I don’t think so. It may have more in common with an AK but featuring a two piece piston.

A lot of people don’t realize the action of the Mini is based on the M-1 Carbine and not the M-1 rifle/M-14.

You can run a piston system in any AR these days, I'm looking at retrofitting a 7.62X39 AR with a piston system to reduce the fouling.
