Hello all. Currently deployed,( U.S. ARMY INFANTRY) but when I get back, I will be lookin into another M14.
I have a thing about 18-18.5in chrome lined bbls, and plan for this rifle to sport one as well. Also looking at a forged receiver, and USGI parts to make up the rest of the rifle, to include a synthetic stock. This rifle will be a shooter, so certain parts that are just as good as GI are acceptable, and I want the best forged receiver that is currently available.
Need some imput as I will only be able to afford one. ( Until I deploy again after this time)
Anyone have a pic of the James river heel stamp? ( I did a search here, but didnt come up with any pics of the JR heel stamp)
Which one should I go with? This one will need to be extra spl, as I plan to hand it down to my son.
Imput and opinions will be welcomed, as I need some help in this decision folks.
EDIT: I know very little about the James River M14's. Just started my research into them, but would appreciate a quick run down about them.
