Ruger MKII 22/45 Question Login/Join

I shot my 22/45 yesterday and it was pretty good fun. I decided that a few more magazines would make it even more fun.

Does anyone know if MK III or MK IV 22/45 mags will work in a MK II ?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Magazines seem to be backwards compatible. I removed the mag safety in my mkIII so older mags will also function. I also enjoy the mkii 22/45. The 4" bull barrel version seems to hard to find

Thanks for the link. I read something on another site that sounded similar .

Mine is a slab side barrel competition target model. 6-7" barrel. Spent some time adjusting the sights yesterday. A target shooter, competition or no, I am not!

You made me look at my mags. Most of mine are mkii but I do have a few mkiii (indicated by the cut out at the top to activate the mag safety) but mkii mags can have either knurled or smooth buttons. I believe I read the base on the mkiv changed so may not fit perfect in your mkii 22/45. Mkiii should be cheaper than mkii.

You forgot to post a picture of your weapon sir Wink

Yes, the MK III mags will work in my Mk II 22/45.

Also check out www.rugerforum.net as another option for answers to anything Ruger. A friend recently bought a newly Ruger 22/45 Tactical and immediately fell in love with it.

IMHO, Ruger semi autos, Ruger revolvers and Henry lever action rifles make excellent .22lr stable mates.

I love my 22/45! Bought it new in 2000 for $240.00. Haven't had an issue, ever. 5" bull barrel & I don't mind breaking it down for cleaning or reassembly. Superbly accurate too.
