I think the EOTech camo would be enough for me to justify a second one in matching camo. Call it a "spare"

As seen in the photo- 11.5lbs. And, it's still not done. Waiting for the Magpul XTM covers. Still need to order the 3x magnifier with flip to side mount, Sling, Accu strut, and Laserlyte K-15 green laser. Oh and still need to add spare batteries for the eotech and laser in the stock. Already have spares for the flashlight in the vertical grip.

It's ******* heavy! :lol:

You'll need to be on a strict workout program before you attempt to lift that Mini once done....

Load it with frangibles... that will cut the weight down.
Hmmm... 62gr. - 42gr. = 20gr. 20 gr. x 30 = 600gr.
Wow! That's a reduction of 1.37 oz.
Problem solved!

Your such a dick! :lol:
I'm just so tired of hearing "AR15's are the best rifle their is". I have owned plenty and have shot plenty. It was a "black rifle disease" I caught and cured with the mini-14. Dont get me wrong, I like AR's and may have one in the near future. But, in my opinion, my Mini has shot and out performed any AR I have ever owned or shot for that matter. A tac driver a Mini is not. but a 3" group at 100 yards is all center mass and all I need. I dont compete so why would I need a tac driver? For a SHTF gun I would run to my mini before an AR anyday.
