Ruger Mark II Projects

[johnmcl]

Hi all,

I have a pair of Ruger Mark II pistols, both with 4 in. bull barrels and one with some type of a very nice trigger job. I inherited the second, hence the lack of detail.

Always yearning to move the funmeter to the right, I'm considering projects for these two guns. One might get turned into a serious bulls eye gun, the other a snubby for fun.

So what's the view on Pac-Lite barrels? They have little short ones that look like a ton of fun. They also have six in. models that have integrated rails. I'm wondering how one of those and a target optic would do on the bullseye circuit. The six in. model is approx half the cost of a Volquartsen upper.

Also, what's the thoughts on C-More sights versus red dots? I never had C-More on my list until I read the latest American Handgunner

Thanks in advance for the thoughts,

John

The PacLite stuff has a great rep; more information can be found at RimfireCentral.com.

This is an interesting mod; I'm going to do it on my MarkII once the brown truck from Brownells arrives

Hi Joe,

Thanks for posting the photos of your MII. Tell me a little on the mount and the red dot, please. I'd also like your insight into the weight factor. Weight reduction is one reason I'm considering the Pac-Lites.

Thanks again,

John
