The pinned thread states these two models are banned in NJ. Ruger K-Mini-14/5 F and Mini-14/5 RF

 

On Ruger's site it lists the following ranch rifle:

 

Ruger K-Mini-14/5 P

 

Is the forum typoed? Is the ranch rifle listed on Ruger's site banned?

 

As far as I can tell the only difference between the Ruger K-Mini-14/5 P and the Mini-14/5 is one has a synthetic stock and the other is hardwood... what am I missing?

 

thanks in advance.

The F was for the uber-cool folding stock that used to come from the factory. It was a really good stock as far as folders go.

For what it's worth, I actually called Ruger and asked about this a few years ago. The "K" refers to stainless steel. The "F" and "RF" refer to folding stocks. The "5" refers to the 5 round magazine. On the models shown the Ruger website, the ones with the "P" all have polymer stocks, so I'm assuming that's what the P stands for.

 

At any rate, if you're in the market for a Ruger Mini-14/Ranch Rifle, Arms-N-Ammo always has good prices on them when he gets them in.

ahh, thanks all.

 

So I'm assuming that the Ruger K Mini-14/20GBCP "Tactical" is legal in NJ (so long as you only have <16 round mags) Since the only "evil feature" is the flash hider?

 

thanks for the help!
