Such an underrated weapon by the community. So many people swear by the FN FAL's smaller upwards recoil and option for Dual Mags and ignore the M14's neat advantages (Grip, exclusively vertical recoil, and having the default AR hip-fire spread).

@Bigboomar The guides lend a degree of structure to playing Black Ops. I actually quite look forward to the challenge of getting to grips with a new weapon every week.
@TheCavsman22 The less flinch is a nice bonus - but it's only a factor if you take incoming fire. Stay in cover and your opponent won't stand a chance of hitting you.
Your voice is so soothing, I've destroyed teams lately whilst listening to your voice, your class advice is actually amazing. You provide the insight needed to make the difference between a win and a loss. Thank you
M14 is really powerful if you can use it. It was hard to use at first but with practice I learned how to use it and I could use it effectively at any range. I also got double dogs with it which is really good for me as I'm usually bad in getting good killstreaks.
It's so nice to have someone who actually knows something about guns talking about them in game guides.You remind me of "TOP 10:Combat Rifles". Great videos, nice job.
That's the reason is Ahoy 10x better than the idiots who make guides today. They don't know jackshit. It's nice to watch someone who speaks the same language
The flamethrower is actually for killing multiple enemies quickly at close range(if you do not kill them quickly some will get away or manage to kill you, even if you come from behind).
Nah. That thing is a terrible rifle and it rightfully got replaced ASAP back in Vietnam, then again when it got brought out during the Afghan War. It loses its zero when too easily and the action needs constant rebedding to maintain accuracy. Not to mention the controls and design were outdated as before it was adopted. AK47, STG-44, and the AR10 were all older than it yet had more modern controls. Such a stupid design, only got adopted because of some absolute lunacy desicion making by the Army Ordnance Board. There's a reason they got disbanded after the faults from the M14 started rolling in and they decided to sabotage the AR15 right after when it was being tested for adoption as the M16.
That's what you think. The Suppressor actually make the M14 more covert and even though it has a bit of a damage drop off, it's not as severe as it is on other guns.
There is something I want to point out, the m14 is based off the m1 Garand, but it was its own rifle during world war 2 as a smaller carbine rifle, but as the m14 evolved, it is now become its own platform for rifles, and because it chamber the .308 cartridge, it’s still in heavy use as a marksman rifle used by the United States to this very day
I just now noticed that technically, the gun in-game is an M14 with the stock from an M14E2/M14A1 stock on it, the squad support variant that was considered in the mid 60s as something akin to the BAR, but abandoned in development
I love this gun. Many people think it's bad compared to fully automatic guns like the galil or famas but its damage and accuracy are high making this gun quite dangerous to fast trigger fingers.
superior to the fal in every way except for recoil, but the recoil isn't that bad anyways so it's not an issue. here's a really fun rushing class with it: m14 extended mag ballistic knife lightweight steady aim marathon/hacker (depends on the map and the opponents you're fighting, you generally don't need to sprint too long when you're inside of a building so marathon isn't essential) hipfire at shotgun range, aim at longer distances, and switch to the ballistic knife so you can stab people when rushing into buildings. the extended mag is so you don't have to stop and reload as often which means you can keep up your momentum.
Two things here: 1) I was aware that there existed a model of the M14 fitted with a pistol grip (the M15 or M14A1), but did NOT realize that it was the model for the M14 in-game. 2) Thank you for trying to be the first to illuminate upon me the truth, but you are the thirtieth person to tell me this.
@XxSlayerBeastxX Today we are covering the melee weapon the fork. It has been used since 972 and is a common eating utensil other than asia with its counterpart, the chopsticks. This weapon is used for melee and light-weight and has a high melee attack per minute. The perks I recommend with it would be light weight for speed, steady aim for its quick melee recovery and marathon for sprinting long distances to catch the enemy.
+Jamar Johnson It just feels nicer and that feeling can be mistaken for an actual increase in accuracy. I'd actually recommend not using the ACOG as it increases recoil in this game (it lowers it in Black Ops 2 and 3 however).
Second chance, how old are you? 3? Im assuming that on the gay ass load out and your previous comments being penis jokes. Flack Jacket, Sleight of Hand, Tac mask, Famas dual mag with gold camo, RPG, frag, concussion, C4
The M-14 is my favorite weapon. The large kick usually garentee's* head shots, and the iron sights are amazing. I usually just slap a grip on it because the suppressor never works for me.
the m14 had actually been fully automatic as well as pretty accurate when used in Vietnam, but they used something else since it was expensive to make as it worked a little too well than necessary. Or so they say, try looking it up on several sources.
It doesn't. It has a firecap: a limit to how fast it can fire. If you fire faster you oversample the weapon's fire rate and this theoretically reduces your rate of fire.
The other automatic assault rifles with low rates of fire are also one shot kills in Hardcore and are easier to use than the M14 and FAL so it wouldn't really have a special place there. The semiautomatic rifles just aren't well balanced in this game.
Not really. The Commando, AK47, and Galil do very good damage at range and are easier to use at long range, especially considering the recoil the M14 has without grip or taking your time between shots which. Ironically the M14 and FAL are actually better than the automatic ARs if you can land both shots needed to kill at close range. It's not really good tbh. Just unlock it and use it.
No, a magazine is the thing that feeds ammunition into the chamber of the gun, a clip is something that you use to put ammunition in a magazine really fast.
I am a huge M14 fan, and have used the FAL and SA58 OSW all over Black Ops II since the M14 is senselessly absent from the multiplayer and campaign selections.
I agree. Using irons means you dont have to use warlord with red dot which leads you to sleight of hand. Its one of the best if not the best gun in the game pared with grip.
If you really want to use an underbarrel or a non-warlord perk, try aiming a little below the head, on the second shot, if you time it right, your gun will be aiming right at their forehead. A little trick you learn when hopping around with an F2K.
That's because XboxAhoy used the real life model's silhouette in the video, but posted the in game Create-A-Class model's silhouette for the thumbnail. It's meant to show you what weapon he's talking about if you don't know the name, then showing you what it looks like in real life. Good eye!
Try this.First perk.Ghost.Second perk.Warlord.Last perk.Gas mask.M14 with grip and silencer.Secondary Makarov.Equipment Tactical insertion.Try it.Best with close range
the commando used in black ops is actually an early variant of the M16 with an 11.5 inch barrel and i believe the M4a1 is the 4th major variation of the Commando and the second modification made to the M4 carbine
This was my weapon of choice until I unlocked the FAL, which I used from then on, since it didn't need the grip attachment and could use the suppressor. See, I would always attach the ACOG, Red Dot, or Reflex scopes to my weapons (excluding sniper rifles, where I usually attached the Variable Zoom scope), since I'm generally bad with iron sights.
@ThePMRadio I feel the same mate. but the reason people use other weapons, instead of the M-14, like the Famas and the AK-74u is because those weapons are much easier to use with little practice required to get good with them. also the M14 has a higher damage multiplier to the head then the FN-FAL plus the M-14 looks much better and is much more satisfying to use.
Woo, this weapon and the M60 are amazing. I miss them. In every game so far there are a few guns that are really fun using, these were the BO ones (as well as the python with an Acog :) )
Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare had 2 claymores, which came in handy when you had 2 entrances to cover. This, however was not carried over to the other call of duty games unfortunatly. They should have added this to the claymore level up option, say you get 75 or 100 kills with a claymore and you get an extra one added to your loadout.
They were all Full Auto but you are right they would often try welding the fire selectors to keep the regular Assault Gunners on Semi-Auto while the Support Gunners were allowed Full Auto.
At 8:17 you killed 'ben the don.' I wonder if he and I are related. Since Baldo_the_Don is not my meatspace name, it seems unlikely, but if I can premise a joke on the idea, I'll do that, won't I?
As a consistent m14 user, I suggest the grip with hardened and hacker. Also the suppressor with soh, like xboyahoy said. First perk hardline and flak are useful.
I love Ahoy’s scripts.
“The M14 isn’t ideal up close but the under-barrel attachments aren’t really a solution.”

