Gosh ....and I wanted a Ruger Mklll..........
N E V E R take a C-96 BROOMHANDLE MAUSER apart It's a PITA, I had to call an EXPERT in that gun to put it together
Gosh ....and I wanted a Ruger Mklll..........
If you want the easy way around the Ruger, then I recommend the Majestic Arms Speed Strip. I've been putting them in all my Ruger .22s since the mid-90s. Tell, Dino, Kirk said "hi".

I had put the magazine in backwards and it jammed in the well. I took the grips off, tried everything, and realized that the only way to get the mag out now is to completely disassemble the pistol. I'm not about to do that, since I couldn't even put the bolt and mainspring housing assembly back together properly.
So my new Mark III paperweight is in a box waiting to be sent back to Ruger for repair and reassembly as a pistol again. The service rep said, "Oh no, don't try it yourself. It's even hard for the techs to do that. You have to start by taking all the pins out of the pistol and completely disassemble it."
Yep, I've got one of those too.
I took it apart; once.
Now I settle for just dumping CLP into it when it acts up. Its a target pistol, so if it jams occasionally, I'll deal with it. Its easier than trying to take it apart.
One of the best .22 pistols out there....except for this whole "disassembly" thing...

We have a winner, I swapped triggers on mine, "reassembled" it 4 times and OMG it's still not right. It works but the trigger has to be pushed forward between shots. I am not taking it apart again to fix it...Personally - Kel-Tec SUB2000. Ask KEHO about that one.
IMO, the only trick to the Mark III is to remember that the hammer has to be forward/uncocked to take it apart and rearward/cocked to put it together.
Walther P-22 A ROYAL pita to reassemble.....
Ruger MK3, TARGET model....tighter tolerances than the standard models, good luck
