The recurring trend you'll see here is that the barrels of our Mini conversions are all very short- legal minimum in fact. I will never make the promise that your mini can shoot MOA accurracy. It cannot. I submit that the mini 14's problem with accuracy is NOT the barrel size or length. The issue affecting accurracy is that it is a RUGER MINI 14! Take it for what it is, and build on that. The mini is a battle rifle. It is an offensive weapon best suited for extreme duty- moreso than even the AR platform (dare I say).  By reducing the rifle's weight and size we make it handle faster. By reducing the barrel's length- we reduce the duration of the pressure stoke through the op system. This in turn, reduces the motion of the rifle by slowing down the "recoil" force you may feel. Lastly, enhancing the user interface with a light, crisp trigger and enhanced sighting system. Myself and others have carried SAC's mini conversions to victory at several  3 gun and USPSA rifle matches. It has been suggested by one very satisfied client that we change the name of our rifle to "Awesome-14."
