WE M14 Ra-Tech wood kit

That means "Oh wow" lol

Walnut is a VERY nice wood... Just look at that grain in it!!

Ya, I see that it is very nice looking! Having a real semi auto 5 rounds M14 I would invest that money, 350$, without hesitation. But when you think of it, the walnut wood stock is almost the same price of a WE M14. It's like buying a 400$ LaRue tactical AR receiver at 400$ to put on a 350$ complete WE gun. But having a lot of money and not knowing where to throw it I would

Do you have just the one or do you sell wholesale? Definitely looking for a stock inside the borders (if you have anymore). Do you also happen to know if the wood stock helps at all with the rattle in the assembled gun? I have heard the ebr kit does help get rid of it, but my synthetic wood stock seems to be an imperfect fit.

The wood stock is a tighter fit than the polymer stock. I ordered mine direct from RA-Tech www.ratech.com.tw/. The polymer stock tends to round out inside where it contacts the reciever and this is why the reciever moves back and forth. The EBR doesn't rattle but obviously it doesn't have a sling mount like the stock M14 stock. I have the WE RA-Tech Lv 2 M14 EBR and another WE RA-Tech Lv 2+ converted to SOCOM 16.
The rattle I think you are talking about is the front sling mount, so putting a sling on it or taping it or removing it will help with that.

Considering a USGI M14 stock either in Birch or Walnut can be found for less than 50$, that's kinda expensive.

You can fix the receiver movement by folding a bit of tape where the polymer stock got rounded.

I didn't pay what the OP paid they have come down in price since. I was ordering a bunch of stuff from Taiwan so I got that too.
But yeah I know you can get M14 stocks cheaper and when I go walnut on the next M21 build it will likely be USGI.

Which is Priceless!

The Ju wood is actually Beech (Southern Elm) which is resistant to being permanently submerged in water apparently.
