Everyone has a Mini-14 for their own reasons. I bought mine new in 1980 just to play around with. I find it to be a very accurate gun with open sights (if one can shoot that way and I can) in spite of other people's love of slamming the gun. It has it's attributes that other carbines don't and it's one of the most fun guns I own. The Garand action, IMO, is one of the best to ever be invented. It just works and is very simple and quick to take apart and clean. It just works.
