10/22 bolt hold open/release lever. Modified to release when bolt is pulled back, I believe.

Yup! I pulled it out and "fixed" it with a dremel the day I bought my 10/22.

Stock on the right, modified on the left. Opening up the heart shaped hole allows the bolt to release automatically when you pull it back.

I love taking guns apart, but I'm still afraid of the Ruger MK series pistols.

The MKIII really isn't that hard once you've learned the sequence of it. I know a lot of folks have removed the magazine disconnect from theirs which makes takedown easier but I haven't done that to mine. I've put a Volquartsen sear and spring in mine and added a Bushnell TR25 red dot and that's it. I've taken it down to nothing enough times where I don't need to go find Youtube videos anymore to do it. [wink]
