So, just picked up a barely used Ruger MK IV that has had the recall work completed. The pistol looks brand new and feels great, although the trigger was horrible. At 4 lbs it was a little heavier than I wanted in a .22 for range work, but I might have been able to live with that except the pull was long and mushy with an overall gritty feeling. Enter the Volquartsen accurizing kit and after about 1 1/2 hours of installing, it's a crisp, 1 1/2 lb trigger. And, with the adjustable pre and post travel, it's amazing.
Here's before and after pics of the gauge with this. For anyone with a Ruger MK IV (or earlier model) looking to make a great upgrade, the Volquartsen kit is amazing. I only wish Ruger would do this from the factory, but I suppose there's a lot of liability involved in giving people a nice, crisp, light trigger.
