This pre-owned Ruger Mini-14 is a classic 1980s semi-automatic sporting rifle presented in exceptional near-mint condition and fitted with a desirable Samson A-TM side-folding stock.

Dating to approximately 1986, this early Mini-14 represents Ruger’s traditional pre-Ranch Rifle configuration. Ruger’s factory serial-number history places 1986 production beginning at approximately 184-95448.

The rifle is equipped with the distinctive Samson A-TM folding stock, featuring dark-stained walnut, a metal side-folding assembly, and pistol-grip configuration inspired by the original folding Mini-14 stocks of the period. Samson manufactures the A-TM using the original stock-maker’s molds and design, although it should be identified as a modern Samson stock rather than an original Ruger factory folder.

Presented in excellent near-mint condition, this rifle should appeal to Ruger enthusiasts, collectors of classic Mini-14 rifles, and buyers looking for the iconic 1980s folding-stock appearance.
