I picked up this rifle new shortly after I graduated highschool. It's been my favorite long gun since the day I purchased it and sadly has worn a very cheap scope for the majority of its time because broke college student. I decided to get my first arken and put it on this gun out of all of them that I own because it was high time I spoiled my old friend with nicer glass. It hasn't dissapointed. Now to get some more .223 to feed it because the first range trip was a bit too much fun and well semi autos do have a tendency to lead trigger happiness.
Yeah she's a bit of a relic that ruger only made for a few years. At the time it was cheaper/the same price as a fairly basic AR 15 so the choice was obvious. Hard to believe I've owned it so long with out decent glass on it. Happy I found old pre ban stainless steel 30 round mags for it so things all match when loaded. Mini 14's love em or hate em the target model is a bit of a showpiece. Thanks for the info on ammo.
Right now, Classic Firearms has the best deal you are gonna find on .223 ammo anywhere. They have a 1000 round case for $329!! I can't even reload for that!!
ah, one of the old Target versions, a well deserved upgrade
i have always loved the mini 14 just for what it is,
those are sexy
enjoy.
