I've owned two Mini's and quit on them because of the terrible trigger and mediocre (at best) accuracy. I don't remember them ever failing to function.


No input? Guess the Mini really is as bullet proof as they say...

AR mags are unreliable, LMAO. I have enough AR mags to build a small house. Welcome to the 21st century and Magpul mags and others w/ anti-tilt followers, right up there w/ Glock mag reliability.
