Description:
So 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 orginal M16) in US Armed force usage. The latest iteration, the Mk14 EBR/M39 EMR platforms though, likely signals 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.

This is a very great mod! It works perfectly. Thank you.
Thanks toadie! I was not expecting the textures to be so worn and dirty but it gives them character. The rifles really look like they've been in service a long time. Also, the sound effects are fantastic! Great job!
Great pack of M14! Thank you very much !
Awesome pack, Definitely my favorite. It would be awesome to see an EBR version added. (even more awesome would be a shortened barrel EBR with the suppressor recessed into the hand guard
)
Awesome weapons! I however am more of a "Modern shooter" and though the M14 itself is a great weapon, I would prefer using it's descendant the MK14 EBR. I know a variation of it is already included, named the M14 SOPMOD, however it's barrel is a little short compared to the MK14s I have seen. Longer barrelled versions and maybe a marksman variation or two [I.E. the M39 EMR] would make this pack one of the very best battle rifle packs out there. But as the way it is now, it is fantastic and the models are excellent and even more so for the reload animations. Keep up the great work!
v1.3 suppressors don't work on Play WithSix (they're literally not there, even in the arsenal).
Would it be possible to add to this pack or perhaps make a new pack for the Mini 14/30 =/= AC-556?
