OK, I picked this mini-14 up a few years ago and know nothing about it. I am looking for a little info on what's up with it?

It appears to be a 1987 original side-folder by the gas block/swivel and serial number.

The stock on it is some weird plastic that is the color of wood.

It has a scout mount on top.

I keep it in my closet for home defense loaded with 30 rounds of Hornady TAP

Any information would be appreciated.

Someone marked on the trigger guard and mag well. This is a pic of it.

It does however show the stock finish.

Does it have any value other than as an alternative to a $1500 AR?

Oh, and the rail is just a mini-scout-mount from amegaranges.com. I know what that is.

yes, I believe the rail goes to the receiver.

Are the original ram-line stocks for gb folders worth anything? I am just wondering what to do with the gun. Whether I keep it for home defense or sell it. I bought a Socom 16 that I like but the wife says I should get rid of something. It is between the two to let go. I do not intend to let the Mini-14 go unless it has some collector value or something.
