A tale of 2 M-14's

Blastyman · January 11th, 2006, 20:29

This is a Story about two M14's. While both guns started off almost identical they both took different paths in there lifes.

One M14 was a retro and his hero's were in the vietnam war. He aspired to become like his Father. An Earlier m21.

The other was more modern and decided he wanted to become a bit more tactical. So he decided to shed his Heatshield grab a RAS and a paintjob.

Ok this story thing is lame.

Here is a rundown on the specs

Top m14 (XM-21)

Real wood stock
Systema silent piston head
Prometheus Hardpiston
Prometheus Tightbore barrel
Prometheus sintered bushings
Prometheus MSS 120 spring
Gaurder Bearing spring guide
Gaurder enhanced nozzle
Gaurder highflow cylinder head
Gaurder Hardened anti reversal latch.

Chronos about 435 fps.Still running stock gears and 8.4v and works great.

Lower M14 w/RAS

Prometheus Hardpiston
Prometheus piston Head
Systema sintered bushings
Prometheus MSS 110 spring
Gaurder Bearing spring guide
Gaurder enhanced nozzle
Gaurder highflow cylinder head

Chronos about 380fps

The wood stock gun project is pretty much complete other then probably tossing a set of torque up gears in.

The lower gun has a bit to go yet. Shorter barrel and different flashider is in the works for it.

ah so it was you that did the wood stock?
how easy was it to put that stock on? reason why I'm asking on here is just cuz I'm figuring there's other people that'll ask.
I'm sure there was a bit of modification that you have to do to get it to work.

You should get anward for your work. For the real wood m14 stock where might we come by these and at what sort of price range? Also what mount does the frist m14 use?

LaZeDoUt^Jr. · January 11th, 2006, 21:27

Wow, great guns man good job! i really like the wood on the first one but the coolness of the second. :tup:

Yeoman · January 11th, 2006, 22:03

thanks for the link, now I just gotta find someone to do it for me. I just don't trust myself.
great stuff though, gotta love that stock!

I asked him this awhile ago. He said a gun store.

Awesome M14s.....the RAS looks incredibly cool! Now, if only I had a VN era USMC kit to go with the M14 with real wood stock I don't have... :cry:

Very impressive work. I love both. If I had to chose, I would have to kill you, or seriously injure you so I could run away with both!

I want an M14 now....

Mason · January 12th, 2006, 03:09
