Ruger Mini 14 For Sale | Rugar Mini 14 | Ruger Mini 14 Stocks The Mini-14 is a lightweight semi-automatic rifle manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co. Introduced in 1973, it is based on the M14 rifle and is essentially a scaled-down version chambered in 5.56×45mm NATO.

The primary factor is that only Ruger makes the Mini-14, but other companies make the AR-15. The Mini-14’s quality from Ruger is respectable but not outstanding. Although it doesn’t have the same fit and finish as many AR-15s, it seems sturdy and reliable.

The Mini-14 was originally marketed to both sportsmen and government agencies, like the military and police, during its early days. Initially, Ruger’s goal was to develop the Mini 14 to get military contracts due to the initial issues with the AR-15 or M-16, but that never went anywhere.
