Paint it gold. Man with the golden gun!
Titanium Nitride plating is functional and looks like a golden gun.
Nice. In CA, you can't have one of those. Ordered a mkIV and it was returned because FFL couldn't reg.
Sadly, OP just lost it in a boating accident shortly after this post got stickied..
I hate when that happens
F
No handguns are available in California except these .22 and revolvers.
Negative, manufactured before 2018 can be imported and sold. Newer has a RIDICULOUS set of compliance standards that no manufacturers want to confirm to. So essentially nothing after 2017. Common sense. Yeah.
I actually really appreciate California, because they demonstrate what could happen to the country if leftist bullshit takes hold. FUCK THEM.
If you dont see these states as a Front line then you are a fool....it happened in Virginia and it can happen to you too
Let's not turn on each other
Tryin...
I can empathize with your frustration friend, but we're all trying to Make America Great Again. It's not hard to be blackpilled when it comes to the sorry state of California.
The only way it can change is if the silent majority in CA is no longer silent and all people of power is removed from office and MAGA representives take their place in one fell swoop. The only way CA can change is if the change is quick and drastic. Dare I say: radical.
You took it to 11 for no reason.
You had a reason to disagree and make your point, but you shouldn't have taken it to 11 imo.
Easy there Hoss
I too am tired when California gets written off. We're trying.
Don't talk shit about CA. You don't know shit.
Calm your tits. Not talking about the people. I'm talking about the 'leadership'
And I'm supposed to extrapolate that from the word you used which is "them"? Quit moving the goalpost plebe, you said some out of pocket shit and got called out on it. Let it be.
Edit: btw, I deleted my earlier comment myself.
Read the comment chain. It was a direct reply to someone talking about California gun requirements. Who do you think made those requirements?
Well that makes sense since I purchased this in 04 or 05
What would make a 22lr target pistol illegal to buy in California?
Truthfully, because it's a gun. They're just making stuff up to get as many guns banned as possible.
The "technical" reason is because it isn't on the approved CA handgun roster. It takes much money and some ridiculous design requirements for a handgun to be approved, so essentially no new handguns are making the list, and some are lapsing I believe. The approved roster gets smaller every year, so it functions as a de facto ban disguised as regulation.
integral silencer most likely
It's not suppressed. You need a tax stamp for any suppressor, integral or not.
so why the commifornia ban? I've been eyeing the SW22 Victory, is that even on the roster?
I was told it was legal to ha e, but you can't purchase.
Sorry for your cleaning sessions. I have a Mark IV and it's one button push to disassemble 😄
Ya.. it's definitely more of long drawn out love making to disassemble this one.
Once you figure out the mk - 1,2,3 it's simple as pie. Just another procedure
crying intensifies
It's beautiful
Those are wonderful pistols.
Wonderful once you add on $100-200 worth of aftermarket parts. Never shot a MkIII, but the MkIV stock trigger is dogshit, even on the 'target' models. It's a great platform to work up a more or less perfect .22 target pistol from, though.
I just wish the lower assembly was the registered part, would make barrel swaps a thing.
SW triggers are shit in general. Had to fix my Shield with a Hyve trigger otherwise it's like sandpaper
Shot pretty well, had ejection problems stock and if it was slightly dirty, would jam.
Just got a new mkIV 22/45 Lite with my Trump bucks. On the dogshit trigger, I concur. But I knew that I would need to upgrade when I bought it.
One of my favorites.
Lots of .22s on the Donald. Love it!
22lr ftw - cheap, dependable, reliable, and effective
MKIV is superior but whatever. Nice gun, friend.
I'm surprised by how long it took Ruger to turn this into a easily serviceable firearm. My 22/45 is an absolute bitch to work on. Sure, it shoots great, but damn. It's not just a safe queen, it's a breakdown queen as well.
This was purchased nearly 12 years before the mkiv release lol
Best things I've done to mine is: disable mag disconnect, disable chamber indicator, and add volquartsen parts kit. Nice rig now, and maintenance ain't bad after familiarizing with it
Nice. I bought a mark 2 for my son. What grips are those?
Volthane target grips
Wow, that looks like fun to shoot!
Sexy
Sweet fluted barrel
Nice grips.. what brand?
Volthane
The fabled Plinker
This is an excellent shooting pistol. Happy gun day to you.
VQ trigger? What else?
The whole vq competition kit, recoil rod and spring, large formed grips
You shoot matches or just appreciate a nice gun? I try to shoot Steel Challenge when I can but my MkIII is stock Ruger.
Used to target shoot at the NRA range in Las Vegas. Haven't shot seriously in years.
I'm having a Ruger mark iii 22/45
Beautiful. I have original non-mod mark I. A pain to break down compared to my glock. But I love it.
Ugh. Ruined!