M1 carbine is not the m14. I think the m14 replaced the Garand in 1958 and wasn't used in WW2. The M14 was short lived as that was replaced in 1965/66

Your videos really make me rethink the way I play CoD.

They should have made another weapons group in the game for the M14 and FN FAL because they don't fire automatically like the actual assault rifles.

Malvinas lol
that's because there not, there actually battle rifles in case you were not listening :/
so... like the marksman rifles in ghosts?
termo juan Its the Falklands not the Malvinas you fucking creature.
By the way the M14 shares almost the same clone and color of the FAL.....I always go with the M14 in multiplayer while for FAL in zombies......
Probably the ammo of the gun is low but high damage....
superior to the fal in every way except for recoil, but the recoil isn't that bad anyways so it's not an issue. here's a really fun rushing class with it:
m14 extended mag
ballistic knife

hipfire at shotgun range, aim at longer distances, and switch to the ballistic knife so you can stab people when rushing into buildings. the extended mag is so you don't have to stop and reload as often which means you can keep up your momentum.

why don't you use reflex sight on the m14 cause my experience with black ops it will decrease recoil.
It doesn't. It just makes aiming easier because you get a cleaner picture than with iron sights.
Charlie WithaQ oh well some NOOB at black ops told me that it decreases recoil.
+Jamar Johnson It just feels nicer and that feeling can be mistaken for an actual increase in accuracy. I'd actually recommend not using the ACOG as it increases recoil in this game (it lowers it in Black Ops 2 and 3 however).
Charlie WithaQ I tested it and I their is no increase or decrease in recoil ( all guns that have the reflex sight and took me about a hour)
+Jamar Johnson The reflex doesn't change recoil; the ACOG does.
Just equipped this and went 30-0 😂 not even kidding.
You know of you say: Not kidding 😂 People tend to not believe you

what is the mod limit or the point at which M14 will jam to counter modding
It doesn't. It has a firecap: a limit to how fast it can fire. If you fire faster you oversample the weapon's fire rate and this theoretically reduces your rate of fire.
The firecap is 0.096s (625 RPM); fire more than once in that time frame and the firecap will reduce your fire rate.
If you can fire the trigger faster than 625 RPM it will make the gun "jam"
