It usually sits within...
It usually sits within arms reach in a vertical rack next to my desk and is my go to for home defense. These have always been reliable rifles, but the accuracy is much improved in this newer 5800 series. I bought one with a wood stock and put a scope on it. I liked it so much that I bought this one to have one with iron sights. The older Mini-14 didn't come close the the accuracy of these. I highly recommend this rifle.

I have the mini's...
I have the mini's relatives in 30-06 and 308 and perhaps just wanted to have the set. Who knows? Only the mini's mother could argue against the AR being the superior firearm-AR's can claim better pricing on many base models, better optics mounting options, better triggers, better controls, cheaper mags, quicker mag changes, comparable accuracy when comparing current and relative production models and more and cheaper accessories. I know-If I could only choose one-God forbid! However, my gun safe has room for more than one boom stick. The advantages of the mini are more based on overall feel and aesthetics. The mini is wonderfully light and slender-Round and alluring in the hand. It cases neatly and discreetly for vehicle and scabbard use. The mini feels much better than an AR slung over the shoulder. I find it much faster to get accurate aim for quick first shots on varmints with its' ability for proper cheek weld. It is my preferred 223 to take around the property. I find it imminently more attractive than my AR's. It is just plain fun to rack the bolt on WWII type semi autos. If you haven't yet had the pleasure, just wait until you get to slap the bolt handle to complete a reload! In my experience, the mini-14 is AK reliable. The GI style sights are wonderfully quick and accurate. All that said, I tend to say, gun folks do way over think our toys. The military is thinking that when thousands of soldiers use an AR, the milliseconds of time saved with the wonderfully ergonomic controls will save lives in a large aggregate population pool. However, for the single civilian that finds the Mini appealing, it is plenty quick, accurate and reliable enough for to do the job. In a sample set of one, I'd say training, character and confidence trump the millisecond advantages of a particular tool. A shooter ought to definitely shoot a practical rifle course faster with an AR than the Mini, but one must ask themself how useful is that when a defensive situation will only require a few rounds. I love my Mini and would argue when we compare and then deem the AR vastly superior to the Mini-14, that we are discounting the forest for all the trees.
