Thanks BBBBill, couldn't remember the name of the commercially made one, being the cheap, I mean frugal kinda person I am I just made one.
That makes it a 3 inch gun at 100 yards. That is good to go as per Ruger. The Mini's are not target rifles.
kwg
First thing I would have done.Possibly a stupid question,but;Did you disassemble the bolt and clean out the firing pin channel?
This is the ONLY video I could find on the actual bolt disassembly!
If I recall correctly, it's similar to the M-1 Garand
Did you oil the slide and the rail? Oil on bolt head?I took the bolt apart and cleaned it, replaced the hammer and recoil springs, and spent some more time cleaning the chamber. No more failure to fire. However sometimes it won't feed a new round or it will get jammed on the way it. It happens with a Ruger magazine and an aftermarket magazine.View attachment 961365View attachment 961365 View attachment 961366
No it’s a piece of 1 1/4 steel shaft I bored out to fit my 9/16” mini barrel. It was a quest I followed to see if I could make my mini shoot MOA. It worked!Is that an aluminum sleeve? What holds it on, is it vented for cooling?
Sorry, it has three Allen setscrews located 120 degrees apart at muzzle, but only one Allen setscrew at gas block because I was in a hurry to test it! Shame on me!Is that an aluminum sleeve? What holds it on, is it vented for cooling?
If you look close you can see one muzzle Allen screw.
I can see it. You also shouldn’t leave the key in that chuck.
I suppose leaving one in there to hopefully just fly out is still better than trying to hold onto one...
