Your just a good guy. But there are many out there, that view a ar-15 as useless and stupid to own. But people don’t feel that way about a m-1 garand, or a springfield rifle. These hunters just hope that if they give up the so called assualt rifles, that the liberal left will leave them alone, which is a falsity.
Me just being anal… The mini 14 is 5.56nato (.223), and the mini 30 is 7.62.
Regardless, both are badass. I have the mini 14 with a bunch of 30 shot mags. I was able to order them last year from a website called …floridagunworks.com? i can’t remember. I had no problems having them shipped here though.
regardless if those mags were shipped here or not, check em for a stamped date, if its after 94’ there no good. If theres no date, then say they are pre-94’. There are gun stores that even have non-AWB compliant stuff, and will sell it to you, but you will take the hit for it, and will be a felon, unable to own any firearm.
oddly enough, i was looking at ordering a complete stag arms rifle through the gun center, and they happened to just get the lefty version in stock a few days ago! needless to say, a part of my tax return is gone now
its pretty basic with a flip up rear sight, but seems good for a starter.
Just remember, that if its sold in NYS, it will have a FIXED extended buttstock, no bayo lug, it must have a muzzle brake, not the A2 flash hider, and the barrel must have the brake pinned on, no threaded barrels are allowed. My gun has all the toys, but fall under a military exemption. But teh lefty stags are really nice toys, fit the left hand shooters. Let me know if you need any help, and when you get yours, we will have to have a NYSPEED ar-15 range day.
