These Ruger's are getting harder to find by the day. This is a brand new, unfired Mini 14 that's ready when you are. Ruger has done a great job improving the rifling and the quality of their barrels. Even the gas port works as it's supposed to. This has been the standard truck rifle for a long time now and it's a match for an AR any day of the week. Probably more than that. You can abuse and beat these rifles and they still keep right on ticking. Their reputation has been made and it's only gotten better. If your looking for a shooter this is it. I would say it makes a great home defense gun, easy to take care of, and will last forever. I had the trigger tuned and put in new Wolff springs to replace the factory springs. This is the model you want if you are ready to make some mods and turn it into a beast. I will ship if you pay the freight.
