    22/45 with red dot

    I currently have a sightmark pro on mine and it's not bad at all. I'm looking at a new Vortex right now and probably will get the viper or venom. A friend has one on his and I like it a bit better. Here's mine. Not the best pics but you get the idea.

    22lr ammo price check

    CCI Minimags are $6.95/100 at my local Wally World. I have bought 20 boxes in the past few weeks. Academy has the tubs of Remington Golden Bullets for ~$65-70. I bought a couple of bricks of Blazer Brass .22 LR at Cabelas for $27 each. FWIW, most Wal-Mart now keep the .22 behind the gun counter...

    Ruger 22/45 lite is just junk

    Sorry I have not been on the forum in a few days. It's a Sightmark Mini Shot Pro red dot. It works great for me.

    Ruger 22/45 lite is just junk

    I have a 22/45 lite and love it. After a little bit of taking it apart and putting it back together, it's not any problem at all, maybe a 5 minute process at the most, and that includes a quick cleaning. I installed a tandemkross magazine disconnect bushing and the mag's drop freely, and the...

    What Do You All Think About the SR9c ????

    I have both the SR9C and the SR40C. They are great shooting pistols. The 9C my daughter has is probably the most accurate compact pistol I've shot. It just absolutely flat out hits where you are aiming! I plan on using my 40 for my carry gun, and it is identical in size to the 9C and they both...

    Messed up my 22/45

    After a Magazine disconnect mod, It is a breeze to take apart and put back together. Just remember to make sure the hammer is flat when you put the bolt back in. Put the magazine in, put the mainspring back in and make sure it is fully through the bolt and receiver while holding the gun upside...

    pardon my ignorance...

    I bought the SR40C and absolutely love it. I also have a XDM 40 Compact. The SR40C has quickly become my favorite between the 2. The Ruger has a much better trigger and for some reason, a little less felt recoil. I have only put 200 rounds through the SR40C so far, but no FTF or FTE's at all and...

    American rifle 22lr - scope help for beginner

    I know its a poor picture, but had to make due with my old cell phone since I can't find my good camera at the moment. The scope is really clear and so far the accuracy is great. The .22 Ruger American is a really good shooting .22.

    American rifle 22lr - scope help for beginner

    The Bushnell AR 22 has side parallax adjustment and it works really well. I leave it at 25 yards when squirrel or rabbit hunting. When I go to the range, I adjust it according to the distance to the target. Very simple, and it works. With the AR22 w/BDC, my first dot is at 50 yards, 2nd at 75...

    SR40C Question

    Thanks. Took about two minutes to get it done and reassembled. Much Easier now.

    SR40C Question

    I just purchased a SR40C Stainless. I noticed where several people have removed the mag. disconnect safety. I disassembled my gun and gave it a good cleaning to remove all of the shipping grease etc. I noticed that on the back of the striker Plate on the slide, there is no small hole to push in...

    MIII 22/45 Lite Cobalt

    This was one of my Christmas presents to myself! I really love shooting this thing. I was actually hitting the "gong" at 100 yards this weekend with it using CCI Blazer's and Winchester Bulk ammo. I'm loving the accuracy of this gun/sight combo.

    Messed up my 22/45

    The first time I took mine apart I had the same problem at the end. I couldn't get the slide to rack either. I finally made sure the magazine was fully seated, pulled the trigger a couple of times, held it and then the mag release would work. I dropped the mag enough to get the mainspring back...

    American rifle 22lr - scope help for beginner

    I put a Bushnell AR 22 Dropzone BDC 2-7x32 on my American Rimfire and it works great, a lot better than I anticipated. I used a 1 piece base/rail that I found at http://www.diproductsinc.com/ that fits the Ruger American Rimfire perfectly. I used some QD rings and the combination is very good. I...

    Holster for 22/45 lite w/rail and reflex sight

    I just purchased a Black Dog Ruger MK holster to fit my 22/45 lite with rail and reflex sight. It fits perfectly! Retention is adjustable and it holds the gun perfectly. I read a few reviews that said it wouldn't fit with the rail on without some modifications, however it fits mine without any...
