These are the Ruger Mark II and Mark III major differences. Both pistol models are approximately equivalent. .22 Cal target pistols with 5.5 inch bull-barrels.

  • will a mark ll mag fit in the mark lll?

  • @jbreed13 Yes, however they are different and a Mk II mag will not "stay" in the Mk III because there is no magaizine catch lip on a Mk II mag - causing it to not stay flush with the bottom of the pistol (it wants to drop down).

  • Very informative. I recently had a Mk2 giving to me for free, and I'm glad it was not a Mk3. As an Armorer, i hated the Browning Hi Powers Magazine inserted firing feature, and think it's just a pain in the ass, when you want to fire without a mag.

    Now, I just need to find some spare Mk2 mags!

    What about a video for take down and cleaning?

  • @Playmate1973 look at a few of my other videos :)

  • Would u know if the top halfs are interchangeable? Between the mk 1 and mk 111 ???

  • @frejoliejo I don't know for sure, as I've never attempted it... but they certainly look interchangeable.

  • @demonsiege23 Ruger amphibian was Hitmans silenced .22 pistol.

  • All of the gun smiths iv talked go to say the Mark iii isn't as good of quality as the mark ii. They say ruger is getting cheap in there production. I was told by two of them that the mark iii isn't as accurate... I haven't done a comparison myself so it's just here say to me. What go you think?

  • can i get an mk3 with a metal handle like the mk1 all the ones i see are plastic

  • I think the Mk III also has a key tool to lock the safety on safe. Probably overkill depending on how you lock the gun anyway.

  • Good solid review, thanks.

  • This guys reveiws are very good.

    Just needs to work on his camera framework and its gold.

  • isn't the mk 2 old snakes weapon?
