bro not too long ago there's a video of USAirsoft demonstrating a m14 at an Evike store and that WE M14 didnt have the front iron either. I think that unit and the unit you recieved are the aame one. It's on the USAirsoft channel shorts, just after the stainless steel AK short. I think evike intentionally sold you a used/incomplete/sample product.
Evike does this a lot actually. They would remove the original muzzle device and sell it separately, the only replica I got from them that actually came with the original muzzle device was the we aks74un.
@@OtakuGekko Definitely worth doing. You would be shocked how dirty they can be from the factory. I just got a WE XM177 and it took 3 separate goes until it was clean.
I think that orange tip issue is a distributor thing, because I got my we tech m14 from another airsoft shop and when they brought it up to me they showed the the gun and it had that same orange tip, the only issue I have with mine is that every time I fill my mag with bbs and gas, I put the mag in, caulk the gun and gas leaks everywhere
this m14 short was at a evike store in Texas, no front iron and really poor perfor!anace, possibly a lemon. Which is suspiciously similar to the m14 you recieved ru-vid.comjDwqZ5PYZn0?si=7ucqD-hypgG9B6DM
