580 Mini-14 blued/wood with 'smith work, extras

[TULIP]

I'd like to get out from under debt this year, so I'm cleaning the fun stuff out of my safe, and my beloved Mini is up for sale.

I bought the rifle new last year and only had around 200 rounds through it before I sent it off to the GunDoc at Great West Gunsmithing for his Package B. For $360 I had John do the following to the rifle:


Trigger job (sweet trigger!)
Bed stock
Recoil buffer
Gas port bushings (factory currently installed)
Barrel cut (~16"), crowned and threaded
GWG supplied DPMS Levang muzzle-break, installed


I installed an Uncle Mike's swivel stud for Harris bi-pod use, and the ONLY issue with this rifle is it's a bit off center; however, my Harris bi-pod mounts fine on the rifle.

Comes with manual, facotry 5-rnd magazine, two (2), LEO 20-rnd Ruger magazines, gas port bushings and factory rings.

Photos forthcoming in the next couple of days...just wanted to get this up. I am located in Pullman, Washington and am willing to conduct a face-to-face transaction (cash only, please). Please PM me with ANY questions. Buyer to pay shipping and any FFL fees. Postal Service money orders only. Asking $700.

How does it group at 100 yds off a rest?? Do the groups tend to "wander" after the barrel heats up??
Any pics?

Jeff,

Thanks for your post.

I put about 100-200 rounds through it plinking when I bought it, and shortly thereafter I sent it off to GunDoc, so it's never been on paper. I got it back some time ago, but I have yet to shoot it since I've gotten it back. Three young boys, a high maintenance wife and a busy job keep my attention, and I just haven't had the time (which is another reason it's up for sale). I do have a kitchen pass to go shooting this weekend, however, and I'll put a scope on the rifle and sight it in, shoot some groups and take some photos. However, if it shoots really well, I may decide to keep it. ;) As it is, I've got about $900+ into the rifle, not including the cost of the magazines.

No longer for sale. She turned out to be a sweet shooter...and I get emotionally attached. I should have sold it before I shot it.
