Note that some M-14’s were retained for service well into Vietnam and beyond

They're currently being used in Afghanistan & Iraq too.

I shot Expert with one in Officers’ basic in 1968, finally bought an M1A in 1986, and have moved it ever since. Now it’s happy to have a little brother from the othe side, a VEPR II in cal. 7.62x39. Having plenty of mags and ammo for both, I haven’t had to participate in the current run.
