Thanks and thank you for watching ... we are shooting in the morning and the Mini-14s will get a workout!

I agree 💯 about the Maverick 88

Just ordered a Mini thirty, can't wait for the call to pick it up. I wonder what experience you have had using steel cased ammo. KZbin is full of different test results and opinions.

[@megatrends]

Havent had issues ... honest truth. I wouldnt worry about it. But that being said the anvil style primers in Russian ammo willl once in a while see what appears as a light hammer strike when it is isn't. it is the primer requiring a harder hit. A Ruger American Ranch bolt action once in a great while with steel case wont fire on the first strike but does on the second strike and that is a rare occurrence anyway. haven't had issue with that in the mini-30. And as a side note my Mini-14 in 5.56/.223 has had zero issues with steel case and in fact has been pretty much all I shoot in it.

Until November 2022 I lived in New Jersey. I now live in Virginia But as a new jersey gun owner for 45 years I was always aware of public opinion in an antigun state like New Jersey a guns appearance could come into play if used in a self-defense situation. If i used a rifle in self-defense and was charged with a crime it should not matter but it could so I used a wood stocked mini 14 i would give up little in performance versus an ar 15 especially at home defense distances.

I like the wood stick, straight clips just so it doesn’t look tactical. I’ll stick to iron sights. Probably shoukd quit shooting if I need more than that. 🤣 they’re beautiful guns. Mini-30 is on my wish list. (Santa, I have been good all year!)

Thanks ...

Great Video!

[@megatrends]

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much for watching.

Great video, bud. I do the same with mine no editing Keep it nice and raw if I mess up or do something funny at least I'm not the only one entertained lol.

[@megatrends]

Right on lol.

100% on the Maverick. Hard for me to get comfortable with that pump.

[@megatrends]

Great shotgun ... Im seriously thinking about the ATI tactical stock for it with adjustable stock. Or finding a slightly shorter stock. it really is one of the best shotguns to own in that price range, very happy with it but I go to other ones more comfortable for me.

[@joelbabcock2952]

Yes I do to. I bought 2 of the Blu Line 870 clones from ClassicFirearms. Love the Maverick but it just doesn’t fit me right. I bought the MagPul tactical stocks for the 870 clones. Much better.

[@megatrends]

@@joelbabcock2952 Interest, the Blueline is also the H&R Pardner 1871 Security 870 clone. Same exact parts and same manufacturer in China. Same price range as well. I bought one and still shoot it, great shotgun, agreed.

Update Just got a new stainless mini thirty, poor quality in every respect. The only reasonably smooth surface on this gun is the stock. I liked the idea of the similarity to the M1 and never actually held the mini thirty before I ordered. The fishing sinkers I cast in my basement are better quality then the castings in this gun. I can't imagine that this gun was inspected at all before it left the factory. First and last Ruger I ever buy. I paid $1K for this gun. I feel like sawing the receiver in half throwing it away

[@megatrends]

Sorry to hear that, there was zero issues with fit and finish on this one. Better luck on your next purchase from a different company. Cheers.

[@ESMaddock]

Any issues shooting the steel cased ammo out of the Mini-30?

[@megatrends]

Not yet, no. Seems to run fine. Ive seen other KZbin vids where theyve had no issues as well. maybe it is for specific years? Older models? I dunno ...

[@BrianWinters-c5x]

It is Ron Spomer.
