MK14 Mod 0

"Those who complained about the M14's lack of attachments can rest easy. All manner of equipment needed for modern battles can be matched to this weapon."

- The Arsenal

The MK14 Mod 0 is an all-purpose battle rifle (however it is classified as an assault rifle in game) placed into the game on January 19th, 2012.

Overview
This MK14 Mod 0 is closely related to the M14 family, and has a bulky black and silver frame. The size of the frame can impede the player's view while the colors of the frame are capable of either blending in or standing out depending on the gear equipped by the player and the environment.

As an all-purpose assault rifle, the MK14 Mod 0 is capable of performing well at all ranges. The semi-auto mode has little recoil and is highly accurate. When firing in the full-auto mode the first four or five shots go straight up before becoming a small grouping, sometimes veering to the left or right before losing total control.

The high point of the MK14 Mod 0 lies in its versatility. Multiple firing modes combined with the high accuracy, damage, and medium sized spread allow the gun to be versatile on the battlefield. The lack of restrictions concerning attachments (magazines, scopes, and suppressors) add on to that versatility and allow players to fit the gun to their needs.

This gun is a strong 3-hit-kill similar to variants of the M14 or G36E. Damage drop-off is low and the range is high, performing on par with G36E. Tap firing is easy to control with both firing modes.

If you compare this gun to G36E/M4A1 it is more portable (+4/+1) and inflicts more damage (+2/+9) than both, and it has a rate of fire (+2/-4) and recoil (-3/+1) better than G36E but worse than M4A1. The draw speed is above average, but the reload speed is average.
