![]() In summary, you may also wish to not sell that rifle. You would gasp at the quality of his work. ![]() I have a friend who is an FFL and also refinishes stocks for the M14/M1A and I would love to put you guys in touch. If you are interested in adding an immaculate and finely refinished stock, PM me. Not all M1A's have vented hand guards, and I have never installed any. The vented hand guards are nice, but they were known to crack at times and they will allow a bit more mirage to rise off the barrel due to heat more easily escaping the area. Your flash hider still has a bayonet lug, which is also a plus. You could easily replace the stock with a wood stock or a fiberglass GI stock and sell the M14E2 separately for a nice profit. Many of the remaining M14E2 stocks are missing pieces of the front grip, so you have hit a jackpot on that one. The stock in the picture is particularly valuable because it has all of the hardware, although it does look like it has seen use. It is an M14E2 stock, one of the versions that was developed to help with recoil under fully automatic firing and is also better suited to shooting in general due to the elevated stock comb. ![]() The stock alone is worth a couple of hundred bucks. As my screen name suggests, I know a little bit about the M1A. From the pictures, you have a very nice piece. ![]()
