Ruger Mini-14 Tactical 5.56 NATO Semi-Automatic Rifle – 16.12" Threaded Barrel, Ghost-Ring Sights
This 2023 Ruger Mini-14 Tactical pairs the platform’s proven Garand-style gas-piston action with Ruger’s post-2007 heavy tapered barrel for enhanced accuracy. A 16.12-inch alloy-steel barrel comes factory-threaded 1/2x28 and capped with a six-prong flash suppressor, while integral scope bases and included Picatinny rail make optic setup straightforward. Ruger’s black synthetic stock with molded checkering keeps weight down and durability high, rounding out a modern, versatile rifle chambered in 5.56 NATO.

The Mini-14 Tactical’s Garand-derived fixed-piston operating system is renowned for reliability in varied conditions, favored by law-enforcement agencies and ranchers alike.
Ruger’s accuracy redesign gives this rifle a heavier, hammer-forged barrel that resists heat and maintains consistent grouping, while the 1:9 RH twist stabilizes a broad range of 5.56 NATO bullet weights.
A rugged black synthetic stock with integral recoil pad and molded checkering offers sure handling in all weather, complemented by a ventilated polymer handguard for heat dissipation during extended strings of fire.
Wing-protected blade front and ghost-ring aperture rear sights provide fast target acquisition, and the receiver’s machined-in scope bases plus the included Picatinny rail support a wide selection of optics without additional gunsmithing.
The 16.12-inch threaded barrel accepts muzzle devices compatible with the common 1/2x28 pattern, and the factory flash suppressor reduces visible signature without adding significant length.
