Buckmark vs. 22/45

[tb-av]

Do none of you know about the Speed Strip Kit for Ruger 22 pistols?

Get a 22-45 and a Speed Strip Kit and press on!

I have been shooting a 22-45 for going on 10 years now and it is accurate and reliable.

That's the thing I mentioned above. Couldn't remember the name.... although this guy is pretty damn fast and I've seen another guy as fast or faster.

If anyone got the hots for a Buckmark. The sportsman Outdoor Superstore is having a Labor Day sale and it looks like the whole line is basically $330 to just under $300 depending on model. Although the email I got some models they only had like 2 left of each.

I agree that Ruger ruined the pistol with the MK III, however their are easy Volquartsen fixes for them. I have a MK II era 22/45, 4 in bull barrel target version, and two MK II's with the 5.5 in bull barrel. They are accurate and reliable. I prefer the Rugers.

Rugers are a pain to field strip, and the rental one we have at my job goes back to the factory for repairs monthly.. Id go for the buckmark.

Field stripping the Ruger take seconds. It's remembering the trick to field strip it that takes so long

Sounds like I need more training! I guess I just got lazy messing with M&P22s that literally take seconds to strip.

From (rusty) memory the trick is to hold it upside down when reassembling the locking pin. And it has to be uncocked.

No big deal for a mk 1 or 2. But you have to out the mag in to uncock a mk 3.
