Of course not my Bushmaster.. What silly thought is that... No I was recently given a Mini-14 long story short from a friend of the family.. It was made in 1997 Stainless with synthetic stock and came with 2 mags, both Precision Mag one 20 and one 30 round. Nice looking gun. So when I got it I did a good cleaning and took it in the back yard to play.. Well jams without fail sometime goes 3 shots sometimes 15 shots but will jam somewhere between there. So thinking maybe it does not like those mags I ordered 2 Mason 30 round and 2 Ruger 20 round LEO mags, still jams, no matter the ammo as well. I have put various 223 Winchester JHP, 5.56 Winchester FMJ, 223 Hornady TAP, 223 Federal JHP, and my favorite 5.56 Lake City FMJ, still no matter Jam Jam, and have cleaned it a few times in there... The jam is with the extraction on the spent case, it does not make it all the way out before the bolt closes and starts to push the next cartridge in.. Anyone know why.. Thanks for the help.. Terry |

That's the classic definition of a short stroke. What is WRONG with the ejection? Does it have one of those "recoil buffers?" If you don't feel like fooling with it send it to Ruger. Dennis Jenkins
