nvm
The introduction was poor
Rather than introduce the gun with new troops who would've been trained to operate the guns
They stuck em into the hands of infantry men who had no experience with the rifle
Men who were used to their m14s
To make matters worse they introduced them without cleaning kits
I get the m16 got better, but I still think the army should have stuck with the m14, a rifle so reliable that springfield still produces them.
The m14 had it's own problems as well
Man I really wanna buy an m14 but they cost around $2000
my gun
airsoft
is probably getting here tomorrow

Such as the wooden stocks expanding in the humid weather
And poor manufacturing causing rounds to blast the flash suppressor off
Cook offs were also common
Yeah, modern m1a's use composite stocks
My grandpa was lucky enough to get a fiberglass stock in nam
Im getting one for my carrier
really?
is it against their policy? or something
?
The sherriff's department that he is at said it was
The M1A SOCOM is a gorgeous rifle
I want one really bad
Most departments have the policy no morale patches,
Socom
I have one
How does it fire?
I want to buy my first rifle but I don't know if I should get an M1A or just be basic and buy an AR
Pretty good its ive only got a couple rounds through
I despise socom m14s
How come?
They look so wrong
That's the CQB variant. The other ones look more normal IMO
ay, you guys seem pretty knowledgeable. What would you guys recommend for a first rifle?
