Working on a Ruger MK3 Hunter

[340six]

Recommend anyone Metaire / Kenner?
I want the Hammer bushing changed out with a new one so the Mag does not need to be in it.
The larger bushing gets put in and the spring taken out, Plus it makes the stock trigger better
And would like the insert put in to replace the LCI.
Any Ideas on cost?

I did this myself on mine. Really didn't take that long. Just find a good video on youtube and have at it. Save the cash and spend it on gear!

My phone is slow at the moment but go to rimfirecenteral.com and search (Sam Bushing) and SGW gunsmith. I can't recall the piece but it wasnt much.
I've done my MKll and MKlll I wouldn't go any other way. It also improves the trigger pull.

+ 1 on Sam's bushing. I have two from him and they are great. He mails quickly also.

I'd strongly urge you to go ahead and change out the trigger and put in a Volquartsen adjustable, while you have it disassembled to change out the bushing. The difference is amazing. Lots of tutorials out there, here's one for changing the bushing:

One point: when you disassemble, try not to dislodge the safety. There's a spring and ball bearing that's somewhat difficult to figure out where it came from and to put back together.

I have the Bam guys Bushing already, http://bushing.webs.com/
And the Bruce Guys SS Filler. That is on rimfirecentral.com
I Now have the MK3 after years of shooting a MK-2 Bull. My Brother has it now.
Main thing was to get the Mk-3 like the 3 Was no LCI and no mag dance to dissemble Clean. Or when shooting, have it be the same as the old gun was.
Read that the Bushing would make the trigger somewhat better.
Kinda short on cash and was waiting to do the Trigger and Sear as well at the same time but wondered if it was worth it.
I was also thinking! After some thought that I did not want top brake the gun putting the LCI filler or bushing in and would be worth paying a shop to do it.
Verses Using that $ for a new trigger/sear.
Thus me starting the thread
Maybe I should wait, and get the trigger/sear do the whole 9 Yards and pay someone as well.
Installing and adjusting the trigger and swapping it is above my skill set.

I second the Volquartsen parts. The instal is very easy, just takes a little time and YouTube. Save the money and buy the parts.
