Introduction: K'nex - M14 Instructions
Hey guys and today for you M14 fans, I bring you instructions for the M14 that I reviewed back in September 2013. This is the second time instructions have been made for a M14.
Good Points
· Good Iron Sights
· Comfortable Hand Grip
· Very Realistic
· The Magazine Is Removable (Go To Step 8)
Bad Points
· Use Quite A Lot Of Cut Pieces (See Parts List)
· The Whole Gun Is Slightly Flimsy
· Doesn't Shoot Because It's Just A Model

You ought to make an M-1 Garand model, or an M-1 Carbine. They are awesome guns.

Great instructions for a great gun! Very clear and well done. Perhaps I will build it one day if I ever get more knex. I remember the day when I wanted to build Red's from his internal pics, (I wanted it to shoot) and then I came over here and found the parts list and discovered I didn't have nearly enough orange cons. Might be able to build it if I leave off some stuff.

Thanks Corgi, I buy all my K'nex from this website

I have seen the site for the USA before, and for most of the parts you can only get from Knex.com. But yeah, it seems you can get most parts in the UK from the user group.

This looks pretty nice, but my latest M14 is much more accurate looking, and more reliable when it comes to shooting: https://www.instructables.com/community/KNEX-M14-T4...

Thanks Red, I have look at it before and it looks good. To be fair, we have both have made two very good M14's with differences :)
Reply 8 years ago on Introduction
That is true, to a certain extent, but since I made both of them, I prefer the latter as opposed to the former.... XD

Yes, technically this is your M14 as I did build it from your internal pictures. In May i will be posting the Dragunov review and also I will be reviewing the KAP-40 that month, since you ask me back in August 2013 to review it.

I was just giving you a hard time, bro, no biggie. =D
