Barrel strut for Mini-14 and Mini-30 rifles. Provides mechanical rigidity for thin carbine barrel, reducing accuracy-killing vibrations. The 6-inch 2-clamp configuration gives your best opportunity for performance increases. Typical improvement is 50-75% reduction in group size for earlier straight-barrel rifles, and up to 33% on the new tapered barrels. Your actual experience will vary.
New super-lightweight version. Features cross-drilled lightening holes.
-
Lightening holes for weight reduction
-
Hollow endplug for weight reduction and preventing contamination
-
About an ounce lighter than LT model
-
Acccurization performance about the same as the LT model.
-
Also significantly aids in barrel over-heating problems, reduces load sensitivity, and enhances the appearance of your Mini.
-
Proprietary Flex-clamp design accomodates newer tapered barrels, an Accu-strut exclusive.
- Available in black oxide (“blued”), stainless steel, or combination finish.
Dimensions:
- Length: 5-7/8"
- Weight: 7.0 oz
The Accu-strut will generally fit on any series Mini-14 or Mini-30, except for some important exceptions:
-
Early Minis use a version of the gas block that does not incorporate a center flange. The strut will still install on these models, but note that there will be no place to attach the rear set-screws. This may lead to a slippage problem with no easy way to fix.
-
Early GB models with folding stock and the newest Mini 14 tactical Model 5895 with Walnut folding stock have a special version of the gasblock that have a side attachment point for the sling, and no center flange. Again, no rear attachment point, and possible slippage problems.
