A great collection of mostly non-collectibles...

Ruger has made thousands, maybe tens of thousands of Mark III Hunters.
I had one years ago, with a long barrel. It was as good as all the
Mark III's, though I think the non 22/45 models handle better. I don't
recall what I paid for the pistol when it was new, but it was about
$300, maybe a little more, from a high volume dealer.

A stock Mark III is a good shooter, but it could use some work to make
it a better shooter, the kind of work Volquartsen does.

A high end red dot is wasted on these pistols. Most of the Mark III's
I see that have a red dot mounted go with the Bushnell TRS-25, which
goes on sale frequently for $55 to $75. It's more than good enough for
a stock Mark III.



Your narcissism and selective editing speaks for you.

authenticity. The best part, aside from the money going to charity, is
that the firearm was only about $100 more that what the red-dot sight
costs. I'm not sure if I want to fire this one or leave it unfired to
hold the value. I have other .22LR Ruger pistols so I'm leaning toward
the safe. I have a Ruger 22/45 with a factory suppressor on order so I
might look into adding a sight to that one instead.
This one?

Let me know next time you see one of these at another charity auction! Beautiful gun,
but I'm still fighting off the Mark III Hunter.

That's it. With an Aimpoint Micro installed:

Whew! Those things aren't cheap!

What could drive the price of a red dot scope to $500+
?


Quality. You can spend 3X that on a red dot sight with no
magnification. 5X that with magnification. The cheap red dot sights
have a dot that is irregular in shape and can nearly cover an entire 8"
target at 100 yards.

That's nice. I have a fender guitar that was produced by the hundreds
of thousands, except mine is factory different. it's documented and
it's #3 out of only 13 of it's kind in the world. It's worth about as
much as my wifes new Honda CRV So...
I can appreciate his collection of unused firearms, with documented
factory owned (not for sale to the public) pieces.


Admittedly, I don't read Alex's posts, and only see some of them
second or third hand, but I don't recall anything that indicates the
Mark III he bought was "factory different." Unless there is something
unusual about it, it is just another mass produced .22LR pistol. As I
stated, these are fine pistols, usually, but no more unusual or
collectible than a Toyota sedan. I can't think of a valid reason why
anyone would put a $500 red dot on a stock, production pistol other
than there was one kicking around the shop.


Read before you edit and you might learn something. You read everything
here and have been caught referencing specifics that weren't quoted.
Your story was the same along the lines of clearing out your bin.

OK, so. why all the criticizing? He has a hobby he enjoys. You
criticize him for it. Herring likes to go out to parks in his
trailer, and you criticize him for it. Wayne has a very nice boat and
he is capable of piloting it to about any open body of water, and
you criticize him for it. There was a guy named Dale (fishwisher) who
had a hobby of fishing in various lakes for sturgeon. had a great
boat and camper. He'd post stories here and you'd criticize him for it.

What's the deal, Harry. It seems that it bothers you if someone
here happens to enjoy a hobby. really



What Alex does, mostly, is take cheap shots here. Herring does the
same, and is a racist. Wayne is a pompous asshole. It has to do with
their persona, not their hobbies.



You would only see those "cheap shots" if you read all of my posts. You
are the undisputed King of "cheap shots" so STFU and go pay your taxes.

You will not be able to count on more than one hand the number of people
