Mk II Bull Barrel Receiver Wrench/Holding Fixture

[ArmCoGuard82348]

Does anyone know of a company or manufacturer that has available for retail sales a receiver wrench or receiver holding fixture for a Ruger MK II bull barrel pistol? Back story on this pistol; I purchased it from the original owner you had installed a aftermarket barrel, also received the original factory bull barrel it came installed with as new from Ruger. I want to remove the aftermarket barrel and reinstall the original factory bull barrel it came with as new. Thanks for any information you can provide.

You need a barrel vice and a action wrench for the ruger.

I bet a gunsmith could do the job for less than the cost of the tools.

If both barrels are true bull barrels (cylindrical), I've had excellent luck using standard round stock holding fixtures for this sort of task (ER collet blocks).

The the tool to hold and protect the reciever is sometimes available at Brownells website. They currently show as being out of stock. The tool is expensive if you buy the whole tool. I just bought the head and made my own handle and used my own bolts / cap screws. Your best bet would be to take it to a gunsmith and have them do the swap.
