Wandering through a local pawn shop, I spotted a familiar M14 type silhouette in the rack that was new since my last visit. Upon examination I discover a heel marked Chinese rifle. Now, I've seen heel marked Polytec's but this one was marked:
U.S. Rifle M14S
Century Arms Ltd.
St. Albans, NY
C-06XX
Condition was fair but could use some TLC. Also had a USGI type flash hider with bayonet lug but not as cleanly made. The op rod was also exactly like USGI in the cut for the hook of the connector rod rather than the slant or square cut I normally associate with Chinese rifles. Price was $850.
Anyone else seen one like this? I'm hoping the Grand PooBah of all things M14 will come along....aka...Different. BGRIN1
