SOLD
So the time has come for me to start preparing to sell my rather well loved M14, bought this not that long ago in used condition, ended up tearing it apart and cleaning it up, replacing the parts that need work.
So its current condition is as follows:
Is is missing the bolt cover thingy, which is purely for looks and serves no function, so I've removes all the parts related to it (kept them in a little box) and it reduced a lot of the rattle.
it fires perfect straight and true with all the ammo I've tried, its got just about the longest inner barrel you can buy, stock 6.03 (I think) tightbore barrel, I've seen few guns that shoot as consistently as this thing.
the semi-auto fire selector does not work, its missing a bracket that I'm more than willing to include, however the cutoff lever and trigger assembly is worn (it still works) but the bracket isn't the only thing that needs replacing. Totaly overhaul of the gun's trigger assembly would cost around $50 for the bracket, wiring, and gears and things. I'm more than happy to do this, I just need the money in advance as I can't afford the repairs myself (main reason I'm selling the gun)
basically, this gun is firing beautifully, but the extras could use some loving.
I'm asking $150
currently I've cleaned everything, and put in:
a new safety assembly so it works properly.

I'm more than willing to throw in any requested work, or, to give links to the distributors I've been in contact with to track down parts for this gun
also note, it has no scope mount and has been kept true to its WWII heritage in appearance minus the bolt cover, pictures are available on request, and also on my flickr page:
