About to buy my very first M14... what to look for?

It’s a TRW Diamond M14, I’ll check it out tomorrow. I’m planning to change the barrel to either Kriegger or Criterion. What parts should I consider replacing for optimum performance? TIA!:slight_smile:

Mine was a Federal Ordnance from Woolworths, in Tysons Corner Mall in VA!

Dont buy Fed Ord - worked like a champ until you tried to mount a scope, reciever not to spec. Fun show sale!

Honestly, check out Fulton Armory’s website. Great info there. Different versions, vendors, etc - even Chinese if you add US parts.

Huh?

Is this a transferable machinegun? If so, is it a reweld?

I wouldn’t be replacing the barrel if it is original.

The OP is in the Philippines so the NFA is N/A.

For the OP, you have a great foundation. If the barrel is shot out, go with a Criterion barrel.

Criterion it is, thanks a lot Lee!:slight_smile:
