Ruger Mini-30

[84 C4]

The Ruger Mini-30 is chambered for the 7.62x39 Kalashnikov, and I'm interested in converting one to 5.45x39 Kalashnikov. I know I'd need to modify the following:

Chamber/Barrel
Bolt (bolt face)
Bolt Spring
Modify Magazine

Am I missing anything?

If you do do it please,keep us posted.That sounds like a sweet little conversion.

so it's a non-issue. It would just be giving up the GI rd and .22lr conversion of the 223 Mini 14, and even he's not that stupid.

[41mag]

Just what GI carries a rifle in 7.62x39?Hmmmmm?:-):)

[andy]

it's 223.

[41mag]

He's not stupid but you are.Read his post asshole.He is asking about the MINI-30.

[andy]

POINT in doing what the stupid ass is talking about doing, so YOU are a dumbass, too. I merely pointed-out WHY what he's contemplating is a stupid waste of time and money (on a junk rifle to boot).

You called the mini-30 junk and have the nerve to call me stupid...and thanks for thinking my concept is a waste of time and money. Perhaps maybe I don't like the idea of owning a foreign made firearm, but like the 5.45? I admit it isn't something that'll be started on immediately, it may be a couple of months. It just so happens that I am actually getting ready to move to Colorado (I'll be there first week in Aug), and, unlike you, I have a job and have these things called "bills" which I need to pay. Not everyone can mooch off their woman (hell, I wish I could. I'd sit on my arse and play with guns all day;) ).

Hey, don't YOU live in Colorado? We should get together sometime.:cool:

the mini is junk, stupid. Regardless of caliber. It's poorly CAST, and even more poorly fitted. The handguard has to hold the operating rod on the gun, ferchrissakes. 5.45 is no cheaper than 223, and does nothing that .223 can't, aint as available or accurate as 223, and has no .22 unit, no GI, low cost mags, etc. So the entire project is a stupid waste of time and money, dummy.

I wouldn't come around GK on a bet. Not that I'm afraid of him but he is probably under surveillance by law enforcement now for what might be considered terrorist threats. Guilt by association, ya know.

Bad Juju.

you commented on a thread about the Mini-30. YOU, You. you were unable to comprehend, even slightly, what the topic was about. Then when caught looking stupid (ok, looking like you always do), you had to hurl insults to conceal the fact that once again, you were wrong and were caught.

:devil:

No one did but he could claim that you were his friend and co-conspirator.

I just want to poke him in the eye with a sharp stick.

why would you subject it to such abuse?


What do you have against sticks anyway?
