If you're used to shooting a mouse rifle(AR15), then try a Rifleman's Rifle(M14), there is a learning curve, that most will not put in the time and effort to master it. Then some of those who don't master the M14, will slam it as an inferior weapon, etc., in truth, they probably couldn't handle a BB gun.

As late as 2009 the Navy had a few M-14s on each ship. They were used as line throwing guns, and I would suspect the M-14 is still filling the line throwing gun role today.
