"Ruger Mini-14 Ranch Rifle. A lot of people who saw what recently happened in New Orleans have concluded that every man needs an assault rifle."

Too bad the Mini-14 isn't an assault rifle.

No matter what it looks like, no rifle you're going to buy without "special dispensation" from the BATF is a real "assault rifle". No full auto or burst capability - no assault rifle.

If someone's got some breath to waste, he may want to pass that little nugget along to the likes of Feinstein, Schumer, etc.

"Too bad the Mini-14 isn't..."

Years ago during a show, I spotted a Mini-14 Ranch on a table with a $1500 price tag.

I asked the guy what was so special about this this rifle and he said to look on the side. There was a selector switch. This was the first Law enforcement version I had seen.
