How a Ruger Mini-14 works

- The Mini-14 is a lightweight semi-automatic rifle manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co. used by military personnel, law enforcement personnel, and civilians. A .223 caliber (5.56 mm) firearm is made in a number of variants, including: the Ranch Rifle (a basic, civilian variant), the Mini-14 GB, and the Mini Thirty, which is chambered for 7.62×39mm. Introduced in 1973 by Sturm, Ruger & Co., the Mini-14 resembles a smaller version of the military M14 rifle. Designed by L. James Sullivan and William B. Ruger, it incorporated numerous innovations and cost-saving engineering changes. The Mini-14 rifle has an investment-cast, heat-treated receiver and is mechanically similar to the M1 rifle, with a self-cleaning, fixed-piston gas system.

Rotating Bolt baby!!! Same system as the M1 Garrand, M1 Carbine, and M14.
It was supposed to be a more cost-effective alternative to the M14. Made from mostly cast parts, I believe. Check out Forgotten Weapons' video on it, of you haven't already
Awesome video. I'm sure it wasn't easy to produce. Thanks very much for taking the time. This is a great instructional video for younger folks just learning about firearms. Well done.
It was so easy mate its fricking game he didn't to that its called: world of guns dissasembly. Its free on Steam check it out. You already have Thousands of prepared functional gun3d Models its Great thing. But it Annoys me a little that in its vid the guys not saying uts game like he made.but anyway its so easy to maję vid like this just start recording pick gun and play the game
@@Soap.--
Thanks for the info.
My favorite firearm! I have a Mini-14 GB blued. What software was used to make this? The level of detail is fantastic!
So basically what I'm seeing is that if the first stage of the trigger is removed/ restricted you essentially turn the firearm into a full auto
That is essentially the case with all semi auto rifles. Now say goodbye to your dog 🫠
Yes, but it also becomes "full auto until magazine is empty", which is less than ideal 😅
My favorite rifle. Thanks for this. Awesome to see the innards working.
So instead of it being a gas piston like it's older brother, they just went with a direct impingememt system! So simple I love it. I want to get me one! I have so many ars, but having something different like this would be awesome!
The mini isn't DI it has a big piston.
It's neither a D.I. system nor a true piston based system. It uses a very old gas trap operating system.
This system was once used on early variants of M1 Garand, but for some reason it was ditched for long stroke piston operation on later variants. It was also used in Gewehr 41.
The Mini-14 and Mini-30 are truly the last of their kind, because no other rifle uses this system these days.
This animated video would have taken a ton of time to make. Thanks!
U know its game and he didn't made it right?
@@Soap.-- what game? Whoever made it, would have taken some effort.
@@thooke222 hell yeah it is awesome game its called world of guns dissasembly its on steam u can get it for free but u have unlock all guns or u can spend 50bucks and get all guns in the beggining therr are thausands of functional 3d Models u can do everything with i recommend this game so much is awesome
@@Soap.-- cool
So, can this video author or anyone out in the audience tell me why it's so hard to cock the gun
manually? I slowed down the cut out animation to .25 speed but didn't help
Now I know which piece to remove to get more bang for my buck
I Remind This Gun From L4D....
WHAT A TIMES.
because it is the Hunting Rifle
@@dimas152mm Indeed...
Also illegal, Because the Auto Self-loading Rifles Was Banned in Pensilvania....
@@soloser-1tipodeporahi.899 not last time i checked. Im from NY right by PA and they have tons of stuff we cant get. And we can get autoloading semiauto for now.
@@cerberus1166 in the actual era...
In 2009(the actual year in the Game)
That Gun Was Illegal in the State...
@@soloser-1tipodeporahi.899 oh okay. Makes sense.
Very helpful to this jack-leg gun-smith. Thanks
AWESOME video!! Just went to the range and shot my mini today!
Да, без разбора на детали - круче
I have an early Mini-14, and I can see some differences in the design. For example, mine has a plunger style ejector in the bolt, while this one has a fixed blade ejector. I don't know if either is better than the other.
Hi Dwayne so I was recently shooting my Mini14 and realized that hiding in my .223 box was a.204 ruger and now the wrong bullet is stuck in the gun and the bolt won’t pull back do you have any suggestions?
@@wtgames3264 take it to a gun smith
I have a modern mini 14, and it ejects the shells about 30-40’ to the right. I’m very confident I will never get a shell casings stuck in the slide.
is this a gas operated or blowback?
too much trouble to utter a few words? lame.....thumbs way down
This is a very good representation but I must say that the action happens very quickly, much faster than what’s depicted here. This gun has the potential of firing nearly as fast as a fully automatic weapon.
Just bought one
Muy explicado
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Sorry I have a newer one and that's not how it works it jams so disappointing
Really? I just fired mine today, basically right out of the box. Shoots perfectly and was pinging targets like crazy. Had to have gone through over 100 rounds too. Look at getting it fixed
I bought a mini after high skool...best investment I have ever made.
Very nice
Been waiting to see this for awhile.
Awesome animation!
This was awesome to watch.
Awesome
long neck rifle
Great video thanks for sharing
I didn’t know mags that small existed for the Mini 14
Your mother and I are getting a divorce
@@StreetSweeper1776 Ваша жена, похоже, недовольна вами.
My mini30 came with small mags that sit flush with the bottom of the stock. I think it holds 5.
Well done SIR👍 love my mini-30..
👍👍👍👍👍
What a fantastic video to help teach beginners and enthusiasts alike the principals of rifle fire. I use this to teach my grand children when it's time for them to become responsible gun owner/operators .
Brilliant Simulation
Very well done! Thank you!
I want one .
As a gunsmith, you have no idea how relieved I was when I found out that the Mini 14 was long-stroke instead of short-stroke.
Short-stroke pistons are usually superior to long-stroke pistons due to how efficient they are with gas, but how the M14 did this was by having a short-stroke piston head and a long-stroke operating rod, meaning what you gain in efficiency you lose in that you have a weight on the front-end of your gun that moves erratically, throwing off accuracy. This is also a problem with basically every .308 rifle the Military has adopted since the 80's, with the only exception I remember being the SR25.
So, it's nice knowing that Ruger saw the pointlessness of making the Mini14 short-stroke. He still made a massive weight, but at least it's in a way that makes more logical sense.
do you have any idea how the bolt tilt (at the most backwards postion) works? i dont understand that one.
