Ruger MKIII 22/45

[mp123 0]

Here is a good one.

Gun was so flawless it was on the spooky side.

Probably has 5000 rounds through it.

Started to stove pipe like crazy two weeks ago.

Took it and cleaned it really well and went out today

and one in ten was a stove pipe. Started looking for a solution on line and getting an after market extractor was mentioned.

I looked at my pistol and guess what? Mine was gone. Emailed Ruger to see what they suggest. Plunger looks ok. Looks like an easy fix that I can do myself if they want to send me the part. I tell you. Youtube is a wonderful thing.

Found that I can polish a few trigger parts and really smooth out the trigger as well as to reduce the pull from five plus lbs. To under four lbs.

youtube is a wonderful thing. Good on you for getting the fix.

E-mailed Ruger over a week ago

got a confirmation that they would respond in 2-3 days

but no further response as of yet

not impressed

guess I have to get on the phone with them

hate it when you can only e-mail via their website

instead from your personal account

Same happened to me. When I finally called them, they actually had the gun at my door that day... not big on follow-up, but the actions were there... And, they did follow the schedule that they had promised.

got the part

put it in

pain in the butt since the bottom part of the old extractor was still in there

and I didn't have a magnetic pickup

flew out of there after a few attempts

now I have to get out to the range
