It seems to me the price of mini-14s have stayed somewhat stable since the sandy hook shooting.

Last night I looked at gunsamerica and gunbroker, mini-14 prices were in the $800 - $1,200 price range, while AR-15s have tripled in price.

Before Sandy Hook a colt 6920 was selling at walmart for around $1,100, now they are $3,000 on sites like gunbroker.

Seems like NIB stainless mini 14's, 30's and the tactical models are more like $1200-$1500. So mini prices are 2 to 2.5x normal market price, IMHO.

I've seen some around here for 1200 too. Used prices are between 750-900 if someone will pay that. Good luck getting a 20 or 30 rd mag though.

As compared to other semi-auto rifles, 2X normal price is not really that bad.

On black friday walmart had the Sig M400 for something somewhere between $800 - $900. Now, that same M400 is going for $1,700. The Sig M400 doubled in price. Some of the higher quality AR-15s tripled in price.

All magazines have been stripped from the market. I was surprised to see places sold out of 1911 7 and 8 round magazines. Why would someone panic buy 1911 magazines?

The people in New York have until April fools day (4/15) to get up to 10 rnd. Mags. After that they can only buy up to 7 rnd. mags. That may help explain why no 8 rnd 1911 mags.

What happens to the 20 and 30 round Mini-14 magazines people already have in new york?

Kevin, I think this about more than just the proposed gun control. It's everything. Sales records have been beaten over and over again these past 4 years. This is the inevatable event of, not if, but when.

I think you have to take them to your grave, can sell or give away. You would have to move out of the state to sell or trade.

Bought my 30 on the 2nd of jan and paid just over 900 out the door. Sadly it had an EVIL feature so I had to wait 4 times the normal wait period to take her home.

There will be a lawyer feeding frenzy for a while over all this in the states that have passed more gun laws.

I thought I saw where you had a year to get rid of your more than 7 round mags out of state but I may be mis-remembering.

My undestanding is that they have to be out of state by that date (anything over 10 rnds) or it is a felony possession.

$1200.00 for an old Mini-30

Lets GET REAL folks & stop the price gouging. I saw a nice blued 190 series Mini-30 on "consignment" in Independence MO. the other day. The rifle looked in Great shape with a wood stock but, $1200 bucks, no way. I can buy a brand new Tactical Mini-14 for $800.00.

The way the NY mag ban is written you have till April to sell your over 10 round mags out of state. You will be allowed to keep your 10 round mags but you cant put more than 7 bullets in them. Some Libtard figures that if someone bent on killing mass amounts of people will remember that NY state law says you can only have 7 rounds in your mag.:lol:

No grandfathering. They must be disposed of (i.e., sold out of state or destroyed). I think there's a provision in the law about registering them but nobody knows how that would work.

I'm waiting for some 10 round mags for my Mini-14 and my 10/22. I can continue to buy 10 round mags up to April 15. We now may only load them with 7 rounds. I have plenty of clips for my Garand.

Everybody here is asking about Mini-14s. It's the new AR in New York. I have one in stainless/synthetic and I want to get another Ranch in hardwood. I hear they do pop up at local gun shops from time to time. I might be willing to pay MSRP but not a penny more. I'll just wait.
