I'm sorry to hear that. You didn't find any suck^H^H^H^Hwise buyers,
eh?


I was warned that they were disappointingly inaccurate, like an AK. Is
there a simple fix?


Same problem as the issue M14 had, a large reciprocating weight under
a skinny barrel. Guys have dinked with the gas system, put heavier
(and better-made) barrels on them and almost have arrived at the
accuracy today's out-of-the-box AR can do. My $89 chink SKS does
better than the b-in-l's Mini.
