TEST FIRE: Ruger Mark I and Mark II .22 pistols

[Adam Helmer]

By happenstance I became the owner of both a Ruger Mark I and a Mark II pistol. When it comes to .22 caliber handguns, I have been revolver-oriented for lo these MANY years. Now I have "New Think."

The Mark I is a heavy barrel with adjustable sights and that was an easy Zero. The Mark II has fixed sight that did not shoot where it looked until I drfited the rear sight and staked it in place for a 25 yard zero.

Unfortunately, semi-auto pistols are illegal for hunting in PA. With the zeros of both Ruger pistols, I can see an application for small game hunting and for chucks here on the farm. I like these Rugers more everyday. Who else likes Ruger .22 pistols?
