What can you guys tell me about the history or features of the 189-94XXX Mini 30. I know it was manufactured between 1999-2000. What kind of reliability/accuracy issues might I be getting into? What should I lookout for?
Do any aftermarket stocks fit this particular kind? Does it accept all magazines?

Any information would be much appreciated. I heard you guys are the professionals!

Thanks!

Mine shot basketball size groups, so I got rid of it as fast as I could. FYI, I bought it brand new. My 581 on the other hand is a genuine 2.5 - 3.0 " grouper with silver bear, yugo surplus, and my handloads, unmodified right out of the box. If your making a purchase decision I would suggest you pass on the old M30.
