    What Ammo does your MK3 like best?

    Without a doubt, Federal AutoMatch is the best I've used in my MKIII. Good luck with your pistol!

    SR22P Illegal in California?

    The SR22P is no longer on California's approved handgun list. My local range also had to send back to Ruger all their new and rental SR22Ps. Anybody know the reason?

    Tumbler Died

    Harbor Freight no. 67617 5 Lb. Metal Vibrator/Tumbler on sale now for 54.99. I have used this for a few years and it does a fine job. They also have an 18lb. model no. 96923 for 149.99. Most of these tumblers are made by the same guy in China. The only differences are the labels and the prices.

    P95 Crack? Brand new gun, should I worry?

    My P95 DC (manufactured around 2001) does not have any hint of a crack or blemish in that area. I shot many rounds through it.

    misfire and case/rim separation

    Hangfire, Thanks for your suggestion. I'm sorry I didn't notice your post until now. Anyhow, you're right...that space does clog up with residue and I will pay closer attention to it.

    New Member and needing info/advice

    Irishreign, I have never regretted buying my MKIII in stainless steel with the bull barrel. If you do buy a new MKIII, my one piece of advice is to use the "slingshot method" to release the bolt after insertion of a loaded magazine. Other users, including myself, have damaged the bolt stop by...

    Miwall ammo

    I shoot Miwall .38 and .357 often and I've never had any problems with it. The price is hard to beat.

    Broken coil spring on new mark III

    I had that same spring break when my MKIII was fairly new. Ruger sent me a new one and it still works fine after thousands of rounds.
