The only reason to own a Mini-14
is if you're stuck in Commiefornia or some other ban state that won't allow an AR-15.
With the prices on AR's right now, they are even cheaper than a Mini. Never mind the magazine issues, accuracy issues, accessory availability, etc.
I suspect that the most inaccurate AR I've ever had would outshoot the best Mini I ever had, and I've had several of each.
It's a shame, because I love the looks and feel of a Mini.
