​‪@JamesReeves‬ asks: Is the Mini14 obsolete? The Ruger Mini14 was introduced FIFTY years ago by Ruger. Developed by Bill Ruger and Jim Sullivan, two of the engineering greats, the Ruger Mini14 was a soso rifle when it was invented, and most people believe that it lagged behind as the AR15 caught on with civilian shooters. But many of you don't know that there have been multiple changes to the Mini14 BIG changes that have increased its effectiveness. But in this day and age dominated by the AR, is the Mini14 still practical to own? We look at reliability, durability, accuracy, and more in today's video.
