However, the most obvious change was the switch from the Garand’s en-bloc clip system to the M14’s detachable box magazine system.Ĭomparatively few rifles representing the intermediary steps between the M1 and the M14 exist today while museums have a handful of examples from the U.S.

Lock time is reduced 35% from 8.5ms to 5.5ms which is as fast as a mil-spec hammer on an AR-15. The ShootingSight NM Hammer is machined from billet steel to be light weight, reducing polar moment by 40%, and optimizing geometry for speed. Especially in offhand shooting, if shots are broken as you are moving ‘off-target’, that time can cost points. That’s time during which the rifle is typically swinging off-target. Lock time is the time between when the trigger releases the hammer, and the hammer hits the firing pin.
