Now In Love With the Mark 14

When I started this prestige I thought I was done with assault rifles. My path to first prestige using mostly the scar l and acr was hell. So I've been using lmg's and my tokened mp7 for most of this prestige.
The other day I was out of ammo or whatever and I picked up a Mark 14. I wasn't very used to it since I use mostly full auto weapons, but I was intrigued and made a class for it.
Wow, it's great. If you haven't tried it you ought to.
Most notably it's a two shot kill at most ranges which is nice. In addition, one shot headshots are great. Two other things I love are the fact that it has almost no recoil, making long range kills extremely easy. Also, the first shot seems to give the target a huge amount of flinch, since it's almost as powerful as a sniper. I've seen people get hit by it by me in final kill cams and wow, they got lucky to land the follow up shot.
So my question is how many of you use this gun? What are your favorite profs and attachments?
I'm also trying to figure out whether to use a token on it. I'm pretty much deciding between it and the stinger. Tough choice.
first rule of the mk14.....don't talk about the mk14.
mk14 is usually a campers best friend to roast marshmellows on
hows that? its a precsion weapon. not a sit in a corner and spray and pray weapon. most campers i see either have a type-95 or an acr
just wrote that to ruffle somebody's feathers, i dont care how anyone plays, its your game
gotcha. i knew tht had to be a joke. lol
I go two attachments with rapid fire and red dot. Or rapid fire with silencer. I think it's a great gun for interchange.
What's up with rapid fire? Do you just have to have a fast trigger finger?
And don't worry. I don't camp. Patrol on some maps, but not camp
rapid fire removes the limiter.
Love the mk14 with a silencer and red dot! I don't understand how people use rapid fire though, doesn't seem like it does much. Best gun in the game ![]()
I've been using the silencer for the challenge, and I'm not a huge fan. It seems to take that one more shot sometimes to get the target down. Maybe I'll grow into it though
+1
I make liberal use of it myself, as well as the other semi-autos in previous CoDs. Knowing from experience the MK14 beats the rest.
The best attachment for it is the Suppressor, since it'll still remain a 2HK at fine ranges -- not to mention keeping the gnarly 1HK headshot multiplier. This is what I use for my objective class;
Primary: Suppressed MK14 with M320
Secondary: Stinger
Equipment: Bouncing Betty and Trophy System
Perks: Recon, Quickdraw and Stalker (All Pro)
Recon being mainly for the m320? Interesting.
I feel like the pro part of recon would be a bit useless since if you engage a target with an mk14 you should be able to double fire and finish them off. And then without tac grenades you can't paint as easily. But if you're good with the tube....
I don't know what first perk would be more useful though.
That is my usual set up for the MK14. Some times I'll substitute Kick w/ dual attachments and use the Red Dot and Silencer or Ext Mag and Silencer.
Yeah, since I can't pass up the Quickdraw + Trophy System combo, the Recon + M320 mix fulfills the flashbang niche. While a very specific purpose, I feel it's really only the first tier perk I can make the most of.
As for the Pro variant, that's debatable... there's of course the times when lag compensation kicks my ass, yet I'm able to get off one shot. Recon's there to make my life a little more bearable, lol.
Ssssh dont talk about the 14.
I love it and the Nerf Howlers will be along any time now.
exactly
I think I heard of those arent they some sort of monkey?
YEAH! Howlers thats the ticket.
I run iron sights with kick and a silencer..I unno i cant stand the red dots on it lol makes it look too bulky with the iron sights its almost like im holding my arm out pointing saying "die..die...die"
Like Benjamin Martin taught his sons, "Aim small, miss small". The MK14 is a great weapon for those who can keep cool and line up accurate shots.
Nah, before this they have to nerf Type 95, striker, and dual fmg;s
Please stop talking about this gun.... please.
I usually roll with the RDS and Silencer and .44 magnum side arm. It's actually a great choice for a stealth class. Since it is a precision gun, you're not wasting ammo firing a bunch to get a kill, which means you're less likely to be noticed by the other team.
think it was the 2nd gun i burned a token on! love it! like rapid fire / red dot and red dot/ ext. mags...
and won't go into the beastly setup...as the Nerfer's will be coming out of the wood work...
but a great gun it is.... and just as fun in real life too!
ACOG...
2700 kills with the MK, and I love it.
Ah bugger a thread about the MK14, the secret's out!!!!
Anyhow I love the iron sights on this beast, suprisingly easy to use at long ranges, I tend to run focus and silencer. I don't see the need for any other sight other than the iron ones, and focus saves you alot on gun vs gun battles.
I love my mini-sniper rifle ![]()
also my favourite gun... but now campers and n00b's will use it!!!! ![]()
