Ruger is pleased to introduce the Ruger Mini-14 with side-folding stock. This model is reminiscent of classic side-folding Mini-14 rifles originally produced in the mid-1970s. The walnut stock features a stainless side-folder made from original Ruger casting tooling and an injection molded polymer pistol grip. The threaded 18.5″ matte stainless steel barrel is fitted with a factory-installed 1/2″-28 flash suppressor. Updated to compliment the side-folding stock, this model features 1″ sling loops located on the left side of the new gas block and the rear of the stock. Other features include a ghost ring rear aperture sight and a non-glare, protected blade front sight with bayonet lug.
