[QUOTE="Fyrtwuck, post: 2499578, member: 23"] I've owned several mini's and they were very good reliable rifles. They have two weaknesses that I can think of. Availability of parts. If something breaks, it goes back to Ruger and they can fix it as long as they still have parts for it. I think it was two years ago that Ruger said they would no longer work on their AC556 full auto model. They ran out of parts and have no intention of making any more. Magazines. Mini's prefer factory magazines to work properly. 20 round mags were all you could get for a long time. Even before the 1994 ban, Ruger would only sell 30 rounders to LE. If they ever made a mag well to fit AR magazines, they probably couldn't keep them in stock. If I could find one of the GB models at a decent price, I'd get one. [/QUOTE]
