M25 "White Feather" Tactical Rifle

Is that in honor of Carlos Hathcock?

From Springfield Armory's website:

The M25 White Feather™ Tactical/Carlos Hathcock model M1A™ utilizes the Springfield Armory threaded, rear-lugged receiver, M-14 magazine, Low-Profile Custom Muzzle Break/Stabilizer and a Krieger Carbon Heavy Match Barrel with a 1:10 twist. In a special arrangement with the estate and family of Carlos Hathcock, each M25 White Feather receiver is engraved with likeness of Carlos Hathcock's signature, along with the White Feather logo.

id leave it the way it is, changing it especially if it is an original M14 (IE the real deal) then you'll become a bubba.

Both of mine are semi-autos.
One is built on a Springfield receiver and the other is built on a Norinco.

BTW, I have a new drop-in stock on the way from TROY that should be an excellent upgrade to any M14 type rifle.

Yeah....putting all of that **** on a classic rifle is kind of..eh...dumb.
Like taking an M1 garand and putting on a RAS and a bunch of 1913 rails with an aimpoint and vertical grip ...

Sadly I've seen that done to Garands....

Sorta off topic.
I remember seeing a photograph of an American Firefighter in Sarajevo holding an M-14 or old carbine providing cover from snipers.

[Basillicus]

It makes me always sad to see the most beautiful rifle in the world being raped like that...

I have to agree. You are going to ruin the resale value at the very least. If you feel the need to screw up a perfectly good weapon then buy a new model M1A from Springfield and screw that up.

If no one can talk you out of this desecration then at least keep all the original hardware and equipment and don't make any permenant mods to the basic rifle components so you can put it back together right when you grow up.

Sorry to thread-jack here, but we had the same issue with the old 303's some guys loved it in the full wooden stock, others went crazy and added Fibre glass stocks, etc etc,

I love the new versions of the M-14 looks kick-@$$, but you guys should keep a couple of the original versions, for the archives...
