....I was the lucky winner of a Ruger .22 Standard from 1952 that had a long history of neglect and misery....lonely and forlorn and abused in its earlier years,and in very rough shape....came to me from the wilds of Haystack Nebraska...
....with some expert advice (you know who you are 
)and a lil' bit of elbow grease I managed to get her back to a decent respectable condition (though I couldve probably gone further and done better,my aim wasnt to restore to new,but get her back to good shooting status)....a few hours ago I reassembled her with no problems at all,took her out back,and ran 2 10 round mags thru her without the slightest problem... 
.....a fantastic plinker with an interesting history behind it... .....before and after shots.....
