thanks for all of the advice. i would love to get an AR, but for now i think that a good used mini 14 will be a good plinker to drag around with me. but if i could get into an ar for only a few hundred more....

i'm thinking about getting a mini 14. it seems like it would be a good little gun to pack with me on the farm, to blast yotes. what are your thoughts on the mini 14, and what should i look for when i find one. thanks
