I just purchased a new mark III 22/45. I brought it home, read disassembly instructions and did not drop bolt stop pin before pulling bolt back. Now the main spring housing will only come out about a quarter inch or so and the magazine will not go in smoothly or eject without having to manually remove it . The slide release also does not function properly and the trigger will not reset. Needless to say I have a boogered up pistol that has never even been fired. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Ruger mark III 22/45 disassembly issues
- Thread starter Redfishxd
- Start date
point the barrel to the ground while holding the trigger. tap barrel with a plastic mallet or screwdriver handle. may have to tap it prety hard to get the hammer to fall foward, but it will work and the mainspring will pop loose.
i suggest doing the mag safety disconnect mod to it so you dont have to have the mag in to disassemble it.
