Contrary to popular belief, Apple did not kill the mini because iphone 13 mini sales were poor. And they were poor.

Apple killed it because Mini 14s are illegal in Europe. There are tons in the US though.

The Mini 14 never existed. Perhaps you're thinking of a specific (non-mini) model of the iPhone 12 which was temporarily banned in France or maybe the USB C requirement which went into effect ~1 year after new sales of the iPhone 13 mini were already discontinued by Apple worldwide?

I think maybe they're making a joke about the Ruger Mini-14? It's a rifle.

LOL, hilarious if that's what it was! Can't say I've ever shot one but it sure looks fun.

		The mini-14 is probably the best and most useful rifle I’ve ever owned and would 100% recommend to anybody.
