PSC 0 Posted December 16, 2003 I'm working on this M1A-A1 for my dune buggy crew: And my question is, does it have 2 fire modes like full auto and single shot? Or does it just have one fire mode, some kind of slow full auto? Regards, PSC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoOB 0 Posted December 16, 2003 I think that some of these have full auto modes. Like with the M14's used in Vietnam, I belive some had full auto modes and some did not. But I would make it semi-auto only as I think that was most common. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PSC 0 Posted December 16, 2003 semi-automatic magazine fed rifle Looks like it's just semi automatic. I thought it had an automatic mode like the M14 as well. As far as I know the M1A is some kind of commercial M14. And I think it's the A-Team gun. Dunno exactly though. M1A Link Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stag 0 Posted December 16, 2003 :putsanorackon: The gun used by the A-team was the Ruger Mini-14, which was basically a scaled-down M14 chambered for 5.56mm ammunition. The basic M14 (and I suspect the M1A you're talking about) was semi-automatic only. The M1A1 had a full auto mode but no burst, the M1E1 had a full auto mode, heavy barrel, inline stock and bipod, and you know about the M21. :takesanorackoffandwandersaway: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKM 0 Posted December 16, 2003 That rifle looks like an M-14 with modifications, such as the prominent folding skeleton stock. Perhaps it is an M-14 variation for special-operations and paratroop units, vehicle crews as well... I find it hard to believe that there would be a fully-automatic feature on an M-14SK-ST (Skeleton-Stock) like that, as the majority were jammed down on Semi-auto all the time... that rifle there would seem uncontrollable in full-auto modes of fire.

GoOB 0 Posted December 16, 2003 The A-team most often used the "AC556s" if I remember the name correctly (it is mentioned in a few of the A-team episodes) I think it is the full auto version of the Ruger mini 14. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stag 0 Posted December 17, 2003 My mistake; the full rock and roll M14 was produced in limited numbers; the beast I thought was the M14E1 was actually the M14A1; with its obvious differences, it was intended to replace the BAR as the M60 was intended to replace the M1919 series.

Blink Dog 0 Posted December 17, 2003 Have you considered using JAM for that weapon and having it function like the M14 they included but using your model instead? I'm definately looking forward to pack 4 I'm using packs 1-3 for my current mini campaign Operation Valkyrie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
