I gained experience with the M14 while on the USS Ranger CV-61 in the mid 1980s. I was a member of the ship's augmented security forces (an additional duty), so I was trained with M14s, M60s, M870s, M1911s... AND the famous Browning M2 machine gun - for which I was an in-port emergency gunner on the Sponson #6 M2 mount!

Thank you for your service, sir. What did you think of the M14?
