- Please excuse the long pauses and lack of proper technical terminology. I was running on 4 hours of sleep when I made this video. I hope it's helpful, any questions don't hesitate to ask. PS - Yes I'm half italian and tend to talk with my hands

I was ready to pay a gunsmith to save my wife's MK3 until I saw this video. I went through hours of frustration and 3 instructional videos, with no luck. That was including the Ruger dude and the 16 second dude. Your hammer up and hanging dingus steps saved the day. You are awesome!
Dave Neff Thats excellent, thanks for the kind words. Glad the video saved the day for you.
This is the smartest breakdown of the Ruger Mark III that I have seen BRILLIANT. Thank you so much for a great explanation. Certainly worthy of this fine gun. This dispells the other attemps at explaining this really simple process. Only 4 steps to field strip this gun and in Less than 30 seconds. Take it down with time to spare and NO tools other than maybe a paper clip. 60 seconds to put it back together and no paper clip😏 Thanks Great Job
Ruger are you watching?
Best video on this subject. I got to this video every time! Thank you!
Stumbled across your video recently. I have struggled with reassembly of my MK III 22/5 for 6 years. Tried this immediately. Worked perfectly. Thanks.
This has to be the best and simplest way to re-assemble the Mark III.
Thank you very much for making this video, and spending 20min to figure out the simplest way. My Mark III is 8yrs old and still a little tight because I rarely shoot it. I can count with 3 fingers how many times I shot this firearm🙃only because of the re-assembly being such a PITA, if fact I almost sold it because of that, but decided to keep it. Now I'm so glad I did thanks to your video! Very, Very Good Job on this Video Asha E. 👍👍👍
The part about the mag release and the hammer being/staying vertical was outstanding. A necessary addition to many other videos. Good job. Thanks.
Asah, Goodman, dissambled and reblued my Mark III, was ready to use it as a gooes decoy achor. Watched numerous re-assemble video's with limied success. Came across yours, and it was the ticket to get that pistol back together. Turning the pistol up as your described and compress the spring was the ticket. Thank You Much...
My Ruger is from the early 1970s. I called it my shoe string disassembly. I just looped a string around the lever to pull it out, not your screw driver pry out. I still have it today.
To fix the hammer, too far forward, just insert the mag and the hammer can be moved back or anywhere you want.
Thanks for the vid. This has been the only time I did not have to struggle getting it back together.
Great job. Best way to do it hands down. Good job bro!
Asah, I have watched all the videos and how to reassemble this gun and have found yours to be the easiest of all. There are many ways to do this, but yours works the best for me. I saved it to watch every time I reassemble mine. Thanks for taking the time to record this for us who don't shoot the same gun all the time and need a refresher some times.
I agree! Yours is the best Ruger MKIII video. Thank you very much!
Това е най разбираемото и най правилно обучаемо видео за разглобяване и сглобяване на Марк 3. От тук се научих да разглобявам и сглобявам пистолета си за броени секунди без никакъв проблем, защото тука е показано и обяснено в какво положение трябва да е чука и положението на лоста му спрямо отверстието на бойната пружина.
A MILLION THANK YOUS FROM THE YEAR 2021!!!
✨🙏🏽✨
I've seen the other video Asah was talking about and ...it IS A PAIN. Asah, you made this dead simple...THANK YOU!!!!!! Sadly, there is always a sadly, I've got just enough of a mismatch in my bolt/frame pin holes to make it a major swear word event, blunt instruments are quite often required.
ASAh thank you so much for the method to get my gun assembled. It worked and I Appreciate you posting this process..
I can't believe this video has ANY thumbs down. This makes assembly incredibly simple. I spent 2 decades having to step through the dozen steps in the Ruger manual to reassemble my Mark 2. After watching this video, I can do so from memory in about 5 seconds. Thank you!!!!!!
Thanks very much! Glad I could help you! I almost forgot this vid existed. I can’t believe how many views it has now!
Those are communist tears. Let them be upset!
Everyone told me that was a pain in the but to disassembly the MARK III, with your video it was as simple as my 1911, thanks a lot.
As much as I love my Mark III that disassembly isn't too tough but reassembly can be a frigging nightmare. That is why mine has had the kit put in it that solves the problem. Now one allen wrench and no problems.
Of course it figures that after years of that faulty design, after I buy mine, the Mark IV comes out with the new improvements.
I got so frustrated that I threw all the parts into a shoe box and took it in to my smith. When he lifted the lid and saw it, he laughed and said that he gets about one or two a month that show up in a box. He then showed me how to reassemble it and some small tricks, just like you did here. He never charged me a cent either. Nice video. Shame on Ruger for making it so difficult.
Not a polished presentation with drawings and photos but ... The best explaination, demonstration yet. Thank you. 👍
Thanks a ton for being the shortest most concise video on how to assemble/re-assemble the Mark III. The only part I struggled with was the dang dingus, once I finally got it, I practiced your technique a couple of times and made sure I understood from your video where the dingus needed to be and was able to get the dingus in the right place every time. Practice is key at least for me. I have a Mark IV too and Ruger really improved the take down of the Mark series handguns with the Mark IV. However, the Mark III is not hard to get apart and put back together as long as you learn the correct way to do it and Asah E., you nailed it.
That’s excellent, thanks for the kind words. Much appreciated. Glad the vid and my semi coherent explanation was helpful for you lol I think I should do another one in HD some day.
Sir, I don't know if you still look at the comments after all this time, but you helped me out immensely. Thank you so much for this video. Just got my Mark 3 today and want to learn the gun. Disassembly no problem, assembly was a bitch until your video. If I could, I would buy you a bottle of fine Bourbon for your help.
Just seeing this two years later lol Thanks for the kind words. So glad I could help!
Great Job on the video sir. I love my Mark III. Don't shoot it as much as I like to because the take down is (or was) such a pain. You made it simple in your explanation. Thank you.
Thanks for the help! The magazine release lever is never explained in other vids.
Nice video. You not only helped me understand what to do, but why it works that way.
Video was great. I followed step-by-step and all went very smoothly with my Mark 3. Thanks for offering these condensed, and clear, instructions.
You're welcome, thanks for the kind words. Glad it was helpful for you!
Best video I’ve seen. Your technique actually works. Thank you
Excellent, excellent video. I fight with my MK3 every time I take it apart. This video made it simple. Thanks!
Great video,the only thing I would add is instead of using a screwdriver to open the lever and take a chance of scratching up your gun I use an empty .22 case or a paper clip slipped over it and pull out. On a new gun I (very carefully) used a dead blow hammer. Like he said after taken apart a few times you probably won’t need it. It’s like pouring piss out of a boot. It ain’t that hard,just turn it upside down. The directions is on the heel. This video did make the task a whole lot easier. GOD BLESS!!!!! SHOOT SAFE!!!!!
Thank you so much. This has simplified the Ruger Mark Series disassembly and reassembly.
Great video. This is the best way yet.
best vid I've seen on this subject!
Outstanding video. I just tried it and it worked flawlessly. Ty very much!!!
Thanks!
You made a royal pain into a fairly easy task.
Thank you!!. I watched 2-3 other video's and was about to give up in frustration before I came to yours where you provided a great tip for the final assembly. I will definitely watch again after my next cleaning!!
Thanx very much for the kind words! Glad the video was helpful to you.
Excellent instructional video! Thanks for sharing!!
Excellent video on the Mark disassembly.
Had my Mark III Hunter for several years. Still get frustrated with re-assembly. Issue is always the hammer. It does not move smoothly, Your video is my go to. You provide an alternate technique that is very helpful. Still my favorite pistol. It shoots so well that I’ll keep it. I did however, buy my daughter the Mark IV. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for the great info.
