US M14 Parts Kits

the prohibited part is the receiver- that's the bit cut in half and we can't own b/c it is DEEMED to be a machine gun - the m305s and other sem- autos were basically not available at that time and thus secaped the net- ie they were manufactured with the f/a option- the 14 for that matter wasn't either ( you needed a kit to do it) but the dimwits that drafted c-17 just named h&r, Winchester, trw, and springfield armory ( the government factory) as prohibited- even though the "guts" had bee modified as per cbsa regulations just a year or 2 earlier- so if you have an m14 style rifle( an m1a or an m305 or anything assembled on a non-named receiver, it's perfectly legal- the parts on the real m14s are manufactured to tighter tolerances and more durable, hence more desireable
 
Thanks M1akid and t-star. I've been drooling over the M14 for years, but dont have the funds or time to put into fine tuning an m305, and the cast receivers and price of the models down south turn me off (I'm a forged or milled guy; love stability). So I would definitely be in for this. Sounds like an amazing idea. So what possibility if any is there of purchasing only a Norc receiver or doing a group buy for a similar quality one from the states?
 
I can smell a lot of M305 parts kits on EE after all said and done.

Too bad you can't get M305 receivers by themselves anymore.

I remember when you could buy them for $75-100 buck-a-roo's.

I went through this craze back when they where prohibiting the M14's.

M14's where everywhere and stinking cheap, as people where just dumping them.

I must have built at least 15 or so of these at the time.

Thanks Wolverine and team for bringing what I thought was long gone.

The M305 isn't available in the USA, they have a ban on chinese firearms imports.
 
just a thought - could we look into a group buy of recevers from fulton armory via I run guns--
 
there's enough folks that are dissatisfied with their stocks and handgaurds for whatever reason we could probably source these from within the cgn community- mostly it's the I gotta have something different syndrome
 
in other words you're asking whether a American barrel will fit on a lrb, fulton armoury, or smith receiver - amongst others- ask OLDSMOBILER or anybody that has a lrb chassis- the short answer is still YES- regardless of how many times you ask it- the norc is merely another option available to us Canadians that the americans don't have- what most people don't realise is that the norc m15(305 et al)was REVERSE ENGINEERED from m14s captured by the nva/cong, and built to help with a Filipino uprising- well that coup failed, and the Chinese were left with a bunch of jigs and made up weapons , so they tried to sell them- well, the boys over at Springfield complained to Clinton the former, the male version of the current one, that this threatened their livelihood as the Chinese things were coming in for as little as 300 us and the batf previously INSISTED that certain modifications had to be made- ie removal of the bayonet lug ,scope mount hole and fun switch- I have one of the early versions- and then good old Billy boy slapped the embargo on them - drying up the supply- the Chinese then offered these to Canada and other countries and found a good enuff market for them, listened to what clint McKee and company had to say about the soft bolts ( which was totally false, but that's another story) and kept improving to where we are today
it's not a drop in, certain pin diameters and pins being shorter than others, but do us parts fit on a norcc receiver-?yes, for the most part
