It's an M1A civilian version of the M14

It's an M1A

Maybe even a Norinco 305. Looks like the flash eliminator is solid, no slots...let alone bayonet lug.

My Norinco is an "M14s"...an early one before the label of "305" came into use. Regardless, it has a normal slotted flash eliminator. Never to see the light of day again, unfortunately.

It's just a poor quality picture. The slots are there with extreme magnification.
