Are they that bad accuracy wise really. I mean I head they weren't the greatest but come on they can be that bad.
They aren't as bad as some people make them out to be. The newer tapered barrels are better than the older ones.

When you take them off the bench and start doing field shooting those AR's suddenly get a lot less accurate. Feed them the same ammo you feed a Mini and they lose that mythical accuracy.

They can be greatly improved with a few simple mods. Extra power recoil spring. recoil buffer, and a gas bushing. Add a barrel stabilizer like an Accu-Strut or a Mo-rod and the older mini's can see their groups get cut in half.

The Mini's never were meant to be match guns and they work just fine. For a SHTF gun even 4 MOA will work just fine.
