Mec-Gar Ruger MkIII Magazine

Ruger Mark III .22 LR Mag

This Mec-Gar magazine holds 10 rounds of .22 Long Rifle and fits Ruger Mark III and Mark IV pistols. Most Mark-series owners shoot a lot of cheap rimfire ammunition, and two or three factory magazines run out fast on a range day. A steel spare built to the pistol's own contour gives you more loaded mags on the bench and fewer stops to refill.

Features

• 10-Round .22 LR Capacity — The single-column tube holds ten .22 Long Rifle cartridges stacked one above the other.
• Ruger Mark III And Mark IV Fit — The magazine is sized and shaped for both Ruger Mark III and Mark IV pistols.
• Heat-Treated Carbon Steel Body — Heat treatment hardens the carbon steel tube so the feed lips hold their shape through repeated loading.
• Blued Oxide Finish — A blue-oxide coating, the traditional dark finish used on gun steel, protects the body against corrosion.
• Anti-Friction Interior Coating — The inside walls are coated to reduce drag, so the follower and cartridges move up the tube smoothly.
• Music Wire Spring — High tensile music wire, a hard-drawn spring steel, keeps steady pressure on the stack from the first round to the last.
• Polymer Follower With Thumb Button — A button on the side of the polymer follower lets you pull it down with your thumb, which makes loading rimfire rounds much easier.
• Drop-Free Design — The tapered steel box falls clear of the grip when you press the magazine release, so reloads are quicker.
• Black Polymer Baseplate — The flat polymer baseplate gives you a firm surface to seat the magazine with the heel of your hand.

Construction And Fit

Mec-Gar builds this magazine around a carbon steel tube tapered to match the contour of the Ruger Mark III magwell, the opening in the grip where the magazine seats. A long slot down the side shows the follower position, so you can check at a glance how many rounds remain. Internals are a music wire spring and a polymer follower, and the whole body carries a blued finish under a black polymer baseplate.
