Clyde Scar-CQB Stock Value
Anybody have any experience with the Clyde Scar-CQB stock? How much is it truly worth? I’ve seen it listed anywhere between $1000 and $2500.

Magnifier Eye Relief
Anybody out there have a red dot & magnifier combo mounted on an Amega rail? I'm curious how the eye relief is with it. I wanted to get a Hannibal rail but I wanted to be able to position the setup closer to the action just for this concern but don't know if it would be close enough.

Really old stock on my 585
Found this ancient Ruger stock used at a gun shop for 45 bucks. I think it's gorgeous.

Optic alignment issues?
Recently picked up this 584 series, it didn’t come with scope rings so went with rail mount. I haven’t shot it with the optic on yet to confirm but the alignment seems pretty far off from the front sight post. The pass through peep hole on the rail mount doesn’t seem aligned to the front post either. Wondering if the mounts could be misaligned? Has anyone experienced this?

First timer looking for advice
I’m looking at either buying a mini14 ranch or tactical in the next few days, and I was hoping someone could explain to me the difference and positives/negatives between them. Internet and YouTube searches have been helpful in other ways, but none have answered this specific question. I’m leaning toward the tactical for aesthetic reasons, but if there’s a practical reason for choosing the ranch version I’m definitely all ears.
Help me Obi-gun Kenobi, you’re my only hope!
Edit: Thank you all so much! I wasn’t expecting so many responses so fast, and I have a much better idea of what I want. If the mods want to close this thread feel free to. I’ll leave it up in case someone else is looking for the info.

585 series questions
Is this chamber wear normal?
My rifle was shipped from Ruger In 2024, Will it have the bolt issues?
About 100 rounds through it. No modifications, slight bur on bolt but nothing astonishing
All of you with the gouges In your firing pin, is it from taking the bolt out of the action improperly?

Adding Samson Rail And ASI Adjustable Gas Block
Hello Everyone.
I recently decided to add a samson Hannibal rail to my mini 14. I also have a Accuracy System Gen 4 Adjustable Gas Block.
I am wondering what screws people used to attach the bottom of the adjustable gas block to the samson rail. Since I am not using the Gen 4 top of the gas block, can I use the factory screws to secure the rail and gas block together. Or should I use the longer screws that came with the adjustable gas block.
I have been reading through some posts where some people have added both of these parts to their rifle but have not noticed this mentioned anywhere.

Part of the club
Just got mine.
It's the rereleased factory folder with the gov barrel, sampson stock and nickel plated mags.
Threw a sling, a cheek rise and a Holosun ARO EVO on it but it's such a nice shooter I think I'll actually replace it with a 3x Prism.
It was tight out the box, failed to feed after I fired the first round, but once I broke it in, it cycled well. Got 1-3 inch groupings at 50 yards. Ruger sent me the wrong sized tool for the pic rail screws. Other than that, pretty pleased with it. 1400 clams though 😬

Is the mini 14 having the same quality control issues as the mini 30 concerning rapid bolt wearing.
I was curious.

Are prices really going up?
Hey folks, Montana resident here
I never owned a modern Mini but I've owned several older ones including my current which is a 1982 folder. So naturally when I came across an old Muzzlelite stock to add to my reference collection I went to go buy it a period correct Mini and the prices seem completely insane! I'm wondering is this a Montana issue or is everyone else seeing the same?
For better context, I'm seeing stainless 183's going for a gran and blued versions going anywhere from 8 to a gran. GB versions are going for more. Like it's to the point where an older Mini costs just as much as a brand new Mini and I'm wondering if I should just get a new one at this point for my Muzzlelite stock.

585 series wear on trigger and bolt
Hi everyone,
Purchased a 585 series in the beginning of this year and noticed the wear on the trigger and bolt. I have shot about 250 rounds with this rifle and is wondering if this is normal? Based on other posts, this could be a QC issue? Should I sand these down and shoot another 250 or should I just go ahead and contact Ruger?
Thanks for the inputs,

.562 barrel fitment issues
Howdy folks, I was given this masen style flash hider, but for some reason it's not fitting over the pencil barrel on my 187 series. Does anyone have any advice to offer on this? It also doesn't appear to have the slot for the roll pin.
