Please don't beat on me right away as I have no experiance with a Mini 14, but all i seam to read about is...
Very reliable, good cheap gun, but very inaccurate.
Acutally, I've mostly heard alot worse, but I'm perplexed. If these are such bad guns, why has Ruger been making them since 1976, and continue to make improvements? In Cabela's and other sources there are plenty of accessories and parts so I have to imagine that there is a following. Looking over the specs, it seams like a very versatile arm with lots of options.
So... why hasn't anyone figured a way to make this gun shoot like an AR? Maybe a new barrel, or truing the action, or trigger upgrades?
I'm very interested in this gun, but I'd like to get some real feedback, and not just AR loving, Ruger Hating feedback.
Thanks in advance and shoot safe.
