I just received my JAE-100 back from JAE after they did a minor adjustment to accomodate for my SEI scope mount. Customer service with JAE is AMAZING!! The stock was modified in just ONE day and returned to me the very next day! HUGE kudos to Lisa (the VP) over at JAE!
Lisa also informed me that all JAE-100 stocks that ship as of now will have this slight modification done. It was just a simple matter of having a slight longer cutout on the scope mounting side of the stock. Now my M1A is nearly complete. I just need to install my SEI GLFS and a new muzzle device and I'm pretty much done. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/NATO762/JAE100-G2-01.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/NATO762/JAE100-G2-02.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/NATO762/JAE100-G2-03.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/NATO762/JAE100-G2-04.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/NATO762/JAE100-G2-05.jpg |

WOW!!
Does the receiver drop right into the stock? Or are there any modifications required? |
|
She's a beauty! She has some glASS to boot
The photographs are very nice as well. Good luck with her. |
|
WOW!!!

Man...that rifle is seriously screwing up my priorities.
what to do? WBK |

Indulge me all for a second. Imagine if the Army in it's infinite wisdom, would just ditch the hideously expensive XM-110 in favor of an M14SE in the JAE 100 stock. Or consdier the SAGE ALCS for units where a more compact package is required. The weapons themselves would be converted USGI M14s...just like Ron Smith is increasingly doing now already for numerous units. Hmmmm....XM110 at how much v. M14SE w/JAE 100 for how much??? I wonder just how much the taxpayer would save. Wonder too, if anyone from DCD Fort Benning or ARDEC, et al has consdiered or is considering this alternative.

Shut up and stop making sense. Man, thinking like THAT will never land you a .gov job. LOL |
|
|
Hepcat85 -- Appreciate the kind words. Actually, I am a .gov (.mil) guy. However, my current duties don't have much to do with weapons acquisition programs, unfortunately. I do however, try my best to influence those who's duties are in the Force Modernization arena. And this particular concept is one I've spoken to a number of concerned individuals about at some length. Will it do any good? Who knows?
|
|
Yep, need statements are what gets those units their M14s converted/upgraded. No doubt about it.
|
|
ugh
this is the worst thread ever! eventually I get the feeling this thread is going to cost me around 4 grand |
|
Ha! Excellent post! I think you have costed that weapon quite correctly. |
|

Would be nice. I just don't think that it will ever pan out that way (though it would be fine by me if I'm proven wrong). There's just not enough ...what's the word...pork, or potential pork, involved with refurbing forty year old rifles that are already in the system, along with the various spares, even if the spares are getting short. Compared to introducing an entirely new rifle and all the different contracts that would go along with it. For every person showing how to save some money, there's several potential contractors twisting their Congresscritter's ear with "Those things are old and worn out, the Army shelved them in the Sixties for a reason..." etc. And, if the mil went back to a more widespread use of a rifle that was officially replaced in the 1960's, someone would get stuck with the task of explaining how something wasn't good enough 35-40 years ago but all of a sudden is good. There would probably be a few long retired four stars' reputations being soiled. Along with a certain still alive, shithead ex SecDef. I can already picture the line forming for passing the buck on that one. |

=== You must be reading my mind! That was a very well-reasoned post. Actually, one of the better posts I've read on these gun boards in quite a while. Indeed, the political costs for both serving senior officers in AMC/ARDEC and those long retired, as well as certain politicos/appointees would be manifest. Still, I must confess I know more than I'm letting on here (oh, the horror....). There are actually certain individuals within the "system" who are interested in such a proposal. Not so much as a wholesale alternative to the (X)M110, but rather a means to augment precision firepower at the squad through company level. Principally due to both fiscal concerns viz. the (X)M110 and overall budgetary constraints and the war's increasing drain on resources in general, there are a number of notable personalities in DoD and DA that would like to see something along the lines of a highly modernized M14 put forth as a baseline comparison during upcoming Operational Testing (OT) of the new KAC rifle this spring and summer. The recent combat successes of 2ID with their suppressed M14SE generated considerable official interest and impetus in that regard -- as well as those green suited naysayers who fear their rice bowls being up-ended! Having said that, there is more than a ring of truth to your comment about "not enough pork". As a .mil guy, I have seen it happen too many times: forget Below the Zone (BZ) promotion, Command Selection, Legion of Merit, or resident War College for promoting a "Legacy System", or worse....resurrecting a long "obsolete" system. This is not to mention getting your precious little Tiffany through Horsey College. The school house solution: Spread around taxpayer largesse. Still, I am not convinced as to the degree to which this paradigm still applies in defense acquisition politices. Thank God I no longer have anything to do officially with acquisition policies. In sum, the old war horse just might have a chance. Maybe. In that regard, the new JAE 100 stock might indeed prove to be another arrow in the M14 quiver. |

mach6, what about the spares inventory for refurbing and continuing with the m14? could you forsee a resumption in the production of usgi contract parts? |
|
|
I would love to see a Crazy Horse M-14SE (SASS) in this stock. |
|
You know there would be a better chance of the M14SASS becoming the rifle of choise if BJ Clinton didn't have all those spares demilled. |

|
--- Parts are being ordered, albeit in smaller quantities than I'd personally like to see. Just do a search of Fed Biz Opps. There are currently five M14 parts be requested by Rock Island, for example. Expect a significant number more in the near future. Now as for a Crazy Horse in the new JAE 100 stock -- that would be something to test, for sure. Perhaps that is even in the making... Oh and Clinton? Yeah, you got that right! |

Does anyone know if a REAR lugged receiver (Armscorp M21) will fit the JAE-100 stock??
Thanks, ~Will |

Yes it will fit. If it does not you can send it to the manufacturer and they will fit it for you. |

Seven, in your earlier thread it said you investigated a carbon fiber option from Mcmillan as an option.
DO you have any more information on that option. |
