I found a link once that showed how to do a lot of modifications to the Ruger mk III, but I can't find the link now. I am having trouble with a lot of misfires and would like to look at the firing pin section.

Thanks

This might be what you're looking for, if it isn't it should get you started.

Thanks for the quick response, that is what I was looking for. I am new to this forum and enjoy all the information on this site.

Oh, there's better info here than I can even hope to give, I'm just pointing you in the direction I was pointed.

A bit of advice - do your detail strip on a good working surface and keep some places clear to sort the parts. I used some extra paper towels as landing pads.

I used a large towel to lay the components on. I didn't find any burrs or anything on the firing pin, the firing pin felt sticky. I cleaned everything with break kleen and reinstalled everything. I am going out to the range this afternoon to try it, hope it makes a difference.

Thanks

Good work, hope everything is back to full function.

It felt sticky because of the preservative Ruger coats on everything before shipping. Hopefully you also cleaned out the firing pin channel too.
