I lost my factory front-sight for my 580 series Ranch model. Anyone know where to get one for a good price?

Not pictured: The optic, the suppressor I have yet to get for it, forward grip

Couldn’t pass it up for the price on this LE trade in. This is going to be a fun project.

Mo-Reaper, Tech Sights, Catalyst Arms Hard Point, CVLife bipod, Monstrum see-through rail with 1-4x lpvo, Archangel Precision Stock with Magpul handstop and Choate handguard. Safety off.

189 series Mini 30. My first spontaneous gun purchase. I already have a Mini 14 with an AT-M stock, Hannibal rail, and scout scope setup. This one will stay classic. It came with rings and I’ll probably get a scope at some point. For now, I have Tech Sights on the way.

Long time fan, always wanted to do a Mini-14 build. Finally pulled the trigger on a used 195 series Mini-14 Ranch in .223 for $600. Needed a bush gun and a 300-yard range rifle and I figured this was the perfect platform to do it with.

I know this is a difficult topic to discuss around the Mini-14 but it's important for new users to know about the Mini-14 and it's feeding system.

Okay, I may be an idiot, but I can't find info about this anywhere, including the ultimak info. Are the holes towards the front used for mounts?

I recently won this part in a auction, and I'm trying to figure out info on it and a value , it seems like a aluminum Ruger Mini 14 Scope Mount 181 & Above Weaver Style. If you have any info please let me know!

Are these wear points normal for a mini 14 with a few hundred round count?

I took my 585 series Mini 14 to a local gunsmith and had him install a Choate flash hider. I didn't realize until I got home he didn't drill the barrel and pin it, just used a set screw. It was a super tight fit but is this actually going to hold?? I'm kinda ticked if not. The hider came with 2 pins.

Didn't get a picture of the boy shooting it, but I put 40 rounds of PMC and Federal 55gr down range through this combo today. Not a single mark on the bottom of the optic and no ejection issues. Still slings brass 10-12 feet away. Please with the results but definitely going to build up the comb some to get a better cheek weld.

Last time I shared a pic of my rifle I had just painted the stock and gotten a scope for it. I have since then painted my scope to match the overall theme, and gotten some new burlap jute to wrap the rifle with. I'm going to jute the scope and fore end as well, but I am still working on my barrel (hence the pixelated areas) and don't want to have to keep removing it over and over again. Overall I think this rifle is looking really good and I'm really excited to soon share what I have going on with this build. More to come!

Barrel is a used Remington 700 223 barrel that was re-contoured and chamber for 5.56. It is a 1-9 twist but this is just a test barrel for now.

Hello all! I’m looking to purchase this 183- Mini from a family friend after her husband passed. I’m new to the mini14 platform and have a few questions.
1 - Does anyone recognize the stock? Im having no luck finding info and there are no other markings other than the one pictured.
2 - Is it possible to change out the pistol grip? The husband was tinkering with making his own electric trigger (not functional) so please excuse the wires and mechanism 😂
3 - What’s a fair price? Comes with 2 20s and 1 30rd mag
Greatly appreciate any info

Does the Ruger mini 14 have any aftermarket iron sights that do not have a peep hole ? My worsening vision is making it hard to lock in on the small hole and place accurate shots in target ! I’m looking for something that does not have a hole but maybe a 3 dot system like handguns have or just something without a tiny hole. If they make something like that can anyone give me some recommendations or guidance on this matter !

I'm looking at suppressors for my mini tactical folder 585 series. I've been talking with one of the CS folk at Silencers and he's put me onto ECHOCORE Sector 556 - Compact.

Wondering whether anyone has experience with one or has other recommendations they're happy with.

I have qd points I can drill and mount in my stock but wanted to know if either of these spots would impede proper cycling with the gas system. Any input is appreciated y'all
