Hi Guys..
Through my wanderings on the net i came across this build, i like his work, i found the spring making, small mill work and anodizing very interesting. This guy has made a superb piece.

Ooof. How to spend a year. LoL Very nice job, but I will try to avoid projects that intense. I think fabricating the occasional replacement bolt or pin (if I can't find them pre-made at Numrich or Brownell is about as far as I want to go in that direction. He is quite right about the interplay of breech, magazine lips, feed ramp angles, slide mass, striker position and a half dozen other variables all being very critical in a reliable semi (or full) auto firearm. Giving him lots of credit as the .22 rim fire is considered one of the most difficult to get that balance just right on. It becomes much easier to get that balance right with FMJ straight rim cases like .380, 9mm, 40S&W, etc. BTW, I love my Ruger Mk I standard and never saw a need for something to replace it as a rabbit/groundhog pistol.

Superc......
I agree on the 22 rim-fire that's another reason why i found it interesting..... I think the Ruger 10/22 bolt assembly is flawless....it fires everything i shove through it without fouling... imho the best on the market for 22 rim fire plus the revolving clip.... :whip:

My first rifle was an early Rem Nylon 66. It shoots any 22 LR or Long I put in it, as fast just as the trigger can be pulled. Possibly one of the most reliable guns I have ever owned or shot (and the number is large). Durn tube magazine was it's only flaw. Fifty something years later I still have it and it still works like new. I gave a lot of thought to the Ruger 10/22 when that became available. Sadly larger calibers and bigger animals soon entered my life and I never did pick up one of the Ruger 10/22s. I do agree with you, they are phenomenal 22s. Were I a young adolescent again and if I had to choose between my beloved Nylon 66 and the Ruger 10/22 I very well may go for the Ruger. Of course Remington no longer makes the Nylon 66 so I guess that choice would be easy. :beer:
