Ruger Mk II Government Target

The secret to a good trigger on the more recent Ruger target models is having an overtravel stop. I've found that a trigger shoe positioned correctly will do the trick. The Mark I models had an internal overtravel adjustment that took some trouble to get to and adjust correctly. The newer models just need a lot of shooting for the trigger to smooth out with no creep, and the trigger shoe is a quick and easy solution to overtravel. Here's a trigger shoe that I installed on my Mark IV right after I got it:



It turns out that the Mark II Government shown above combines absolute reliability with incredible accuracy. I love the 41, but oh you kid with the Ruger.

Works for me!
