Springfield Armory still produces M14 clone rifles. They are in semi (full auto is inacurate anyways) and are called M1A1's.

Who made the m14?
There were 4 producers for the US military- Springfield Armory, H&R, Olin Mathieson (Winchester) and TRW. The civilian rifles (clones) are not the same as the true M14, and are made by several companies.
Can you use commercial 308 ammo in a modern M14 rifle?
Ammunition - USGI, Chinese and Taiwanese M14 type rifles are chambered for the 7.62x51 mm NATO cartridge (1.6350" GO, 1.6405" NO GO, 1.6455" FIELD REJECT). U. S. commercial M14 type rifles are chambered for .308 Winchester for the most part. However, many U. S. commercial M14 type rifles have USGI or Chinese M14 barrels threaded on their receivers. The commercial manufacturers head space their rifles to SAAMI specifications (1.630" GO, 1.634" NO GO, 1.638" FIELD REJECT). A U. S. commercial made M14 type rifle can use either .308 Winchester or 7.62x51mm NATO ammunition. This is because the headspace limits for .308 Winchester are smaller than for the 7.62x51mm cartridge as noted above. http://www.alpharubicon.com/leo/m14typeriflesd.htm

Does the USMC still use the M - 14 as a automatic infantry rifle?
The M14 is still in use in limited niche roles. Most of the M14s used by the Marine Corps have had the full auto capability removed, which makes sense, as just about all of the 7.62x51 battle rifles (M14, G3, FAL, etc) are just short of impossible to control on full auto.
