Excellent video! I learned quite a bit from that one. I honestly never knew you could reload the mag with top-feed clips. Makes sense, given its M1 history.

BTW, for anyone in the know...how does the M14 compare to the FN FAL and/or the HK G3?

More accurate than the FAL (in general) and having more potential for increasing accuracy than the FAL, and easier on the brass than the G3.

The FAL is a fine rifle and easy to maintain in the field. The sights on the FAL suck. I never understood why they did not put the same sights on it as the Garand or the M14. However it is still a fine rifle and can give great grief to bad guys down range. At 100 yards using rapid fire I can put most of the rounds in a pie plate using an FAL.

Just my own non-technical preference, but I’ve owned them all and if I could have one back, it would be the M14.
