Tech sights, Cogburn Arsenal stripper clip guide, Choate Machine Tool ventilated handguard, Accu-Strut, Cogburn Arsenal M1A/M14 pin on dovetail sight base, Smith Industries Tritium M1A bar sight, John Masen post 580 series pin on muzzle brake, Wilson Combat 1911 buffer at the rear of the operating rod, and an Accuracy Systems Inc reduced gas bushing. Pretty much made it a 5.56 M1A.

That is a good looking rifle!

I need to get one of those stripper clip guides.

Very classy, looks perfect.

582, I got her yesterday and found a silver scope in town to get started on the look I want. I want to eventually change out the gray scope rings for the "stainless" version, just a little brighter. I'm keeping my eye out for some nice birch too.

Needed the Romeo 5 for another gun. I put an old Hi-Lux 2-7 on the Mini, so it's a baby scout rifle now.

Just received the new Samson folder. Fit my old 181 series fine as delivered but even better after I swapped out the OEM stock internals.

Excellent first post. Welcome aboard

Mini-14 ... model 5819, series 583, Ultimak M4S

My stainless tactical 16 inch... Ultimak perfectly matches the factory synthetic stock. Just looks like it belongs there.

Well, I'm done. I got both my Mini 14's just the way I like them and perfect to me. There are no more modifications or changes that I will ever make to them. My Mini's in their final form:

So how does the shilen barreled Mini shoot?

So how does the shilen barreled Mini shoot?

It fluctuates from 1inch to 1 1/2inches with Winchester 55gr. practice ammo. I got a video of a good example of what she can do:

Soon i will have all my reloading equipment set up and start making precision ammo for it. But as of now with basic ammo it will annihilate anything I point it at. It was taking out a 8inch gong out to 400 yards on my bosses farm the other day. He had a fit to see a Mini 14 shoot like that.:lol:

Sorry boys, raising the bar here

These are some of my favorite stocks for the Mini but it needs the front hand rest and mod zero butt stock to make it a classic EBR

Good for bench rest but not for a shooter. Kydex handguard and SAGE rails weight half a pound. Mod Zero stock adds another pound. I'm at 9.9 right now so with all the pretty stuff you are looking at 11 to 12 pounds!!!

So, its called a Enhanced Battle Rifle for a reason. Its not a chassis system to go hiking with.
