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.

That's the same with my 9mm Mak.

Here's what I read:

"Disassembly is similar in some respects to a standard 1911. First,
one removes the magazine and disengages the safety. Second, the
recoil spring plug at the muzzle must be depressed and the bushing
rotated. Once these pieces are removed, the recoil spring slides out
easily.

After that point, disassembly is similar to the other Walther .22s –
The slide is pulled back to lock, and the slide release can be pushed
out of the frame. Once you’ve done this, the slide can be pulled back
and off the rails of the frame, then pushed forward to clear the slide
from the barrel."

Does that sound the same?

All except the first paragraph.

The easiest one I have is the 1934 Baretta. You lock the slide back,
knock the barrel out of the groove in the receiver and release the
slide. It just comes apart. To reassemble you put the spring on the
rod, put the rod in the slide and lock it back, start the barrel in
the groove and release the slide. That knocks the barrel back into
position.



The CZ pistols are...different!
