If you think guns are sexy, you need to get a life. I'm obssessed with guns, but sheesh, that's like say "That tree trunk is pretty sexy."

No, I'm tired of people say guns are "sexy". THEY ARE A MATERIAL OBJECT, NOT YOUR WIFE. See my point? Yeah, some guns are cool, some are sweet, some are tight, some are narly, some are totally awesome, but no gun is sexy.....

I bet you could get a decent target bolt action for what you pay for that thing.

If you are into Mini-14's, I guess it is alright. You can get a decent bull barrel AR for about the same money. The AR would likely be more accurate. Just my personal opinion of course. Can you tell I am not a fan of Mini-14's?

Mini 14's are a fun gun to shoot. True it's not an AR, it never will be. but fun non the less. There are tons of aftermaket stock kit you can for em. but that'll be up to you if ya wanna spend it. Can buy hi cap mags for your mini just like you can an AR. But don't ever expect it to be a sniper rifle. Loved my Mini when I had it, suspect you will too.
Also leave it to Billy to find a sexy tree trunk

I see they are not "approved" for California. I just found a beautiful Colt Gold Cup for sale at a Texas gun store. LNIB condition with wooden display case....not "approved for California"
My God will it never stop!!

Izat why you're called E Z? Pencil what in hand?
(This is mean't to be funny, not insulting, Nyuk!)
And Billie, is that why your pic looks confused?
Sure would be nice if it shoots like it should. If Ruger says it will, it probably will.

The Mini 14 shoots great. I gotta few aftermarket gizmos, a higher cap mag, a decent scope and its one great gun. Varmints tend to agree.

It will only stop when you move! I have to admit though, you guys have some nice weather. I was out there a month or so ago - really nice weather - pretty country too. Too bad it is not part of the good old USA! If you every want to immigrate to the USA, let us know. We will vouch for your character. Good luck.
