This Mark II was recovered from his family home by its original owner after a month under water in Metairie, Louisiana, following Hurricane Katrina in 2005. He immediately plunked it into a bucket of motor oil for several weeks while working to salvage other family items. Gave it to me here in Texas about 4 - 5 years ago as he was about to move again. You can see the Katrina-immersion surface damage in the photo; no functional degradation.
I'm a rifle shooter, but recently thought I'd try it out in a local bull's eye pistol event. Shooting Federal Gold Medal Ultra Match UM22 ammo (two-hand hold as I got familiar with the match flow), it seemed to do okay, and it was certainly fun to experience its still-flawless performance.
First target is slow fire. Second is rapid fire.
