OP signs off, with thanks

Thank you all for the education. I will go and do my homework, but now, at least, I know a lot more to start with.

I checked out the M14 Firing Line Forum (http://m14tfl.com/). A lot to process through there!

I am pretty sure I will go with a modern, new-built SA model, then see how or if to improve from there. Better to walk before running, when you don't know where you're going.
