The Ruger Mini-14 Tactical rifle in 5.56 NATO (brand part no. 5895) pairs the Mini-14’s Garand-style, fixed-piston gas action with a walnut, stainless side-folding stock built from original Ruger casting tooling. Ruger finishes the 18.5-inch barrel in matte stainless with a 1/2-28 threaded muzzle, and ships the rifle with two 20-round nickel-Teflon-plated magazines. A matte stainless Picatinny rail receiver and injection-molded polymer grip round out the package. Among semi-auto rifles, the Mini-14 Tactical favors shooters who want a rugged, self-cleaning gas system with a foldable stock for storage.
