	~~=HISTORY=~~		'''M14''' is an American select-fire battle rifle chambered for the 7.62×51mm NATO cartridge. It uses a gas-operated, rotating-bolt action and feeds from a 20-round detachable box magazine. It is best known as the transitional U.S. service rifle between the [[M1 Garand]] and the [[M16A1]], and for later use as the foundation for accurized marksman and sniper variants such as the [[XM21]].
	~~The~~ M14 is an American ~~produced and became the standard~~-~~issue~~ rifle for the U.S. ~~military in 1959 replacing~~ the [[M1 Garand]] ~~rifle in the [[U.S. Army]] by 1958~~ and ~~the U.S. Marine Corps by 1965 until being replaced by~~ the [[M16A1]] ~~rifle beginning in 1968.~~
	~~The M14 served~~ as the ~~basis~~ for the [[XM21]]

			==HISTORY==
			The M14 was developed from the late-series Garand family of experimental rifles, culminating in the T44 program and adoption as the U.S. Rifle, 7.62mm, M14 in 1957. It was intended to modernize the Garand concept with a detachable magazine, NATO-standard 7.62×51mm ammunition, and selective-fire capability, and production rifles were manufactured by Springfield Armory and U.S. contractors. In practice, the rifle provided strong accuracy and range in semi-automatic fire, while full-automatic control was difficult in a full-power cartridge, shaping how it was typically employed.

	~~<gallery mode="packed" heights="400px">~~		In the Vietnam War era, the M14 saw extensive use in the early years of U.S. involvement before lighter 5.56mm rifles began replacing it in front-line infantry roles. Even after standard-issue replacement, M14 rifles continued in training, security, and specialist roles, and selected rifles were accurized and adapted into designated marksman and sniper systems, including the XM21/M21 lineage.
