Let's say you had the $$ and wanted to undertake an different kind of project.
I put off buying an AR for YEARS because every time I look, I gravitate toward a long barrel precision type rifle that gets real spendy, REAL fast. Now the ARs are under threat (along with other rifles).
This got me thinking. If I was to build a precision Mini (not saying I am), how would I build it?
My immediate thought was to obtain an old abused 18x Mini, and get it rebuilt (or get a receiver and start from scratch).
Bedded laminate thumbhole stock
20" fluted bull barrel w/ target crown and built in brake.
True .223 chamber
Custom trigger job
Titanium firing pin for faster lockup (Does such a thing exist for the Mini?)
So what ideas do you have?
