After the barrel swap

Just a follow up to my first post on the SR22 barrel change. I ordered one from Twin Tech Tactical (excellent shipping and customer service) and, after inspection, cleaning and a tiny bit of detailing, installed it in my pistol. Since I had recently put about 100 rds through the factory barrel, I ha...

Standard Ruger 10-rd mags

I bought my first (and at this point, only, 10/22) several years ago because I liked the simplicity and versatility of the platform. Lots of custom products available, etc. As I accumulated parts and knowledge, I found that there was an issue with the mags dropping free when released. I examined all...

Regarding the blowback comment, I understand that that is the basic principle behind all semis, but the comment is based on what I read on their website. Just seems that they are aware that there are possible combos where the action won't cycle correctly. I'd really like to get my hands on one and s...

Ammo prices

The hoarders are in control, methinks. At my local range, I was still able to buy .223 (PMC) for $6.75/20 rd box as late as Jan 18. Don't know about availablity now cuz I've been working in Alabama for the last month. Went to a local gun show here a week ago and the 'good stuff' was non-existent, an...

Zip pistol

Looks rather interesting, but I'm a little concerned that it is a "blowback" design, and will require 'bullet power' to cycle the action. Looks like it has some really good design aspects, though. Fully 'ambi' and has replaceable and recognized wear parts. The platform adaptabilty look good, and it ...

SR22 Threaded barrel

Open question for all. Anybody have experience with the SR22 threaded barrel available from Twin Tech Tactical? I'm getting tired of waiting for Ruger to make it available. They told me this morning to call back "in about 2 weeks" and they "might" have more information on pricing and shipping. TTT s...

Bolt stop pin

Congratulations Bliss! You've successfully completed the first challenge. I know from experience how tricky all that was. Trust me, it gets easier as you do it more often. Always very tight when new. My 22/45 seems to literally fall together - very simple disassembly/reassembly without tools, wherea...

Well, bliss, for your sanity's sake, I sure hope UPS delivers today - it is a holiday for some. Great thing about this waiting is that it reminds us of how it was at Christmas when we were a whole lot younger - the thrill of anticipation!

Ruger Mk I

Hello Greener, and thanks for the welcome. GTO is a wealth of info and a great bunch of people. I need a little help in getting a picture posted and am sure it is a simple process. I have a web site where I store images, but can't seem to get them attached to my post. Any help? Thanks http://www.gun...

Troy T-22 Tactical Chassis

Just upgraded my 10/22 with a Troy chassis and a TacSol SB-X barrel. It was not quite as simple as (I think) it should have been. After stripping my action out of my old stock and changing the barrel, I attempted to assemble it into the Troy chassis. Would not go in - not even close. After several l...

Hello to all. I'm a new member and first time poster. Just had to give bliss some encouraging words. First full strip of any Mark is a challenge, but you will get comfortable with it. All of Bullseye's tutorials are priceless - use them as often as needed. My experience with new Marks has been that ...
