G&P M14 DMR - Yay or Nay?

[FPSEngland]

Hopefully looking at making this my first purchase when I get my UKARA

Any thoughts on it? Is it worth the money? Is it any good? Insight would be helpful.

Cheers.

Why nay?

Why nay?

Hang about. The thread title suggests that you're looking for a one word response?

Yay, or Nay.

I say "Nay."

Be careful with what you say when BAMF is about, you never know what he'll say next if you give him the opportunity

But on a *slightly* more serious note, I wouldn't mind a G&P M14 DMR myself, with a sand/tan stock, plus a RIS/RAS (depending on what you prefer to refer to a railed front end as), handguard with KAC trademarks on it.

Word of caution though, an M14 AEG is not a lightweight option, to say the least, but carrying one around a site all day long, will give you one heck of a workout, that's for sure!!

Exactly (and I thought I was bad for resembling that remark...oh darn, the cat's out of the bag :-$ )

Thanks Blytm, was trying not to bring that up. I am making an attempt not to be a prick this time around, thanks.

Mm. I was reading it weighs close to 10lbs with all the kit on. So that plus mags, sidearm, mags and the like would be straining. Oh well, guess I won't have to renew my gym membership next year. ;P

He doesn't lie.
You need to be a strong chap to carry an M14 around.
I am not a strong chap, I end up sitting around in ditches.

seriously though, if m14 is the route you want to take, start with a bog standard tm m14, or maybe the socom model, both considerably lighter than the ebr or rizzed up models, yet their very good straight out of the box, range/accuracy etc, & maybe "explore" the dmr role before committing to it.

Re: G&P M14 DMR - Yay or Nay?

I'm a DMR user currently, using an M4/16 spiffed up to look like an SR25 (Poor mans SR25 :P) so I'm not sure what difference an M14 DMR-type rifle would make. I'm unsure how much my rifle weighs, but I'd bet on it being at least 7-8lbs. And, if anything, that stock looks awesome. I want it.

Re: G&P M14 DMR - Yay or Nay?

ultimately, they all do the same, literally..............the rifle model is largely cosmetic, esp if your buying from a quality manufacturer, hence why i mentioned TM.
much of the success you'll have as a DMR will come down to how well your rifle of choice is set up, hop being the biggest issue usually.
i'd still say go with a bog standard old skool m14, you already have an m4 derivative, as they say a change is as good as a rest.
before you part with any money, is there anybody at your regular site running an m14 that maybe you could borrow mid game for an hour or two, much better to decide if you get on with it & are comfortable before blowing your wad............wish i'd done that before buying my old m60, just thinking about it makes my discs ache
only downside is the golden rule of borrowing guns, "if you bend it, you mend it"
i haven't checked your profile, i'm assuming your armoury is fairly limited, if you already have a long DMR dedicated m4 rifle, you might be better thinking about a short cqb m4 type aeg, you'll have mag/vest compatibility & have a choice guns suited for most scenario's as well.
