Looking into getting into shooting again. I was going to initially go for an AR15, but they are super banned in my state. So I've been checking out getting something similar that is legal.

Is the Ruger Mini 14 a good substitute? Just mostly want it for 99% fun shooting at the range, 1% personal safety.

Hoping to get some general advice on semi auto rifles and whatnot. Thanks!

been looking at mini 30s for the same reason

I wish I had bought one of those lynx 12 shotguns when they were like $350 and before all the import bans/my state banned everything cool lmao
