Why did they have to make disassembly so dang tough on the Ruger MKIII so difficult. My old MKII 22/45 came apart so easily, I pulled the MKIII Target apart today to clean it up and man o' man what a pain. I understand how to disassemble it and have no issues with that but all the fits are so tight it's crazy. You have to really heft on the pin to yank it out...the square lug to barrel fit is so tight it will take a mallet to pop that off. It boggles my mind how each generation of these Ruger .22's is slightly more inconvenient than the last. I bet if they had given .001 more clearance it would be an easy task.
Anybody else suffering the same way their MKIII? I'm debating sending the thing back to Ruger to see if they can do something with it before I did the frame or barrel up.
