    Ruger P345 45 ACP

    Got the 19lb hammer spring installed and so far have 300 rounds thru it with zero issues. This is becoming one of my favorite hand guns

    SR45 Trigger

    My wife has a sr45 and the trigger is great out of the box. I did remove the mag safety and that helped. It is bone stock and will probably stay that way.

    mk 2 22/45 help

    Yes it is functioning as designed. Found a youtube video with a slingshot mod for the 22/45. What had me scratching my head was that the owners manual says it can be done. I guess they use the same for both the 22/45 and the standard series. In case anyone was wondering the 22/45 has a...

    mk 2 22/45 help

    I have a mk2 22/45 that was lnib when I got it. Looked to have been fired very little if at all. My issue is I can not slingshot the bolt closed. Feeds fires and ejects perfectly. Insert empty mag and pull the bolt back and it will lock. After the last round is fired the bolt locks back every...

    I just read a depressing thought on another forum

    I would think a call to Ruger may help answer the questions. I am not going to debate the quality or lack of concerning MIM parts. We do enough of that on the 1911 forum. My question is. If you are against mim parts would it not be more cost effective to buy say a dan wesson with way less...

    MKII 22/45

    I seem to be lucky finding nib rugers lately. p89, p345, and now a mk2 22/45 stainless target with the short tapered barrel. A lgs had it listed as a mk3 but after looking closely it was a mk2. Still had the qc sticker on the frame. Serial number dates to 93 production. Now for the best...

    Ruger P345 45 ACP

    I found a lnib ssp345 a few months ago. I did not "clean" the rear sight I removed the mag safety :D Also put in a heavier recoil spring and extra power mag springs from wolff. Have a 19# hammer spring on the way. Stock it was a good gun but a few bucks for springs will turn it into a...

    357 mag 125gr question

    I remember reading that feeding your gun a steady diet of 125grn 357mags was not good for the gun. Is this just internet myth or is this really an issue? The gun in question in a 6 inch gp100.

    7-Shot GP-100?

    Well I guess since they fixed the issue it is time to buy one. I wanted the 7 shot but played it safe and got the 6 because of these issues. Now I have to buy another ruger revolver poor me :D

    Blackhawk cylinder throats

    Doug just did my gp100. I posted about it in the double action section. Don't waste your time with the rental just send it to Doug if you are just doing one gun.

    Praise for Doug guy

    Have a gp100 that would lead worse than a Flint MI water pipe and shot patterns instead of groups. Throats were tight and could not push a lead bullet thru them. Sent the cylinder off to fellow member DougGuy so he could work his magic. While that was getting done I did a full polish on the...

    ruger to compete with sig P365

    I agree the rap is a good gun I was looking for something like an xds size or a lc9 in 45

    Is cylinder reaming necessary for average shooter?

    Just sent my cylinder to Doug. After everything I read here I have no doubts in the quality of his work. What is required to clean up the forcing cone??

    P345 mag question

    I was gifted a p90 ruger mag with the plastic follower. Will this work in the p345? I have heard there can be problems with the mag disconnect safety.

    SITUATION FIXED—-SHOP RUGER IS A JOKE!!!!Who to contact?????

    I had ordered a set of grips that got lost in shipping. They promptly sent out another set. The next day the first set showed up in the mail. They called me, sent emails and snail mail trying to get me to return the extra set. I never did reply. If its any consolation I screwed them back...
