That’s what I thought. Maybe it’s not the same as the factory one in the picture. I’m going to give them a call this week. Is a pinned, welded or say red loctite thread protector over a threaded barrel safe act compliant?
I recently purchased a Ruger Mini 14 from a store. This version to be exact Ruger® Mini-14® Tactical Rifle Autoloading Rifle Model 5819
There is a chiseled X half on the barrel, half on the flash suppressor. I assume so someone would know if I were to remove it as there would be half an X left...
