Ruger Mini-30 10-Round Magazine

Factory Mini-30 Magazine

This is Ruger's own 10-round magazine for the Mini-30, the 7.62x39mm version of the Mini-14 ranch rifle. Ruger builds it to the same pattern that ships with the rifle, so it is a drop-in spare for range days, hunting trips, or keeping a loaded backup ready. It also fits the Ruger American Rifle Ranch chambered in 7.62x39, so one set of magazines can serve both rifles.

Features

• 7.62x39mm Chambering — The magazine is built for the 7.62x39mm cartridge, the same round used in the SKS and AK family of rifles.
• 10-Round Capacity — It holds ten rounds, a compact size that sits low under the rifle and meets 10-round capacity limits.
• Blued Steel Body — The body is steel with a bluing finish, a chemical treatment that darkens the metal and helps it resist rust.
• Precision Feed Lips — The feed lips, the curved edges at the top that hold each round in place, are formed to present cartridges cleanly to the bolt.
• Polymer Follower — An injection-molded polymer follower, the platform that pushes the rounds upward, rides smoothly inside the steel body.
• High-Tensile Wire Spring — A high-tensile steel wire spring supplies the pressure that feeds each round up as the one above it is fired.
• Ribbed Body Panels — Raised vertical ribs run along both sides, stiffening the steel walls and giving your fingers something to grip during a reload.
• Ruger Factory Marking — The Ruger name is stamped into the side, identifying it as a genuine factory part rather than an aftermarket copy.

Fit And Construction

Because Ruger makes it, this magazine matches the dimensions and locking features of the original, so there is no fitting or guesswork when it goes into a Mini-30 or a 7.62x39 American Ranch. The all-steel body, polymer follower and steel spring are the same combination Ruger uses in the magazine supplied with the rifle. Its black blued finish matches the factory look of most Mini-30 rifles.
