Or when trying to hide from Colonel Decker. Always thought it was funny that since they were on the run from the government, Hannibal would wear crazy elaborate desguises when meeting new clients... but they traveled around in such a conspicuous vehicle.That van was so discrete when trailing a bad guy.
And still get it to shoot sub-MOA.And I am confident that the 14 or so "real gunsmiths" out there are thrilled with their Mini-14's. Knowing that your Mini-14 that you have painstakingly modified might be able to compete with the AR that someone with zero training or mechanical skill was able to assemble from parts.
And which may or may not blowup the time it is Fired and likely won't be able to shoot a Minute of Man group at 50'. And if it does hit the Bad Guy it doesn't mean he'll go down let alone stay down!!!And I am confident that the 14 or so "real gunsmiths" out there are thrilled with their Mini-14's.

The thing about the AR is that it doesn't require much skill to put together. Just a decent guide and tools. If I wasn't invested in building a FAL or two (and that I prefer retro builds) I could have built an AR for the sole purpose of getting sub-MOA groups with little effort beyond getting good parts.And which may or may not blowup the time it is Fired and likely won't be able to shoot a Minute of Man group at 50'.

I'll still take an M-14(not an M-14) over either one any day of the and an Armalite AR-10 if I can't have the Light Machine Gun(M-14).
I never said it couldn't be done but the average - uneducated/untrained AR builder - can easily spend twice the price of a Mini just trying to get the right parts.I could have built an AR for the sole purpose of getting sub-MOA groups with little effort beyond getting good parts.
Holy hopping cripes!
Y'all still on this?
If the military wanted them boys to all be snipers, they wouldn't be handing out them short barreled little things now would they?
This has been better entertainment than a missing number at a bingo hall for old farts!
Maybe try a Mossberg 500 thread next.You know, when I started this thread, it was simply because I came across the video I posted in the OP where the video stated the reasons that the Mini was better than the AR. I really couldn't agree with the video, but I do like both. What I didn't expect are the really intense feelings people have on this issue. You would have thought I asked what was better - 9mm or .45??
Really has been an entertaining thread. I don't get the intense hatred/dislike some folks have for particular guns. Heck, I'm just happy when I have guns I like that work well. Crazy stuff.

Prolly get some of the Mini 14 blunderbuss crew in on that one too.
Crap, I'll never make governor.
"Who dat ?"That van was so discrete when trailing a bad guy.
Don't need to spend twice the amount of a Mini to get the right parts. That aside going to comment on the bolded parts.I never said it couldn't be done but the average - uneducated/untrained AR builder - can easily spend twice the price of a Mini just trying to get the right parts.
AND that doesn't take into account the hours of his/her time doing the "Built" but then their time isn't worth anything, anyway unless they're flipping burgers at the Golden Arches since that is likely their "Skill Set" according to you.
I've taught at least a couple dozen people how to Build/Rebuild/Repair ARs while I was on Active Duty because that was my Profession and they have ALL turned out some Very fine Rifles but the basic problem was that every Rifle was still nothing but a .223 Remington/5.56 NATO and they weren't anything more than Varmint Killers.
That's all I have to say.
.300 BLK is clearly the superior AR round.Exactly etrain.
How about swapping it up a smidge?
6.8 vs?
Now there's a real cartridge.
