Someone near Ottawa - Ruger MKII Help

[Andy]

I need to run through disassembly/assembly to install a new sear and for future cleaning. I've reviewed the text with pictures and a couple of videos, but holy crap there are 30 or so separate pieces that all have to be fitted just so!

Anyone out there who can guide me through it?

You just to take it apart didn't you!?!??

It is a lesson you will not soon forget. My first time... somewhere around 1 1/2 hours... and I cursed so much my wife didn't speak to me for two days... but I love my Ruger. It's only a dam .22, it doesn't have to be kept that clean.

The gun is a snap to put together... except for that last pin.
I had the assembly manual and it still took me forever to get that @#$%^^& pin in place.

Nope - it's still together, but it needs a good cleaning, and I want to install a new sear.

There are two kinds of genius: those who can make something that's functional and reliable, but extremely simple (the Tokarev TT-33); and those who can make something functional and reliable, but very complex (the Ruger).
