My DRC Mini-14

I just received back two of my Mini-14s that DRC customized. The workmanship is awesome! And, the test targets he shot at 50 yards are sub one inch! He said he just used cheap mil surplus for the test. I will take them out this weekend. Man, the trigger on both guns feel awesome.

I will post again after I shoot the gun. Dave at DRC is a pleasure to deal with. I can not recommend him enough.

Just received my pre-ban stainless barrel back from DRC yesterday. Went with the flash suppressor instead of the compensator. The workmanship appears excellent. Will shoot this weekend if I can get past the rain and black flies. Peak season for both in the Adirondacks.

Correction. Went with the flash suppressor instead of the muzzle brake.

Shot 20 rounds on Saturday and 20 on Sunday. No sense of even attempting to sight in until I paint the front sight post fluorescent orange. Right now it's just a blur due to presbyopia and stainless finish. I painted the original sight fluorescent orange in order to get a decent sight picture and anticipate it will work here as well. Was getting 2 inch groups shooting offhand at 25 yards so know that accuracy is a least as good as the full length barrel. Muzzle blast is no worse than the 16" barrel MT6530. All in all, it was good decision to go with DRC for barrel shortening. I highly recommend them for this purpose.
