Volquartsen VC3RS Recoil Rod and Spring Kit for Ruger Mark I, II, III, IV, and 22/45

Improved the action on my 22/45 lite

Been living with a damaged recoil rod for years until I found this kit. Better than the original and it has different springs to adjust for different ammo.

Just what I needed! Works just like you said. Thank you, Herman

While I haven't had the time or need to try the heavier spring, the "factory equivalent" and "light springs" fit perfectly and certainly do their jobs. The lighter spring, in particular, allows the use of lower velocity rounds. The spring holder also fits much better than the poorly-machined factory original, and better permits re-assembly.

This spring dropped right into the bolt and works like a charm. The original had broken due to use and age.I'm excited to purchase some high velocity ammo and test out the gold spring as well. Would recommend this purchase.
