    Bought .22 ammo at Wal-Mart lately?

    Filling in the lettering with color

    Way back in the 60's I had a '61 Impala 2DHT. Because of the rear coil springs the only way to get the a$$ end up to fit bigger tires was to swap out for station wagon coils and coil over shocks. Good for about 2" of lift. Airlifts back then were very expensive and prone to leaking, but you...

    Filling in the lettering with color

    Before the a$$ high look there was the nose high drag car look. It wasn't easy. Some guys drove those coil spring wedges in the front springs and added sandbags to the trunk.

    Pros/cons of 22/45 and/or MkIII barrel options

    Go with the 5.5 bull. IMHO, best MKIII, especially with the replacement grip panels. Not my choice for serious bullseye shooting, but the 5.5 bull barrel is a good choice for all around plinking.

    Marvel Ruger MkI/MkII Match Trigger Question

    Thanks Bullseye, I have since been told Marvel no longer makes the trigger, so I may try and locate a used one. Once you installed the Marvel trigger, was there much lateral play?

    Mark III competition?

    The wait for pistol work from Clark can be months. Best to call and talk to Clay before making any decisions. Clark does sell complete pistols, but you may have to wait a year to get one.
