    Sometimes the seller is advertising it as an illegal firearm that isn't really illegal.
    Once you start asking questions, you find a different story.
    Never initiate force against another. That should be the underlying principle of your life. But should someone do violence to you, retaliate without hesitation, without reservation, without quarter, until you are sure that he will never wish to harm - or never be capable of harming - you or yours again.

      I had someone offer me 2x the $$ i was asking for a rifle I was selling if I didn't go through a FFL for the transfer. I didn't bother emailing them back much less answer that stupid offer. I don't know if the guy was a member on here cause he emailed me directly
      There are a lot of new members selling guns that they had for years and might have no idea its illegal. After all you buy a gun in california 15-20 years ago throw it in a closet and forget about it, go to a gun store one day and see it on the shelf for 1000$ Holy crap I got this one at home Im gonna try to sell it for 900$. run home do a google search cal guns comes up register post a for sale ad and try to sell a Bushmaster carabine. To a person that does not know guns and legalities, you can throw illegal and a legal gun ( say they look alike same accessories 10/30 mag etc)side by side and most people wont have a clue that one is illegal.

        other than a hi cap mag, I can't think of anything for a mini that I have seen aftermarket that would make it illegal?
        guess i don't get out much.

          one way to end it is ALWAYS go through an FFL

          Thieves are the lowest form of life out there, except for liberal politicians, of course, but that's redundant.

            I'm sure whoever goes to pick up the rifles will find Chris Hansen at the FFL saying "why don't you have a seat?"

            Most civilization is based on cowardice. It's so easy to civilize by teaching cowardice. You water down the standards which would lead to bravery. You restrain the will. You regulate the appetites. You fence in the horizons. You make a law for every movement. You deny the existence of chaos. You teach even the children to breathe slowly. You tame.

                I only see a few. Mostly Ruger mini 14s in the tactical stock, but people claim it is out of state picture so no proof. If you want to see people post illegal guns go on the Recycler Classified. I always see a mini 14 in tactical stock with a 20 or forty round magazine. M1 Carbines with pistol grips and 30 round magazines.

                I know, it not illegal to own a hicap before 2000 but they are offering for sale which is illegal. I seen the same M1 carbine on a few different posting, maybe a sting operation, I even contacted the seller and told him about the illegal layout of the rifle and no response, I suspect it is an undercover sting.

                    Minis with any evil features can be made complient with a Defense Industries .us mag lock.
                    ANYTHING illegal in anyway I feel should be emailed to a moderator to pull. Lets keep CGN clean.

                      Put a flash hider on it and it's no longer featureless.

                      It can have a compensator, but not a FH.

                      Ruger offers 6 versions of the Mini-14. Only the "ranch" and "target" versions are CA legal out of the box. The other three have "evil features" and would require a mag lock.

                        High cap mag would not make a Mini-14 Ranch illegal.
                        High caps only create an assault weapon if it had a fixed magazine.

                                If you see an illegal weapon for sale, you should pm the op and ask them to remove the sale. Give a shot at education before the mods get involved.
