Great guns, I'm sure you'll be very happy with your purchase. You may want to consider getting rid of the Magazine Disconnect though, there is a couple of ways to do it. There is a guy named Sam Lam over at rimfire central that sells a new Ruger Mark III hammer bushing for $11 shipped. The bushing replaces the old hammer bushing and magazine disconnect, this makes disassembly/reassembly easier and makes empty magazines drop freely from the gun. A worthwhile investment and you retain the old parts in case it needs to go back to Ruger for some reason.
