Cyma CM032C Full Wood and Metal

The replica:

An excellent base for support or anti-snip, the M14 from Cyma boasts excellent performance in terms of range and accuracy. Thanks to its full stock, it offers excellent stability when shooting and provides a pleasant shoulder action thanks in particular to its excellent balance. The rear of the stock provides easy access to the battery compartment via a flap. This space is large enough to accommodate the largest batteries. The trigger is fitted with a mechanical safety to reduce the risk of accidental firing. The rifle is equipped with fully adjustable original sights, but can also be fitted with a scope or red dot. The version 7 gearbox is made entirely of metal. It is mounted on 7mm bearings. It contains an M 110 type Spring which thus allocates good power to the rifle.

History:

The M14 was developed from a long line of experimental weapons based on the M1 Garand. Although the Garand was among the most advanced rifles of the 1940s, it was not a perfect weapon. Modifications began to be made to the basic M1 rifle design in the twilight of the Second World War. Changes included the addition of a fully automatic firing capability and the replacement of the 8-round 'block' magazine with a detachable 20-round magazine. Winchester, Remington, and the Springfield Armory owned by John C. Garand offered different designs. Garand's design, the T20, was the most popular, and T20 prototypes served as the basis for a number of Springfield test rifles from 1945 until the early 1950s.
