Funny video.
Then this video shows how to do it. Doesn't look that hard.

we gave a Mark II to both of our son's many, many years ago .... I took one apart, ended up sending it back to Ruger for reassembly .. .. one of our son's has learned to take his apart and reassemble it without much effort .... he does both because his brother and I won't attempt it

I have a 3 and a 4 and I just look at it this way it keeps me out of trouble.

It is a bit difficult but I can resemble without cursing too loudly, don't do it enough to attempt without the manual. The new versions with the one button takedown has great appeal.

I am planning on a Mark II as soon as I find a good deal on one locally.
I have often heard of the difficulty of disassembly/reassembly but after having once owned a Kel-Tec gen 1 S2K, and having accomplished it once on it - I can't imagine the Mark II being too difficult.
The Kel-Tec was the worst gun to work on I have ever experienced.

my worst was a Colt Woodsman. Got to the last piece to put together and it just would not go. Tried for 2 days and ended up having to take it to a gunsmith. He told me they could be a real problem and to not take it all the way down again.

When I bought my MkIV Ruger 22/45, simply decided to skip models I-III. The single-button release is a pleasure to "work" with. Sure do like simple.
