Another dumb question from the US (m14)

gdidy · May 5th, 2007, 01:51

Ok I'm fixing to buy a m14 from redwolf, now my question is I see g&P rail mounts and tokoyo marui ones, first off what the difference in the rail mounts on these two m14s? cause on my m4 i have two ways to mount a scope of the main body just like every other m4.. so can some one please post me a link to some pictures where its supposed to go and should be attatched?

And no Im not a newbie Just never used one of these rifles

Thank you always
Graham

Those mounts use a bolt on the side of the receiver to secure.

The difference between different brands is small aesthetic details, finish quality, and appearance (or lack thereof) of trademarks.

Can always look at searching and buying a real steel M14 mount, most likely cheaper than airsoft versions (up here they are, like 1/2-2/3 the cost of the airsoft version) but the screw threads might not be the same.

yea im ordering one of the new m14s from CA hopefully the threads will be the same, i sent and email to red wolf but they didnt get back to me, but when I get it ill be sure to write a review im getting it with a level 3 upgrade preinstalled from red wolf.

I would wait for a while until buying one of the new CA M14's. They are based off the G&G one, which all except the newest one (the veteran version I think) were shit. Trust me, when it comes to the M14, the TM version is the best, you wont be disappointed.

I agree except that red wolf is preupgrading it, which means they will tare the gear box down and rebuild it. either way I will let you all know how it comes out

if it goes poorly i can always sell it

I did lots of research and i found that if some one really good tares down the gear box puts new everything in it, the g&G's become much more reliable. its not a flawed design just a flawed quality process

bad news from hong kong today... I was contacted by redwolf to be told that they would not be able to upgrade my weapon, or make the scope mount fit

they did offer the same on a tM m14 but we are still sorting out the details on cost hopefully things will work them selfs out..
