I have wanted a 10-inch, or so, Ruger pistol for years. Since I have Mk. IIIs (with Mk. II sears), I would want my long-barreled pistol to be a Ruger Mk. III. Ruger has not offered such a long barrel for several Marks. The clam shell receiver is thin walled, and barrel is extremely tightly screwed?? to receiver.
Were a stripped Mk. III receiver available, barrel installation is probably doable. Replacing barrel on existing pistol would be dicey at best. Is anyone doing the job? OR is anyone capable of doing the job?
