Ruger Mini 14 furniture swap

I have a Ruger Mini 14 Tactical with folding stock. It looks like this:

I want a non-tactical polymer stock. It looks like this:

Is anyone interested in trading stocks? The wooden version may be acceptable as well. I am just throwing this out there to see if this makes sense to any Mini 14 owners.

The problem I have with the tactical/folder is that the hinge is very large and is right in your face if you shoot left handed. It is not noticeable for a right hander.

Sorry, don't have a stock to trade. But I used to have a Ramline folding stock on my Mini 14. It was not comfortable, but better than the Ruger factory wood stock. When the Ramline stock broke at the hinge, I replaced it with a Hogue Mini 14 stock ($70 at Midway for black, other colors are available). The Hogue stock is fantastic. Improves the handling of the rifle. I will never put another stock on my Mini.

I got the stock you need. It is on a new mini that has never been fired.

charley59 - thanks for the Hogue suggestion. I like it.

jasonh31 - If I do the swap you are the first one that I will contact. I need to think it over.

In addition to jasonh, I also received a PM with a swap offer so I know that there is interest. That is what I wanted to find out.

I do not have enough posts to PM.

jasonh - I wrote your email down for future reference. Now I suggest that you edit that last post and remove it so spammers don't get it.

FWIW, I too have both stocks. I prefer the non-tactical by far. Sorry, I won't trade you for mine.

OK, thanks for letting me know. I have decided to buy the Hogue stock.

Thanks again to all who responded.
