	~~<hr>~~		'''M14E2''' is a U.S. select-fire battle rifle variant of the [[M14]], chambered for 7.62×51mm NATO. It uses the same gas-operated, rotating-bolt action and 20-round detachable box magazine as the standard M14, but adds features intended to improve controllability in automatic fire. It is best known as the “automatic rifle” configuration of the M14 family, later standardized as the M14A1.

			==HISTORY==
			The M14E2 program was developed in the early 1960s to adapt the M14 for a squad automatic role without adopting an entirely new weapon. The E2 configuration incorporated an external pistol-grip stock with a forward grip, a stabilizing buttplate, and provisions for a bipod, all intended to help the shooter manage recoil and maintain control during automatic fire. The concept was later formalized with the M14A1 designation for the improved automatic rifle configuration.

	~~<gallery~~ mode~~="packed" heights="400px">~~		During the Vietnam War era, M14E2/M14A1 rifles saw limited field use compared with purpose-built belt-fed machine guns such as the M60. In practice, the full-power 7.62×51mm cartridge and the M14’s magazine-fed system constrained sustained automatic fire, and many users employed the rifle primarily in semi-automatic mode, with automatic fire reserved for short bursts when extra volume of fire was needed.
