I see alot of posts concerning ruger MKII and 22/45 field stripping and reassembly. I too used to hate cleaning this gun because it was such a sonofagun to get back togeter.
After months of aggrivating re-assembly i decided to really figure out this gun. I took the gun apart, knocked out all the pins and completly disassembled the gun. every single part was laid out in front of me. Now, getting it back together!!
After about 3 hours i totally figured it out. It took about 3 times of total disassembly/reassembly but I got it back together in perfect order and it shoots like it should. Im glad i did it. Now i have a total understanding of how it works and field stripping and reassembly is a breeze.
Understanding how your gun works is a definate plus when it comes shooting time. I look at it like i do cars. Once you know how a clutch assembly works, a person can usually drive a clutch better. Im not saying this method is for everyone. But for myself, someone whos never totally disassmebled a gun. Its been a great learning experience.
P.S. I did some light trigger work since then. Very much improved now. I shoot it more now than I used to. Which was alot before. But now that i dont mind cleaning it, i dont feel so bad about getting it dirty.
