Good Saturday
Picked up my new Ruger Hunter at Gunrunner's in Frederick yesterday morning (it's exciting to be "Not Disapproved").
Went to Cresap to break it in. I'd heard some stories about them needing some break-in, but it worked flawlessly! I also found that after 100 rds from the Mark III and focusing on trigger control and breathing, that my groups from my SA 1911 were better than ever. (don't get me wrong, not good - just good for me!). Talked to one of the RSO's for a few minutes, weather was nice... Just a good start to a day!

Thanks! I've been wanting one for a while. One main reason is to introduce new shooters, so now I can start my recruiting drive!

 not pink. I just had the wrong white balance set and was in a hurry. I knew it didn't look quite right...Since my daughter will be one of the main shooters, she might like a pink one though! __________________ A system of licensing and registration is the perfect device to deny gun ownership to the bourgeoisie. -- Vladimir Ilyich Lenin _____________________________ SA 1911A1 Mil-Spec Ruger Mark III Hunter Ruger Single-Six 22LR/22WMR Walther P-38 SA 1903 with custom stock Marlin 336 Ithaca 37 On the horizon - AR build maybe and I think I need a CZ75 NRA Member MSI Member |

Ruger makes some great handguns you will be very happy with it.
I have an older ruger mark 2 with bull barrel. I love shooting it, very fun and and cheap. You say you have a 1911? Did you know you can get a 22 long rifle conversion kit for it. |
