Last night I got my new NRA Ruger Mini-14 from my FFL dealer and took it to the NRA Range. Pretty decent rifle right out of the box getting a lot of center-of-mass shots. Being a left-handed shooter I was happy to see that no brass ejected across my field of vision. The charging handle worked intuitively with my right hand and overall the rifle felt very solid (especially with that Hogue stock). After working my way through the manual's disassembly instructions I decided to post a visual accompaniment on YouTube. My initial feelings last night were that this gun is far more comfortable than my ARs. The magazine system is not as user friendly as an AR's and required me taking my eyes off target in order to seat the magazine properly. The absense of a flash supressor meant that a little 223 Remington had a lot of BOOM to go with it! Overall I think it's a fun little package and envision myself playing with it more at the range than most of my other long-guns.

  • can you tell me how much the NRA gold coin is worth in the stock?

  • @gasdorf

    It's actually not real gold. It's just a medalion (though since it hasn't tarnished it may be gold leafed) - I doubt it is worth very much. They sell similar medallions at the NRA store just down the road from me (I am fortunate enough to live 20 minutes from the NRA headquarters where you can also find the National Firearms Museum and one of the best indoor ranges within 30 minutes of anti-gun Washington D.C.!)
