New .22 target/varmint spoon
Ruger 22/45 Target Pistol.vBeen looking at picking up one of these for awhile. Friend bought one, never fired it, then sold to me. For the price, it has a nice feel when firing and extremely accurate. The sights are removable so you can add a scope.

When break it down the first time to clean, make sure you get smart on reassembly since, if the 22/45 is like the MK II, it is a bit tricky and takes patience. Enjoy! How to put a Ruger 22/45 back together? - 1911Forum

A scope on a 22 target pistol is an oxymoron. As in like WHAT FOR? She will do quite fine just the way she is...and that is shoot better than you can .

Target gun.......
You might want to consider a nice set of walnut (or other wood) target grips. They should help you be more accurate and are easy to change back when desired. Besides, a set of custom grips makes the piece more "personal".

That looks more like a Mk I/II/III than a 22/45

Cleaning a 22/45, Mark I,II,III: Soak in a bucket of kerosene, swish around, hang up to dry.

Thanks for all of the input. I don't intend to put a scope on it, just pointing out that a person could.
And yes it is a Mark III 22/45.

I have never taken mine apart, just blast it out a can of carb or brake cleaner then oil it up. Run a bore-snake down the barrel with some Hoppes and call it a day.

And sgammo.com has Fed AutoMatch in stock right now... kinda pricey, but if you need it they have it.

Nice. They are pretty easy to to take apart. And once you know how, pretty easy to put back together again.

Kurt, that is not a 22/45 handle. If your barrel is marked that it is, someone has changed grip frames.
