Google: "Causes of doubling in M14 and M1 rifles"
Gus Fisher did a wonderful job of explaining it all. |

Awesome! Thank you as it appears it was my positioning on the rifle at a low to me rifle bench on an indoor range. Never had the problem before and I'll confirm it tomorrow in standing position with a better grip.

I got my SA M14 Loaded to double and triple by shooting on the bench and lightly pulling the trigger. I bumped fired it by accident . Shit my pants .

Bump firing... Squeeze and hold the trigger back, follow through so to speak, should stop it.

I've had a Beretta BM-62 action go off on bolt closure, if the M-1A also has an inertia firing pin or a problem with the firing pin, I suppose that would cause a double.

I have owned my Norinco since 1993, and shot a few M1A's as well. Never had it happen to me.

Yeah, mine also doubles occasionally. Especially if I fail to follow through on the trigger squeeze.

My Poly M-14s bump fired unexpectedly while I was in the sitting position and really focusing to hit some longer range targets. Nothing quite like a surprise double tap of 7.62X51!
I'm a little more deliberate with my trigger pull now! |

Been a while since I bump fired my M1a. It's fun to do for sure. Also expensive to feed.
a 50rd drum is a blast in one big burst. |
