I don't understand why people have a big difficulty with taking apart and putting together a MK I,II, or III. Once you learn the angle of the dangle of the hammer strut you got it licked.

Had a MkIV Target for a short bit but could not get used to the "new-and-improved" lawyer bits so sold it on. Guess I'd rather deal with the devil I know...
I don't buy guns that aren't easy to strip down, but then I was spoiled because my first gun was a SIG P229. You could always go with a Buckmark.
Has anyone ever bought one of those hammer strut assembly aids for the early Mk pistols? They’re advertised for about 17 bucks in several gun magazines but I’ve never read where anyone has ever used one. If they’re worth the $$ and make reassembly easy I may try them out.
I must admit that my 4 3/4” Standard and 6,5” Mk II Govt. Target don’t get shot near as much as the Mk IV does now that I bought it. (Yeah, I hate breaking down and reassembling these two as well.)
I added Volquartsen innards and wooden thumbrest grips that make it a dream to shoot, plus I can go from a 10” to a 5.5” bull barrel in a few seconds so it’s bringing along two guns in one.
Stay safe.
Mark IV pistols have the magazine disconnect??
As for my Mark II, I may just take out that "quick takedown kit".

I actually kept mine in place due to the fear of damaging the firing pin / dinging the barrel in the absence of a chambered round.
That's a good point, all these new rimfire guns it seems say they are safe to dry fire, but that has not been my experience. I've seen dinged chamber edges on a "safe to dry fire" firearm.
You gotta dryfire to disassemble.
