The M14...how much gayer can this gun get. Its the only gun i know that from a 1/4 mile away on full auto can head shot someone. There is never a reasonable explanation for getting killed from a distance when some moron is running with it on full auto. Get used to the M16 or something. This way if you wanna pop out from a corner you can use ur pistol and for long distances the M16 is unmatched.

i just run with my crosshairs pointin down a lil, id say maybe thier groin to stomach area.when you roll up on them with recoil and all you gonna eat thier chest up.you still get some headshots but i like mowin somebody full of lead, more gratifyin to me .if you want more head shots just aim about center mass(pectorial area of chest) and the recoil will bring it up just right.i just dont go for many head shots though cause in the military they teach you to shoot center mass to drop a biatch and in game it works the same so i dont mess with it.

On door entry(Breeching) the m14 some times gets caught on the door, I hate that. whne really up close run at angle to the right Or left , then use the rifle butt. Its better because you don't use up any ammo.



isnt this all single player crap. you cant butt them online. or at least it wont let me. wtf. i hate this game. too many newbs, and too many newbs thinking they are experts.

ok, here we go. another weapon tested.

the M14:

this gun takes 2 shots to kill. thats it. 2. for sure, not a guess. ive tested it. if you shoot the enemy it takes away MORE then half his health. if you shoot him agian. guess what, there goes the rest of it. if you are completely still and your crosshairs have shrunk to its idle size the first two shots will land right on top of each other. so, i recommend using this gun on full auto, but, dont lay on the trigger unless you have like, 3 guys in a tight hallway. in that case, just spray n pray.

if you have a chance [the person isnt looking] take a second to stop before fireing. i recommend using 2 shots in near all situations. but remember a headshot is a kill. leg and arm shots will take more then 2 shots. groin shots should drop him in one hit but they dont :P

if you are completely still and your crosshairs are shrunk to thier idle size, lay on the trigger and the bullets will shoot staight up in a uniform near perfect [if not perfect] line.

if you need SOME proof that what i have mentioned is true. the next time your guarding a base or what ever and you have time to spare, shoot 2 shots while remaining motionless. find a spesific spot on the wall where you can look at the grouping. you will see the deadly accuracy of the first 2 shots.

i know this sounds like a load of bull to some of you. but test it.

its true.

i didnt want this to seem as long as it really is, i didnt want to turn you off with lots of reading and say "screw this!"

also. try using your binoculars to snipe. thats right. its so unbeleiveably accurate, you can actually snipe with it. zoom in with your binoculars, center them on the enemy [its best to get use to this on socom 1 because their name pops up in the center like it would with an aiming reticule]. once you get the middle of these badboys figured out you take off your binocs and fire a single shot about every half second. this works best when the enemy is running in a straight line or absolutely still like snipers. they must get pissed getting hit from one side of the map to the other [chain reaction: seals start point to terrorist. Mixer, left from seals start point, up the stairs, find the ruined wall which is the only thing stopping you from falling of the edge, find the broken part of it that lets you see over it, put your binocs on and you should see the terrorist rooftop and the giant awning looking thing where the terrorist like to snipe from. you can usually hit them easy from one side of the map to the other.].

enjoy your m14.

remember, feel safe with this information. it is all tested and never guessed.
