The M14 and M16 were both new rifles which debuted while the US was involved in Vietnam to some extent. The M14 is the battle rifle - the M16 is an assault rifle.
The M14 was designed as the T44 experimental rifle, an evolutionary step above the M1 Garand used during World War II, in 1954. It entered production in 1959. Production was halted in 1964 when the M14 was replaced on the frontlines by the M16 assault rifle.
