    Purty! I'm going to build a suppressed Mark III one of these days.

    What do you think of the Tactical solutions PacLite barrels and suppressors?

    Paclites are well built, but you still need to have a ruger lower to use theirs unless they are selling complete guns now. To me its too pricey of a setup just to save weight when you essentially have to have 2 guns to buil one.

    You cant go wrong with a Paclite though, very well made and pretty accurate. :thumbsup:

    Im not a fan of their cound suppressors, I have seen a few that are not machined right and they cause baffle strikes, remove the can and put on another manufactured and no ballfe strikes.
