If you're adding stuff to a M14 to make it as ergonomic and scope friendly as an AR, might as well get an AR in .308.
Unless you can get an AR-10 like this one I'd say save up for a Rockola or LRB.
Of the battle rifles from the Cold War, I like the FAL and M14 most. FAL being cheaper (not costing $2k and all). And IMHO neither need much modifying beyond use of optics. And they're fine enough as is to hunt with if legal in your state. Most importantly, they both look good in wood.Now that I given my opinion as per the OP, what about an FN-FAL or even a M1 Garand? I've really come to love the FN's. I really like the adjustable gas system, and they are plenty accurate.
