    Mini-14 factory folding stock on a 581 series?

    wlemay I agree that the factory wood stocks are good looking. Finding one is another story. They are out there but command a premium price. I saw one on ebay a couple of weeks ago that went for a little over $500.00. I happen to own two factory folding Minis. One is an unfired 184xxx series...

    Gun guy syndrome?

    Quote "When the buzzer sounded I punched the target and knocked it over frame and all. I then drew and put two holes in the down zero area. The RO did not see it my way and I was given a five second procedural even though everyone got a good laugh." end quote Serious discussion but I must...

    mini 14

    Mtrmn You are correct. It did start that way. But I believe a review should be more as to highlight the positive of a certain product rather then tell you how bad it is. Comparisons are good but there is an air of negativity. I want to read how good the product as opposed to how bad the...

    mini 14

    Comparison It is amazing how a thread can start asking questions about a Mini 14 can evolve into an argument "Mini vs AR". OK I agree they are both semi auto 223/556. But it should end there as far as I am concerened. They are two different guns. I personally like the Mini platform. Doesnt mean...

    mini 14

    4V50 Gary.......The stainless folder has paracord wrapped aound the tube. It really feels good. I bought it that way. And yes the blued folder does have the side swivel. According to Ruger some folders did come with the swivel on the bottom. A quick call to Ruger and they can tell you when and...

    Ruger SR-22 Pistol Range Report

    I too bought a SR 22 pistol. Shot 200 Rem 525 Golden bullets. Had 2 FTF but they went the second time around. The 9/64 screw is tight and I will check it after every cleaning. It is a fun little plinker and I am pleased so far. I also have the SR 22 rifle. Now I have its little cousin :D. Cheap...

    Gun purchase ?????

    Has anyone bought a firearm just for the purpose of complimenting an existing firearm in your inventory. This is why I ask. I bought a Ruger SR 22 rifle a couple of years ago at a gun show. It is just a fun piece to shoot and own. Now to the present. Ruger just came out with another SR 22 in the...

    Driftwood.......I agree with your statement. I just assume unfired should mean "after it leaves the factory"...............Joe

    Show off your safe queens!

    OK I'll bite This belonged to a good friend of mine that passed away 3 years ago. I got this from his wife. I take it out once in a while and oil and clean it and think of him and smile. It has never been fired and I have another Mini 14 that I shoot a lot.............................Joe

    New SR-22 Ruger .22LR pistol

    Speaking of Taurus, the SR 22 is just about the same size as my 709 slim. The Ruger is lighter of course. I have a Galco IWB for the Taurus and the SR fits it like a glove.....................Joe

    New SR-22 Ruger .22LR pistol

    Just finished sending 200 rds downrange. Had a couple "fail to fire" but on the second try they did work. It had to be the ammo. Remington 525 hollowpoints. Got the sights dialed in. Not to bad for a small pistol as far as accuracy is concerend. Double action pull is long and heavy. With the...

    New SR-22 Ruger .22LR pistol

    Got one Just went to LGS and got one. The small grip and no extension feels OK. The larger grip and mag extension feels great. My glove size is a 10. If that is any indication of feel? Mine came thru Davidsons so I also got a life time replacement guarantee. The mag will not fit the "Ultimate...

    Kimber Ultra Carry II worth the effort?

    Recently purchased a Pro Carry ll used in very good condition. The all black sights for me were a problem. Took it to a smith owned LGS and they recommended the TRU GLO TFO sight made for the Kimber. Dropped it off,then went to lunch,came back and picked it up. What a difference :). The fact...
