Mini 14 beats an AR15 any day

AR-15 rules!!

lets be honest here. you own, run or are associated with a business that sells accessories for the mini 14, so you made this thread so somehow the topic would come up so you could bring up your business. right?

Yes and No, just wanted opinions.
The first AR15 I owned, after wanting one for 25 years. Broke.
I opened the action and I was examining the trigger group, i had my thumb on the hammer and released it and let it go the last 1/4" or less and the impact from that broke the bolt hold open lever, it just popped off in 2 pieces.
I still like ARs but honestly they aren't the only gun worth owning IMO.
BTW Mister T is a good guy and the other 2 guys who shot Minis in that show were white, like me.

That's Operator ERROR, not the firearms fault, or poor construction.

You shitter clogs up and overflows. You going to start an OUTHOUSE is better than INDOOR PLUMBING thread.

Just look

And if needed I can make it 'look' tame enough as to not get a 2nd look from even the witch Fienstien.

Everything about this rifle screams "tapco" to me... in case you didn't know, Tapco is a waste of money (IMO, of course...).

What threw up on that?

How much $$ you have tied up in that rig?

Look, I've always really wished I could like the Mini 14/30 because I do like the M1A/M14 (even though there are better semi auto .308s) and the M1 Carbine, so I'm not trying to be a dick here. If you're happier with a Mini 14 over an AR that's fine but to say that the Mini is a better gun than the AR overall is just factually incorrect (once you set aside purely subjective nonsense).

Oh well I guess this means we'll all have one less person to compete with next time there's an AR buying frenzy.

I don't know about this OP. The A-Team used these all the time and they couldn't hit Shit with them. The stainless mags were nice though.
