benny6Of all the M14's I have, I don't have a standard configuration. **Build compete!**

Well the stock is a Minelli which is Italian walnut, so I guess it's consistent!
I do like the vented handguards and since this will be a casual range shooter, I'm not worried about mirage and all that. It's meant to be shot as a GI build with FMJ ammo.
I'll probably make a "Which M14 is right for you" video soon reviewing a plethora of M14 configurations to help prospective M14 owners which direction to go with.

arcwelderText being what it is, I feel we should clarify this as an "A Christmas Story" reference. The vented handguards are "frajily."

BRLThat is bad ass. I feel like I’m way out of my league with my limited knowledge of this platform. I feel tempted to buy my way in though!

benny6Made it out today and shot a box of M80 ball, then shot a group of 5 with 175 grain FGMM.
Good enough to score 49 out of 50 on a MR-31 at 100 yards. (600 yard reduced target for use @ 100 yards)
Shot like a dream with no hiccups what so ever!

WeshoweTony,
VERY nice build and a great shooter. I should have my parts ready to ship in the next week or two and we can begin on mine!
