M14(M1A) Rifle

 

I have been building these rifles for over 25 years.  I have always tried to incorporate the best in what I built.  I feel that the rifles I offer are state of the art and are some of the most dependable and accurate available.

Adjust Trigger Pull
$45.00
Produces a clean, crisp two-stage pull with a total weight of 4¾ to 5 pounds.

M14 Trigger Group

? Why is the trigger pull set at 5 pounds.

Normally the M14(M1A) trigger has to be at least 4½ pounds to prevent the rifle from doubling and also to meet NM specs.  By initially setting the weight to 5 pounds it allows for parts to wear in slightly and still maintain a safe margin on the trigger pull weight.


Modify Gas Cylinder to NM Specs
$60.00
The gas cylinder and front band are screwed together to produce a unitized assembly.  This provides for a more consistent placement of the front band on the barrel in relation to the gas cylinder and the stock ferrule.

NM Gas Cylinder Assembly

 

Square & Crown Barrel & Flash Suppressor
$30.00
This modification insures that the mating surfaces between the barrel and flash suppressor are as perfect a fit as possible.  Uneven gas release at the muzzle is one of the biggest accuracy problems for these rifles.  (Also performed on Muzzle Brakes)

M14 Flash Suppressor

NM Modify Flash Suppressor
$30.00
Allows expanding gas to escape more easily reducing its influence on the bullet.  Also eliminates contact points between the barrel and flash suppressor.  Four separate dimensions are altered in our modification process, not just one dimension you typically see elsewhere.

Modify Muzzle Brake
$15.00
Eliminates contact points between barrel and muzzle brake.
