Description:
During the 1970s and 1980s, Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc. sold their Mini-14 rifles from the factory with side-folding steel and wood stocks with polymer grips. These stocks were originally marketed towards law-enforcement personnel but were available for sale to the public as well, both already supplied with a new gun and separately available for purchase from Ruger. Specifically, Ruger's select-fire Mini-14 variant, the AC-556, was typically sold with the factory folding stock equipped.

The factory folding stock's popularity rose with their use in the TV series, "The A-Team", the entire protagonist ensemble of whom's signature rifles were stainless Mini-14's with factory folding stocks and stainless aftermarket upper handguards.

When Ruger discontinued the Mini-14 factory folding stock in 1989, they became collector's items. Recent years have seen individual stocks sell for $750 and up to and beyond $1,000, in rare cases.

This is a 1983 manufacture date, mini-14 with the FACTORY FOLDING STOCK. It is in excellent condition showing a paint chip on the rear sight and a small dent on top of the stock where the screw attaches the stock to the receiver. "See pictures". It is blue with a matching blue folding stock with the sling attachments being on the side of the barrel where they should be if it is a genuine factory folding stock. The rifle shows minimal signs of use showing no signs of bluing loss or abuse. The stock is in excellent condition and operates as designed. This is a nice firearm that is already a collectible.

**A twenty round Ruger mag will be shipped with the rifle UNLESS you live in a state that thinks large-capacity magazines are responsible for the crime in your state. In such states, a ten round mag will be shipped.
