AAAHH; the tried, tested, and true M-14 Rifle. A shoulder fired weapon in 7.62 millimeter with a 20 round box magazine.
As fine a battle weapon as the M-1 Garand, but instead of an 8 round clip, just more cartridges in the magazine.
Yes, the 14 was a nice improvement on the Garand. I have the SOCOM which is something of an M-14 semi-auto carbine. Nice little gun.
I did have to jettison the fiberglass/polywhatever stock for a nice walnut one though.
