I have seen videos on U-Tube where they modify the Mark IIIs to fit. I have not tried it yet. If I had both a Mark I and Mark III I might try it, looks like you could easily end up with a paper weight though. I am waiting on Ruger to get caught up again on Mark I mags to order a couple new ones. Mark II mags will fit, just might have to change the thumb button to the other side. Only real difference is Mark I mags are 9 shot with a chrome end plug, and Mark II mags are 10 shot with a black end cap. Replacement Mark I mags can be easily modified to 10 shot though.
