Federal Ordnance - Serial Number vs Model Number

Federal Ordnance had several model designations for its M14 type rifle. Given sufficient time and enough serial numbers, we may be able to discern some reasoning or order to the model numbers. If you would like to contribute to this, send me a PM. I'll delete your PM and not disclose the source. Like the other data bases that I have compiled, I DO NOT share who sends me what and I don't keep the correspondence. If you find a Federal Ordnance receiver heel photograph on one of the auction boards, send me the link. TIA

I'll start this data base with serial numbers and model numbers I have observed first hand or have photographs of. Note that Federal Ordnance made receivers for Century Arms International as well.

Federal Ordnance had several model designations for its M14 type rifle. Given sufficient time and enough serial numbers, we may be able to discern some reasoning or order to the model numbers. If you would like to contribute to this, send me a PM. I'll delete your PM and not disclose the source. Like the other data bases that I have compiled, I DO NOT share who sends me what and I don't keep the correspondence. If you find a Federal Ordnance receiver heel photograph on one of the auction boards, send me the link. TIA I'll start this data base with serial numbers and model numbers I have observed first hand or have photographs of. Note that Federal Ordnance made receivers for Century Arms International as well.
