I just happen to have been born in 1951 , go figure .? Read this ;
Cunuckgaucho Posted July 6, 2018 Report Posted July 6, 2018 Going to keep an eye on this. Currently collecting parts for a couple M1A/M14 builds this winter so any hints,tips and hacks appreciated.
Sisco Posted July 6, 2018 Report Posted July 6, 2018 Beautiful Survival! M14’s are just a nice looking rifle, and looks like you are starting,your build with the best! Will be watching this build with interest.

Robocop1051 Posted July 6, 2018 Report Posted July 6, 2018 Is there an online CAD file for the M14 receiver? This might be a fun endeavor.

Sisco Posted July 7, 2018 Report Posted July 7, 2018 Gotta say that shooting my Springfield M1A is really relaxing and enjoyable. I think it is a link to my fascination with them as a kid in the 1950’s. I like my AR10’s as well, but they have a totally different feel to them.

Pretty sure the US Military drawings are archived some where on line . Good luck , because these Receivers are not like an AR , need specific tooling to make them & its not cheap to Forge anything . Some Manufacturers make them from Billet Steel ( Smith Enterprises ) Some make them from investment casting ( Springfield Armory Inc. ) The specialized Tooling will cost an arm & a leg & then find someone that knows how to use it .Much cheaper to purchase a Bula Forged Receiver , Futon Armory or a SEI & go from there . You have till midnight to get in on a Bula deal for the fourth ! Happy 4th of July from Bula Defense! We are pleased to announce our best sale ever and look forward to your business!

Matt.Cross Posted July 7, 2018 Report Posted July 7, 2018 I'll make you a CAD file if someone sends me a receiver, for reverse engineering of course.....

Robocop1051 Posted July 7, 2018 Report Posted July 7, 2018 Matt... if you draw it, I’ll do my best to get it cut. If I can cut them, I will guarantee you at least one of them.

Matt.Cross Posted July 7, 2018 Report Posted July 7, 2018 This is going to take a while to do, some poor draftsman gave a lot of time and effort to the prints for this beast, but they're comprehensive!
