Show me your built M14

[Nate.308]

Hey All,

I started work on my first 305 build. So far I haven't done to much yet, other than my research, I added a match grade spring guild and a scope mount(M14.CA). Now I have been scouring the internet looking for various USGI internal components. Also there is so many stocks out there I dont know where to start. My thinking was a nice solid hardwood stock but this is heavy and does not allow for the mounting of rails. But I like the traditional look....

Post some pics and spec of your 305 build and it would be great to know your concept or philosophy behind the build.

I was just visiting Ellwood Epps and discovers that they got a bunch of USGI stocks into their inventory. Great shape but I could not buy a walnut stock since I'm such a fiberglass stock beeeyotch.

They also have Criterion barrels in stock but they could be all sold out by the time you get home from work today. Yuk yuk yuk

Enjoy the build process !!

Cheers, Barney

Show me your built M14

Say hello to my Crazy Horse M21A5 EBR type SEI.
Built for me by Smith Enterprise on a Poly Tech receiver.

It has a mix of USGI, Poly Tech, SEI, Sadlak, LaRue, and M14EBR.US parts.
The CQB-16 shown in walnut is currently undergoing a Blackfeather "RS" transformation.

The concept behind my M21A5 EBR build was to have a highly accurate, long range capable modern M14
that I could easily shoot well with full length iron sights, a red dot, or a variable magnification scope...

The CQB-16 shown in walnut is curpotencialrently undergoing a Blackfeather "RS" transformation.

I really like the concept of the Blackfeather due to its potential for customising grips and stocks!

Great looking rifles!

That stock caught my eye as well, Im much more experienced with AR style rifles and a stock like that would just feel right, I think!

You cant go wrong with any stock really, as long as it works for you, I personally tho am a fan of the classic walnut, tho not opposed to a USGI fiberglass one, maybe on a future build. As far as my build went I wanted it too look as original as possible.

I am such a fan of the classic look that even the AR had to be old school, but thats just me, good luck on your build and when its all said n done throw some pics up too.

It's custom made by me
I'm not a dealer here (or elsewhere) so can't say much more than that.
