Yes, the M14 rifle was issued as a designated marksman and sniper rifle during the Vietnam War and later conflicts. The M14 was equipped with scopes and modifications to enhance accuracy at longer ranges. While it was not primarily designed as a sniper rifle, its inherent accuracy and range made it suitable for such roles, particularly in the early years of the Vietnam War before the introduction of more specialized sniper rifles like the M21.
It and its replica were still used by China during WW II and even in Korean War. But not in Germany.
