I doubt any of the prominent figures on CGN will review is due to their allegiance.
I do wonder tho, why a steel one was never created?
I would buy a steel one if they made it. Alas, I will be getting an ARMS 18 hopefully by xmas. The last of the other parts are already en route including a M14Doc bolt disassembly tool! Can't wait

Frank, the owner of M14.ca and I had some recent discussions on this mount and I was also directed to M14RA.com for a full review by master M14 builder Art Luppino. I would suggest anyone wanting a review should visit Art's forum on M14RA.
I don't know of anyone who has performed an in depth torture test type review on this mount.

definitely recommended. I had a custom stock made by Bob Fortier and the check rest was up pretty high. But from my understanding, the M14 was designed for irons, so most scope mounts require a cheek rest anyways.

m14doctor and satan are bring ther m14s so we will shot the piss out of the rifle and the deer! Haha
Personally I would never go back to a Aluminum M14 mount. Steel all the way Baby!!!!! ......Smith Enterprises would be my first choice.
I tried one of the Aluminum SA 3rd Gen mounts and it was ok.......If you like having to hit the mount with a hammer/mallet to properly mate it to the reciever............and if you can get one cheap enough........
