Great review, thanks. Is the circumference designed for a large sized hand? Mine are medium so I'm wondering if I will find the MKIII too big. Some MKIII shooters are claiming that they can hit targets at 200 yards without a scope. Is the MKIII that accurate and effective at such a range?
thats a great deal! usually the thinner 22/45 models with polymer frames go for that much...i have both the mark iii bull barrel stainless and the mark iii slab side 22/45 blued...foundation of any good collection and being able to afford to shoot a lot...have fun
how much do one of these cost? because i saw one in a gun shop that cost $150.00 it had a little wear and tear but it was a mark iii in ok condition should i buy??
Good question Arcaenon, you would be correct. Love this pistol. Accurate and cheap. I was just cleaning one of these very guns and had taken all safety precautions. What you don't expect CAN happen... I'm all alone, not a round in sight, doors locked, phone off, and following every other safety guideline known to man. BANG! I'm just now recovering from the adrenaline shock when my son's birthday balloon popped about five feet away while I am inspecting it after reassembly. Holy Sh....!!!!!
have you installed a volqusteen accurization kit in it ? i did and wouldnt remove it unless puttin it in another ruger i have the long barrel with the slim barrel it cycles twice as fast and 3 pound trigger pull less reciol to boot but they are the best for the orice traded a browning slabside 22 for the ruger browning sites always were off and it was very pickey about ammo the ruger eats anything i feed it and accurate as hell
i have the identical pistol. it's unfortunate ruger's lawyers screwed with it. If you're going to actually use it install a hammer bushing,remove LCI, install exact edge extractors.
Do you think Ruger would ever go the way of the 10/22 with this? Like, start making everything plastic and powder coating it? I would hope not, I think it would kill the pistol in a way.
i will have to wait 7 damn years to buy a pistol... but by that time all these guns would be too old... i wont get to buy pistols from my childhood dream!!! than i would have to buy laser guns... damn
yes if it's a bullbarrel it's the target which is 5.5 inches and the hunget is basically the same but longer. u can also tell by adjustable sights. the standard will always be a tapered barrel.
@fireleo1000 i take ak47 anyday to a survival stuff... war etc... cause ak doesnt jam as much as ar15 and if your gun jams your dead meat... ak never jams..
How many rounds does the mag hold, because I am pretty sure this gun is legal in California, because I've probabaly seen them in shops, just want to make sure.
What a great prize. That would be an awsome first place prize, let alone second. Have fun with your new pistol. With the ammo it uses, you can have tons of fun, for very little cost.
New camera? The quality is much better then the other videos I've seen. Nice MK lll, I got one just like it, except for the red circle on the left side of the receiver. Maybe just a sticker or something? (Not talking about the Ruger logo on the grips)
congrats. i got a 22/45 but i think i am going to get a mark 3 as well. i like that its all steel. can agree with the chamber indicator but i think they put that on them to make them california compliant. have fun with it gotta love ruger rimfires.
@zboyco The worthless and over-sized loaded chamber indicator on the Ruger Mk III makes it inferior to the Mk II. Also, you were incorrect in suggesting that the Mk III does not have a magazine disconnect safety.
Vermont and Alaska have the best gun laws, which is basically none. You don't need a gun license, there's no waiting period for new guns, Only thing you do need is a backround check and money. (And be over 18) It's like living back in colonial times! And not surprisingly Vermont has very low crime rates.
