It certain does all that...especially gets rid of the casings. I had one for years and finally asked myself why I kept a gun that shot groups 3X as poorly as my worst AR and threw my brass where it could never be found....in fact, I suspect NASA could use a mini-14 to put brass onto the moon if they tweaked it just a little more. Somewhere out there is a Lagrange point where all my 5.56 brass is orbiting together.
LOL!
Someone posted It’s more of a 50yd Gun?? Well ok..., but the problem with that is it’s using a several HUNDRED yard cartridge! You can buy a Keltec Sub2000 in 9mm that will compete with it within 50yds!
To those who have had one forever, inherited one or picked it up for a song & dance... COOL! However, brand new they are selling for $800-$1000. To buy one is overspending by several hundred dollars, when compared to its performance.
Just call it what it is. If ya want to spend the overpriced doe on one, of course that is your business. But just say it’s because you like how it looks, or feels. That is fine. But to insinuate it’s performance is anywhere CLOSE to an AR is insanity. They don’t even compete with CHINESIUM ARs, let alone something like I build.
Even an AK will match or surpass its accuracy, dependability & toughness. For many hundreds less.
But hey, we do LOVE wasting money & making excuses of why it’s worth it, LOL!
