Back when I was broke, and couldn't afford an AR, I stumbled on a good deal for a pre-ban stainless Mini-14. It is drilled and tapped for a scope, but it's not a Ranch Rifle.
Currently, it has a Butler Creek folding stock, and a couple of Ruger magazines (everything else sucks, IMHO).
It's not a solid shooter; 6" at 50 meters is about all I can get from it currently. I'm getting a bit older, and can't shoot iron sights like I used to.
Given the lack of accuracy, the lack of Ranch Rifle mounts, the fact that I now have a much more fun and accurate Rock River AR, and my stubborn unwillingness to sell firearms, what would you do with it?
I've considered shortening the barrel and adding a soldered brake to keep it legal, but that would probably cost more than I paid for it initially.
