MK II Gov't Target Model 6 7/8

[SoCal1911]

Newbie here, SoCal1911.
I have read that MK II Gov't Target Model 6 7/8 were produced with a little extras by Ruger. Could not find much as to what extras Ruger did on this model. I have had mine since 1992 when I purchased it new, just is a great shooter. Does have a good / better trigger when I compare it to two others MK IIs (different models) that I received from my wife's family.
Can you let me know what Ruger did to these over their other models, if anything.
Thanks for the info.

I have one, much like yours and about the same age, but I do not
remember them having any special work/parts. Seems I do remember
that the "Government Target" received a fair amount of TLC that the
other production MK-IIs didn't. At least mine shoots that way. :wink:

I thought I'd read that they have either a overtravel or take up screw, but mine doesn't. The factory trigger is pretty sweet though.

.......... The factory trigger is pretty sweet though.

You might think so, but if you put in a Volquartsen kit, you'll change your opinion real quick.

I've thought about it. I'd like to find one of the old style Volq. triggers. I don't like the looks of the current ones. If I can find a good deal on one of the old style I probably would upgrade just the trigger.
