I just talked to Mick. He's doing well. His son is recovering  but still has a ways to go. He will probably be in thereapy for the next year.

Post by mick on 06/28/11 at 11:16:51

not me in therpy,my son.
Yes I got back a few weeks ago but had to get over my depression,I hate leaving my kids knowing it will be another year before I see them,and at my age another year could be a bit iffy.
I had a great time , and the mormons didn't try and recrute me, talk about flogging a dead horse.
My kids chipped in and got me a little pistol fo Fathers day,most of you will recognize the "Ruger Mk 111" I allways wanted one because they look so much like the old german "Luger" and they are just to spendy.
Did you know there is no waiting period in Utah ?  you can walk in buy the gun and walk out with it, their is some form filling out ,but thats it.
below is a picture of the little beast,the mags hold 10 shots.

I have the 22/45 Target model. These are guns that will last a lifetime. Shoots Federal Bulk 525 HP's fine and at $19 a box, it's good when funds are low and I want to shoot a few hundred rounds at cans, jugs of all sorts, potatoes and other rotten veggies, fruits or foodstuffs 8-)

Mick, Serowbot, Joe and anyone else with that ruger, you NEED one of these:

Here is a link to the website:

I think I got mine from here, but there are other places I am sure.  Be warned, however, it will cost you in the long run, you will burn alot more powder.  I can shoot them out as fast as my buddy can load them.   :D :D :D :D

Hey, Mick -

Get your butt back on here - who am I going to trade barbs with without you, the master at it?

Seriously, that pistol looks really cool.  What's the caliber?


Title: Re: Sir Mick...
Post by Serowbot on 06/28/11 at 12:45:09

That's a pretty snazzy loader!...
I have a sorta' plastic thumb assist thingy that goes over the clip to make pulling the spring down easier...
It's saved me a lot of blisters...

Nice Father's Day present!   I have both the Ruger 22 cal. and a 1942 Luger 9mm.  The Ruger is by far tons fun for "plinking" around, more reliable action, and cheaper ammo than the Luger.   :)

Has anyone tried one of those 22 cal conversion kits for M1911 ??  Just curious if they are worth the money.

I have a Colt Commander, and found that for the price of a conversion kit, add a few bucks more, and the Ruger was a better choice.

Welcome back Mick, and good score on the Ruger!  

We got a 1910 Luger in the family, knuckle action and all..  old Paw Paw had it in his nightstand when he kicked off.

Great to see you Mick.
Nice looking Ruger too.
Hugs, glad your back..  :-* :-* kim

Post by Midnightrider on 06/29/11 at 06:02:09

Nice gun Mick. When I was young and dumb I had a Ruger Mark 1 and sold it. Now that I'm old and dumb I want another one. Just bought a Ruger 10-22 last month. After I recover from that purchase I plan on getting a Mark III.

Title: Re: Sir Mick...
Post by bill67 on 06/29/11 at 10:47:12

A few years  back I bought a 10-22 at walmart, stainsteel and from walmart the barrel is 2 inches longer than if you bought it anywhere else.

Title: Re: Sir Mick...
Post by Serowbot on 06/29/11 at 10:51:50

I haven't been shooting for years...
Never find the time...
Now,... I'm gettin' itchy....

All your fault, Mick... ;D...

Less time than it does to load the clip, you slide the top open and just dump the bullets in, shake them around and they line up in a slot at the bottom.  No kidding, that thing is a trick with a hole in it. ;)

Post by photojoe on 06/30/11 at 19:29:05

Great for the Ruger, now if they only made one for a Marlin 795. Those mags are a real pita to load.

Title: Re: Sir Mick...
Post by joscswny on 07/01/11 at 10:47:19

This is a beautiful pistol.  Excellent for introduction to shooting instruction.

Mine eats anything I put through it from sub-sonic to super speed stuff.  

Finally learned how to put it back together with any kind of consistency.

Going to Cheaper than Dirt next stop.

No waiting in NH either.
