The MA Attorney General recently clarified the legality of the Ruger Mini-14 because they screwed up when it was declared "legal". It's still subject to some confusion but her clarification says that a ".22 cal rimfire" is legal but .223 cal (NATO) is not. I don't think the Mini-14 is available as a .22 cal rimfire but am not sure. I'm not going to pretend to be one of your snarky asshole buddies here and insult you, so I will merely point out that either you or your attorney general is wrong about calling a .223 caliber round a NATO round. It isn't. The 5.56 NATO round is a higher pressure round than the .223 REM, and the chamber on the rifle is a tad longer to accommodate the fact that a little more powder is loaded into the NATO round. Many modern rifles can safely fire either round, but some cannot. There is one model of the Mini-14 that cannot safely fire the 5.56 round. Here's a better explanation from Hornady: Differences between the two are small but can have a large impact on performance, safety and weapon function. The first difference is the higher pressure level of the 5.56 NATO cartridge which runs at approximately 58,000 psi. A 223 Remington is loaded to approximately 55,000 psi. The second and most important difference between the two is the fact that a 5.56 NATO chamber has a .125” longer throat. This allows approximately one more grain of powder to be loaded into a 5.56 NATO cartridge; this is what gives it higher performance than its 223 Remington cousin. The biggest problem with these differences is when firing a 5.56 NATO cartridge in a rifle chambered for 223 Rem. Due to the longer throat that the NATO chamber employs this combination will cause a 223 chambered weapon to run at approximately 65,000 psi or more. This is 10,000 psi higher than the 223’s normal functioning pressure of 55,000 psi. This is NOT safe and will cause primers to back out, or worse, cause harm to the operator, the rifle, or both. The reverse of this is firing a 223 Rem cartridge in a 5.56 NATO chambered rifle. Due to the throat difference between the two chambers a 223 Rem cartridge may not work optimally in a 5.56 NATO chambered weapon. The cause of this is the lack of pressure built by a 223 Rem cartridge fired from a 5.56 NATO chamber. The 223’s 55,000 psi will not be attained and therefore velocity and performance are hurt. Problems start occurring when this combination is fired out of a 5.56 NATO chambered rifle with a 14.5” (or shorter) barrel. The lower powder charge of the 223 round coupled with the pressure drop that occurs when it is fired in a the 5.56 NATO chamber will cause the rifle to cycle improperly. NATO chambered rifles with barrels longer than 14.5” should function properly when firing 223 Rem ammunition. https://is.gd/13tegV |

(An M1 Carbine sort of look) My Ruger .44 is very similar looking too, actually just a slightly bigger version of the 10-22. They are both straight blow back operation. The Mini-14 is a rotating bolt thing. |
