Went to the range with it on the sixth, to prove to myself that I just don't enjoy it anymore. Big and heavy comparted to my other handguns, and shot so well it was boring. I know, that sounds silly, but I like to expend some effort in hitting the target. Plus, I've always been more of a revolver guy.

LGS consigned it at $375, I'll net $325. The LGS thought I was selling high, I thought too low. Considering there are rarely any used stainless Mark III Targets on the gun sites or in LGSs. I couldn't find any in researching my price, anyway. New street price seems to be $450-499, and the MSRP is $569.00.

I de-Volquartsened it, total factory again. So I have VQ parts, an LCI filler, Ruger parts, mags and holsters on fleabay. I should net around seven bills for the works. Money needed elsewhere, anyway.

If that's what you wanted to do, I think you made the right choice. I have been thinking of selling off a few guns to focus on certain other guns/calibers a little more. It's such a Pita to sell, but you feel better once it's done.

Me too. The annual gun show here comes up at the end of the month, will be trying to sell my M1A and maybe one or two others.

Hope the sales work out.

I've thought about selling some of the stuff I don't shoot much, like the Browning .22's. But then I take them out and they shoot well, so back in the drawer they go.

I like my browning, and I was thinking of selling my MKlll?

Nope, just making a comment about thinking about selling a .22 and getting stopped with they shoot well.

I'm just more of a plinker, and the Mark III is a target gun, especially with all the VQ parts. I couldn't believe how hard it was to change everything back to factory stock! The hardest thing was the mag safety spring. I was just sure that the back end of it fit onto something. Then I looked at Bullseye's photos and saw to just put it alongside the sear spring leg.

I don't care about group size or points, just if my prairie dog spins or the golf ball moves. My Bearcats and 10/22 do that fine, and the LCRs keep me good for carry. My Sentinel is a good shooter, too. I wouldn't mind finding another, maybe in a different style.

No, i'm thinking of selling my MKlll, really.
