These grips fit either the Mark II (as is) or the Mark III
(by making a small notch on the front left grip for the
magazine release button). They are relieved at the
bottom for quicker removal of the magazine, and have a
pronounced thumb rest on the left grip, with anatomical
finger guiding surface on the right grip (not grooves,
which can disturb a particular size hand's grip).
This is a grip for target shooters who prefer not to use
a palm rest, similar to US Army Pistol team, but who like
the better fitting style of grip which normally comes with
a palm rest.
You will probably need to do a little work with a Dremel
on the backs, although 90% of the relief work has been
done already. The screw hole depth may or may not be the
same as your existing grip screws require, but generally
you can simply deepen the hole if the screws are not quite
long enough (best to turn the bit by hand in drill press
or use a t-handle chuck, to avoid drilling to fast and
deep by mistake). Screws are not provided. If you need
extras you can get them from the Ruger on-line parts
store or most any gunsmith shop.
You can use a round file or wrap 220 grit abrasive paper
around a dowel to make your own finger grooves, if you
wish. There is enough material so people with large hands
will have a comfortable grip. Smaller hands may benefit
by reducing the grip thickness, simply by sanding the
back side.
