These Ruger 22 autos can be a PITA until you learn a few tricks.

1. After you have put the bolt back in, hold the trigger back and press the hammer up into the full fired position. I use a little punch or some other tool to do this.

2. Make certain the hammer strut swings freely, I put a drop on the joint to make sure it is well lubed.

3. When the housing is full seated, swing the muzzle up to allow the hammer strut to engage the indent in the housing and then finish closing the housing and snap shut.

Until you learn how to do these things, you have a fight on your hands, putting those things back together.

I have a pair of race guns built on Mk II and I clean them on a regular basis, so had to get the drill down pat.
