M-14? Now that is going to be one heck of a pogo stick ride when it's on rock and roll!

Back in '68 I watched a spry little fellow do a 'tater digging shuffle with one when he panicked and forget to let go of the trigger. Woulda laffed my tookus off, 'cept the fool was standing next to me when he started plowing ground towards my feet. Fortunately, the magazine only held 20-rounds and it ran dry pretty quick.

If you've got yerself a gin-U-wine registered M-14 receiver you should be able to get the parts from most Class-III dealers or Class-II manufacturers that build or repair the M-14. They should be listed in the yellow pages. But, you gotta show 'em your paper work before they'll do anything more than just chat at you.

If you don't have papers, you might want to call the St. Louis Field Office of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. They're in the blue pages. They can provide you with all the legal do's and don'ts regarding your project.
