M14 wood stock question

[Jiggiwatt]

Will a wood stock for a TM M14 also work with the TM M14 socom ? From looking at pictures, they look pretty close to the same to me. The socom appears to just have a shortened barrel.

I'm looking to build a bastardized M14 from the ground up...any other major differences between the Socom and full size M14 that I should know about ?

Cheers

[Nova316]

only difference i've seen is the barrel length/the front sight position/flash hinder/and that it says Socom on the bolt

[Jiggiwatt]

Is there any part of the M14 which won't make it through the CBSA ? I can't think of anything which isn't kosher in that respect.

You'll get a stock across with no problems.. talk to Hotrod.. he's got an M14 in pieces that you might be able to get some parts from

Jiggiwatt -

I have several M14's and I switch the stock from my SOCOM 16 to my M14 back and forth all the time.

I really like the finish on the TM SOCOM 16 over the regular TM M14 stock, so I find myself switching the stocks out quite a bit. Takes about 20 seconds

My M14 is a G&G, completely non compatable with TM

Really ? so if I got a G&G mechbox with G&G walnut stuck then I'm screwed if I want to use TM parts ? Because unfortunately that cranks the price of this project through the roof.

[hotrodthug]

nothing is compatible as far as i know, especially the mags

[Roughneck]

None of the internals are compatable between G&G and TM for the M14's. I was just thinking of the wood stock.

[Double Tapper]

When they say TM compatible,would the wood stock slip right on
to my agm m14,or are there slight adjustments to be made?.

AMG =TM clone. so any TM M14 products will work with the AGM M14.

[Double Tapper]

Cool,looks like I'll be getting the wood on for spring,thanks.

Springs!

Sorry, had to...

I greatly dislike G&G (and thus CA as they copied G&G) M14's, I have owned both TM and G&G and found the G&G horrific performance wise and the hopup was a nightmare, it just kept shredding rubbers. My TM is a nail driver and deadly accurate, I have made several one shot kills past 150' (practically no wind days though.)

well if by good ya it is. its walnut, but that is pricy IMHO. i got my wood stock for about 155ish. But again, its not walnut (i dont actually now the type of wood). It all depends on what you want to spend.
