I can't really commit on the mini 14 but the mini-30 in 7.62 X 39 is just as good as the AK-47 clones also known for lack of MOA. AK 300-500 dollars mini 30 300-500 dollars. apples to apples.

Think after seeing a movie called "red Dawn" I wanted a gun to shoot soviet ammo allong with a 223 and 308. Never really could buy a AK as the norinco and even hunragian version just did not feel right to me.

Picked up the mini-30 in 7.62 x 39 and a few high cap mags, a folding stock and a 3-9 low profile scope. I got the cheap ammo shooting americian AK.

I think of it as the vechile rifle with escape from the invading "Cubans". I shoot it with my rat a tat buddies, but it sits awaiting the invasion of america I guess by the Canadians now.