Nice video. another way to do it. it seems like i use this gun once a year and clean it after use so it's always a learning experience. I took my time this time without my factory instructions. i leave the barrel off to see what was happening a little bit better. what i learned tonite what the problem i was having was when putting the main spring housing back in the hammer would be in the way to allow the top of the main spring housing to continue to pivot in and also keeping the dowl completely in the hole. to correct this you pull the trigger while continuing to push the main spring housing all the way in and keeping in all the way while also paying attention to the orientation of the gun to keep the lever out and away from the pin to line up with grove in main spring housing.
That was VERY WELL done! Thank you very much. I am aware the pistol is difficult to break down and reassemble, and I'm sure I will be revisiting this video often!
Thanks very much for the kind words. I thank you for your service in the marine core. Hope the video helps you. Be sure to share it with any other friends that might be interested.
Wow great explanation
Very interesting, I will try this.
This was an excellent video. Thanks.
You're welcome, glad I could help!
The "dingus" is the hammer strutt, and I have had lots of trouble with it and didn't know that the mk111 could be put together this way but the next time I clean my pistol, I'm going to give this method a try.
Interesting. Your method of assembly is a little different then what I do. I have never seen it done ur way but I like it. Completely different but seems to work better with much less hassle.
Excellent, Thank You!!!!
It's a key for the internal safety. If you watch the ruger mark 111 video from ruger, about 50 seconds into the video it shows it.
Great video. much easier to understand.
Nice. Thank you
To get spring tension you can also just press the trigger in to push back the "dingus"
Terrific ! A lot easier.
Awesome!
Very Good !
Thank you Asah E, I was about to sell my Mark III for cheap and buy the new Mark IV
Me too. This video benefitted my sanity and bank account.
These videos would be better if there was no talking. Thanks for the info. Just fired 5k rounds through a can and now it malfunctions every shot. This was a big help thanks
A new way that looks easier to assemble.
"A DIngus"....Always wondered what that thing hanging down there was called.
Dude done good 👍
Watched a couple of videos before this...not helpful
Had it together before this vid. Ended!
Thanks for the compliment! Much appreciated. Hard to believe I’m still getting comments on this vid so many years later. Glad it helped you out man 👍🏻🤘🏻
I cannot fit the main spring housing into the dowel for the life of me and I am about to sell my gun, I followed all the steps is there anything else you would suggest
I am not an experienced pistol owner, so please excuse this question if it's ignorant: I thought it was not a good idea to 'dry-fire' a rimfire pistol. Is it a bad idea to pull the trigger on this gun if it's empty? Should a snapcap or something like that be used when pulling the trigger to start the dis-assembly process?
+Steve Gendler That's true for a lot of guns, but this particular one is ok to dry fire.
Wow, $350! good deal
Awesome.or just get a mark 4 there fucking amazing
Do you need the safety key to disassemble the mark3?
There is no safety key that I am aware of.
I don't see why they can't make a 22lr pistol that works like a normal pistol. The only one on the market that I know of is the Jennings or Jimenez arms 22lr.
mình rất muốn mua lại khẩu súng này của bạn,bạn có thể bán cho tôi không vậy
lol"... after you said "im going to do this off camera because its a pain in the ass" thats all i needed to know not to get this pistol.
Volume is too low. Hard to hear you
Cut the crap, there is no easy way!
I am glad you like your gun . As for myself this is a piece of shit to me. Not sure why they made it so had to take apart. I will never buy another ruger auto gun again. I have a ruger 10 shot revolver and its a great gun better than the piece of SHIT gun from ruger. !
Lots of history…. Get to work
Dude … you should have dropped your magazine and pulled back the slide before you even started your video . Very dangerous
If the safety nazi in you really needs to know, I did exactly that and I have always done that before I handle a firearm especially inside the home. I then locked it back with the mag in so that I could show the empty chamber for the video. This video is 10 years old and has 94,000 reviews and hundreds of comments, yet your the first asshole to even try to tell me I’m being unsafe. Congratulations, you get the asshole award. There is absolutely nothing unsafe about this video. Try again.
if your going to make video ----do it right -----no excuses--- why even make video ?
