Went to a gun show on Saturday and took my CZ p10-c and the M&P 22 full size auto to trade if I found what I wanted. There it was a Ruger Mini 14 NIB with the wooden stock for the best price I've seen. When inspecting it was Death Valley dry. There wasn't a bit of lube anywhere. It was so dry that the slide was dragging. So I cleaned it and went over it silicone cloth and lightly oiled the moving parts. Pretty easy to break it down after you learn what and where the fiddly bits are.
Now it's Monday and I have to try it out. Ran a 100 rounds through it and twice 3 rounds into a mag it failed to eject. I wouldn't say it's the mag but they were the only thing that wasn't cleaned. I'll do that tonight and dip a Qtip in some chrome molly lube and give the parts that rub together a light coat. Here's how it did shooting. I was sitting down with a bag at the front for support. Not great but not bad for the first time out. I had forgotten how much I like peep sights but 64 year old eyes with floaters and bifocals won't help your group size. There'll be a Nikon P-223 3-9x40 BDC 600 Matte added in a short while to help my tired eyes. I already have the 22LR version of the scope on my CZ 455 and it's a dandy. here's a picture of the target. Fun gun to shoot. The two FTE don't bother me as I think with use it will quit.
Top right is 20 rounds at 30' to get the feel.
Then to the bottom left 20 rds at 60' the adjust sights bottom right 20 at 60' looked pretty good
Now to the middle right at 75' feet it opened up but that was me the middle left as fast as I could get back on target.
