I want to find out if it is worth it to find a local gunsmith that can thread a ruger mk3 bull barrel. Since the ruger rimfire the registered part is the upper, is it worth doing it or just buy a dedicated host? How much should i expect to pay?

As a MkIII owner, you should be LOOKING for an excuse to upgrade to a MkIV.
 Rifle barrels are $100+ to get threaded, in my limited experience. I don't know if the pistol barrel will be different. Personally, I'd get a new gun. There's the money aspect, plus you know that the threading will be done correctly, and you don't need to worry about the finish. _________________ Steve Benefactor Life Member, National Rifle Association Life Member, Second Amendment Foundation Patriot & Life Member, Gun Owners of America Life Member, Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Legal Action Supporter, Firearms Policy Coalition Member, NAGR/NFGR Please support the organizations that support all of us.

MKIV's are kind of like the remedial version.  _________________ aka Big_Daddy Nitro Products FFL Dealer SOT Dealer |
