I love my Mini. The accuracy on mine isn’t that bad. I don’t often use it beyond 50 yards and just use the iron sights, but it puts ‘em where I want ‘em for the most part.
Were I a Biden family member I would not take Crazy Joe to the local mall unless he was properly bungie-corded.
I’ve seen a pre-03 Mini-14 that came from the factory unable to consistently hit inside a 15” circle at 100 yards from a machine rest let alone the shoulder. It was sent back while Bill Ruger was alive; the reply from the factory was that the rifle was working within tolerance and there was nothing wrong with it.
I continue to wonder what Bill Ruger’s acceptable accuracy spec for the Mini-14 was - minute of very large barn?
If I am using a rifle, I don’t want it putting rounds where I want them (to the limit of my user skills) ‘most of the time’, I want it doing it all the time. Under 50 yards, I’ll take my Saiga 12 instead. It’s more accurate and being a shotgun it’ll put way more metal on target be it shot or slugs. :P
Were I a Biden family member, I would be filing a red-flag report against him about now.
They edited the quote. It was actually: “..... to which Biden replied, “Don’t tell me that, pal, or I’m going to go out and slap you in the face.”
‘The A-Team’, a ‘crack commando unit’, used Mini-14s, fired 1000+ rounds per episode, and never hit anything!
They can have my AR-14 and my AK-71 . . . ammo first . . . and then only when they pry them from my cold, dead hands.
It’s the Indian, not the arrow.
Yes, he had an idiot work on it and now it doesn’t run.
Most ‘worked on’ Saigas are more like this:

And even stock ones are like this, if you didn’t get one of the (thankfully few) bad batches:

Per the post-Bill Ruger Ruger management, the pre-05 Mini14 *is* inaccurate - not the Indian’s fault in this limited case. :P
That's why I leave things stock. I only ever allowed two people to touch my horns for minor adjustments and such, and they both knew what they were doing.
I fully expect him to start flinging poop at people before the convention.
Biden can have all of my AR-14s, but I’ll keep my 15’s, my Mini-14 and everything else.
Great. Now that theme song will be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. Thanks for that.
My pleasure. I have Rush ‘Freewill’ going in my head, from a thread about choosing not to vote. 8~)
I smoked a bunch of coyotes with mine!
“Typical” huh? I’ve got 5’s, 10’s, 20’s and 30’s and many more 10’s and 20’s than 30’s.
LOL!!
No it’s Operation Chaos.
I did my part. Just voted for crazy Bernie. Had to take a shower right after though.
