I'm not really a fan of the M14. Not very useful at closer ranges, and again very limited options (specific M14 scope, bleh!). Most of the M14s/M1s/whatever have absolutely appalling accuracy. That, combined with their pretty dang long recovery time doesn't make them very suitable up close.
Now, if you take the scope off a M14 sniper variant, you've got yourself a pretty good M14. I found no reason to ditch my M1 Garand until I found a bandit with a M14 sniper mod.. Despite the Garands incredibly slow recovery time, nearly every hit was an instant kill or guaranteed drop with a few seconds of bleeding out left.. 7.62x63 is just awesome.
Though I did notice the Mk14 EBR in the list. Slap a M68 on it, a laser for hipshooting... Maybe even a M203 even if the weapon allows it?
