M14 Rifles

Details

Arma3

The M14 is the big F-You to FN Herstal and the FAL. At it’s core, it’s more or less just an Auto-fire capable M1 Garand that feeds from external mags instead of en-block clips, for better or worse. Of the “Big 3” .308 battle rifles of the era, the M14 is the most cumbersome, but like it’s parent design, is a nail-driver. It was so good at it that it well outlived it’s immediate successor (the original M16) in US Armed force usage. The latest iteration, the Mk14 EBR/M39 EMR platforms though, likely signal the end of it’s life, as the adoption of those was primarily decided due to an abundance of mothballed M14s and a distinct lack of 7.62 NATO effectiveness in the current arid conflicts, and M110s and Mk11s were in short supply.
