@user-qi6uu7on7d not really sure you should comment since you're Korean. The only weapon you've handled is the K2 daewoo and that's an AR-18 based action which sounds nothing like the M1 family of rifles. Their action makes a ringing sound when it cycles and ejects. You can always tell what weapon is being fired if you have enough experience with them. Ask one of your vietnam veterans if they could tell the difference between their M16 and the enemy AK and they'll tell you they'll never forget the sound

@TheGhostOfPatrickHenry 2 ай бұрын

Buddy of mine has his 02/07 SOT and hosts a big machine gun shoot. He let me shoot his M14 and whew lad. I wasn't ready on the first mag. First round hit the target, second went 5ft above it, third hit the top of the 12ft berm, 4th-9th went into the treeline and the sky. By the second mag I'd figured out how deep of a braced stance I needed and managed to keep all my rounds on target or within 3-5ft of the target. With the proper stance, lean and grip you can control it, but Ian McCullom described it best as "graying out your world". The recoil is so violent that you can't see your sight picture when firing, in fact all you can do is focus most of your energy on keeping the rifle relatively on target. The impulse is just way too violent to be practical in full auto.

@TheGhostOfPatrickHenry 23 күн бұрын

I'll add to this: Having shot an actual M14 in the same sitting as an M11 in 9mm going at 1500rpm, the M11 was super easy in comparison to make a devastating impact on target at 50 yards. It's much more controllable than the M14, which is hilariously ironic considering the military general that described the M10/M11 as being ideal for a gunfight in a phone booth.

@@craigfinley2507 I was. In training we used the M-14. In Viet Nam, we were given M-16s. I called the M-14A1 a beast on full auto, because it was very hard to control and nearly impossible to hit the target with it. One man was issued one once, and he turned it back in for an M-16. I guess an undependible weapon was better than one he couldn't control in a firefight. And, you're welcome.
