Ruger 22/45 MK IV Trigger Upgrade | Mod Minute

If you were a little disappointed in the stock Ruger 22/45 LITE trigger like I was, rest assured that an MK IV trigger upgrade is easy to do at home.

Since I was coming from a Ruger Mark III that had a tuned trigger installed by me, I might have had some overly high expectations of the stock trigger. Thankfully Volquartsen is now offering a Mark IV Accurizing Kit that is compatible with the 22/45 LITE.
