2019年12月24日 · Brief history of USMC M14 DMR: The Marine Corps tested various configurations of an M14-based Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR) during the 1990s, and developed the technical package for the final configuration around 1998. Production of the DMR at Quantico’s Precision Weapon Section (PWS) began around 2000 (NSN: 1005-01-458-6235).

2020年12月25日 · The last combat-deployed M14 rifles used by the U.S. Army were the M14 EBR-RI rifles. Approximately 6200 EBR-RIs were made at Rock Island Arsenal during 2009-2011, and they were in service from 2009 to approximately 2018 as the 7.62 NATO Squad Designated Marksman (SDM) rifle, but I think all of them have now been withdrawn.

2021年10月19日 · I first saw Army M14s during the early GWOT era. Vowed I would own one someday. Well....today is that day. "Surplus" everything with the exception of the SAI receiver and the Krieger heavy. All parts are TRW and modified as needed to meet the original build specs for these rifles (welded gas...

2013年3月23日 · These prototype black DMR rifles are extremely important in USMC firearms history because they paved the way for the creation of the issued green stock DMR's and the chassis built M39 EMR's. The Corps wanted a more modern M14 rifle and these black DMR's were a proof of concept successfully showing what could be done to the weapons platform.

2017年3月11日 · USMC M14 DMR w/ bipod, sling and empty magazine being weighed: View attachment 8535907 As noted, the feedback to Crane from soldiers regarding the early Mk 14 was it was too heavy, so chassis was shortened 1.75” and barrel was shortened by 4” (going from 22” to 18”, and it was the standard skinny profile, not the thicker, medium weight ...

2023年11月5日 · Synopsis: This replica represents the final or 'omega' variation of a precision US military-issued M14 DMR rifle. It was a three-year journey to build this replica. Per a guy at Crane, some were still in service as of 2020 for NECC DMR training, but many of them were in storage and had never been issued.

As for the M14 in the 200Xs, yes it was used by the USMC who had about 400 of the dedicated M14 DMRs made beginning in 2000, and many rack grade M14s were also pulled out of storage by the Army and accurized for DMR use as well in Afghanistan and Iraq, as both showed the need for an accurized rifle with a 600 to 800 meter effective range, which ...

2021年1月4日 · Each DMR rifle was tested for accuracy before being deployed to the fleet, and had to show an extreme spread of no more than 1" MOA in order to be issued (e.g., 5-shots within a 3” by 3” square at 300 yards). USMC M14 DMR fitted with the Ops Inc suppressor, special barrel coler, and night vision scope (online picture)

I fully realize this may not be the best forum for this but I am not getting much traction across the street either. It seems most have moved beyond (not sure if for the better but thats another story) the M14 platform but I am a fan. I have a new M21 DMR Bula built rifle that has a receiver...

2021年10月30日 · I understand this is him electro-stenciling the serial number on the mount to match the M14 rifle after he built them. View attachment 7519698 A forum member in his neck of the woods is in the process of getting an replica built of that rifle. My USMC DMR will have to suffice re this niche, as I still have a few other M1A projects underway.
