Ruger pistols, Light weights. Take a Remkngton 550 apart and put it toeather again or change a firing pin in a M-100 Winchester. You will spend some money with Brownell , purchse books and find a piece of 3/8 od copper tubing to get the recoil springs in correctly.
M-1911 or a US Rifle Cal. 30 is the easiest way to go.
Try them.

The Ruger MKIII has TWO extraneous parts that can be left out in re-assembly. I “forgot” to put the magazine disconnect back in and it works better than before. This makes putting the thing back together much easier.

Here is an essential first step which I learned from a friend who was rebuilding an old carburetor. He had placed a white sheet over the bed and neatly laid out all the parts when SuzieQ came in and jumped on the bed to help him. First Step: always put the cat outside.
