Wanted: Ruger Mini-14 .223 Stainless
I am looking for a Ruger Mini-14 in .223 Rem. stainless steel in decent condition. It can be either pre-ban or post-ban. It can also be either the standard Mini-14 or the Ranch Rifle.

How much are you willing to spend? I know a dealer that is picking up some nice trades from a Sheriff's Office locally. He will be picking up several standard stainless Mini's in good condition. Let me know how much you are willing to spend and I might be able to help you out. Email is [email protected]

I decided to just build me another AR-15 and save myself some money to boot. Thanks for all the replies. I may be interested in a Mini again some time in the future but it will be a while.

RE: Wanted: Ruger Mini-14 .223 Stainless
That is all too common a problem for the Mini's. Function flawlessly, but could not hit the inside of a barn, with all the doors closed. I am from NC. I decided over the weekend to just build myself another AR-15 variant, with a 16" SS heavy bull barrel, free float forearm, and few more extra goodies. I figured I could build an AR-15 with all the bells and whistles that I desire, for a few $$ cheaper than I could buy a Mini-14 and then have it rebarreled and accurized. I can have a .5MOA or better AR-15 just a tad cheaper than I could have a 1MOA or so Mini-14.
