Ruger Mini 30 7.62x39 20rd 5854 - $829.99

Not sure if Ruger addressed the issue with Russian berdan primed ammo cycling correctly. The mini 30 I have with a production date of March 2013, eats Tula ammo just fine. I might get a FTF once every 100 rounds, not bad for cheap ammo.

These are nice rifles, but do not get one if you plan to use any berdan primed ammo. That includes all russian and non U.S. made 7.62x39mm. Ruger designed this rifle to use soft primers which has resulted in a very unreliable rifle. What a shame, because I love the Mini14/30 format. I bought one last spring and then got rid of it after having FTF every three to four rounds and I refuse to pay U.S. manufacturer prices for boxer primed, brass case 7.62x39mm ammunition, which do run flawlessly. Ruger really pissed me off with this rifle. I would not recommend this rifle until Ruger addresses this problem.

If you want a cool looking and totally unreliable rifle that will only cycle 5% of the ammunition on the market than the Ruger Mini30 is just what you've been looking for.
