Ruger Mini-14 Overview, History & Variants

[KK20]

Anyone seen these available locally?

I have the Lynx made base but prefer the one that replaces the gas block.

I'm struggling to get a comfortable sight picture and need to increase length of pull.

Haha, I had 2 of them or nearly the same, got it from Blunderbuss. Sold 1 to a gunsmith friend and the other 1 I loaned to another friend to try on his gun before he wanted to copy it for himself. True to tradition, the gun got taken during a house robbery, by 6 men dressed in blue uniforms with all the insignia on, nogal. But I'll ask the gunsmith if he by any chance still have it.
The problem I saw with it was that you have to get a comb elevator, to get your cheek weld correct.

I'll have to check what size the hole in my sight is. But I would like to have the hole center n bit higher in the sight, I'm very close to the end of the adjustment thread.

I had the same issue. Also a 182, so perhaps something Ruger did. I made a new insert with brass that I cut from a 303 case. Cut bend and hammer to shape. Drill hole. Stain dark.

Managed to find a pic rail to mount optics for aging eyes.
Makes sight picture/acquisition much better for me.

Tried a few options, settled on the 2.5x long eye relief for the moment.
