Yep........New Ruger Mini 14 will have heavier barrels........ Bye AR-15s............. Just kidding............. I like Minis better though. To each his own !!!
Thanks I was wondering what the difference was. The only thing I noticed was the barrel is only .625" befor the gas block. why would it be .777" after the gas block and not before it, I cant see where that would help more than the whole barrel being .777" up to the point where it tapers down.
And lets not forget that the civilian AR-15 is not as well-suited for that purpose as the M16 fully-auto variant
