It's still hard to beat a Ruger Mark series though...

You beat me to it. With a little trigger work, some custom grips, a
barrel weight, and a red dot sight, you'd have a really first class
target gun. One of the guys I shoot against on Wednesday morning has
a Mark III tricked out like that and he's always in the top 3.

Next question - Which one, or are they all pretty much the same?

I really don't know. Lacking any additional info, I would probably
pick this one:

Price: $329.95 Ruger 10101 MKIII512 Mark III Target 22LR 5.5"
10+1 Black Syn Grip

I suspect that if you Google around a little you will probably find
some opinions out there. I have no knowledge at all of the newer
22/45 but the Mark III is certainly tried and true.

I hear they are not the easiest to strip for cleaning.

Easy to strip. A bitch to reassemble!


Well, I went with the Walther. Will give a report on its reassembly
when I get it.


It will be interesting to see how the one you bought breaks down.
On the PPK/2 you pull the trigger guard down and to one side that
then allows you to release the barrel assembly. Very simple.
