TK hammer bushing is a must have for only $10... it should be a standard part IMHO.

In for answers as well.
I was looking at the Majestic takedown kit, but the reviews are mixed. A lot of folks say they have ignition issues with the shorter hammer that the kit includes. |

I've never had an issue with take down on any of my rugers. That said my 22/45 lite sports a ton of upgrades mainly from Volq and TandemKross to include:
1)Volq trigger and sear 2) TK LCI eliminator 3) TK bushing/mag safety eliminator 4) TK Kanewolf sling shot BHO mod 5) TK extended mag bumpers(not +1's) 6) TK comp(not tested yet) 7) TK picatinny rail(not tested yet) 8) Duragrips in black wasp nest pattern All were great and fairly inexpensive additions. |

Link to their site. ETA- the extended mag bumpers are great. Sounds pretty inconsequential but, they make seating mags much more positive. |

Do they offer a trigger too or is the sear only what I want/need? |

My 22/45 is a pre-lite TB, but I have the hammer bushing mod, the VQ trigger / disconnector kit and a few other odds and ends installed.
The only complaint that I have is that my VQ trigger can be a little sensitive. |

I did the following upgrades to my 22/45 lite cobalt:
TK Hammer Bushing - to remove magazine disconnect and magazines drop free Kanewolf Slingshot mod-Can slingshot load mags, Reduces wear on the bolt VQ target Sear- Reduced Trigger Pull TK LCI Removal Insert- removes a useless feature that can cause malfunction. Also made cleaning easier. TK Magazine +1 Bumper- Improved loading of magazines, +1 Capacity Hogue Grip Hi-viz fiber optic front site post Got a Spectre II suppressor in jail and once I load up on some more magazines I will have a pretty sweet setup! I am really happy with all the mods and recommend them all. After the bushing and sear replacement, the trigger is very nice so I don't see myself doing anything else with the trigger. |

Hammer bushing from the MFG of your choice
Remove the ball and detent in the bolt release and slingshot to your hearts content Modify the LCI by cutting off the metal "wing" if you're cheap or buy an LCI filler A little orange sight paint for the front sight VQ extractor My 22/45 TB went from clean to malfunctions at about the 400 rnd mark to about 1500rnds now while shooting suppressed. Not bad for $15 in mods. |

VQ trigger kit and smoothed the nub on the LCI; I've also got bumpers on several of my mags for the reasons already mentioned. I was leery of spending the money on the trigger kit but it really is amazing the difference, it breaks very clean now at approx 2.5lbs. And the best mod- a suppressor.

The place you seek for both the trigger and sear is rimfire sports and custom. I just purchased both from them for my 22/45 lite. Plus, they have free shipping too.

Well, it is done minus one part. My Volquartsen extractor should be here later this week. Btw, the Maddmacs muzzle devices are crazy nice. There is a steel collar that threads onto the pistol with the aluminum comp over it. Two set screws lock the two assemblies together. I was expecting just a screw on but this is way nicer.

Man I wish mine looked like that instead of the pimpin' gold with the retarded diagonal fluting.
 They came out with the black about two months after I bought mine and dropped the money for the VQ stuff. If I wasn't such a cheap ass I'd buy the newer model, instead I'll probably just Duracoat mine (since I have some HK black Duracoat on hand still).
ETA: Make sure your front sight is screwed on well- first time out shooting mine it about fell off. |

I've got an older 22/45 before they started making the ones with replaceable grip panels, and the LITE models. I bought a Tactical Solutions Paclite upper for it to use with my .22 can, and put an Allchin Cmore mount on it, got the TK bushing after dicking around trying to make some washers fit to shim it out. Volquartsen trigger, hammer, etc. Switched out the Allchin mount for a 90 degree mount from Barry's Sporting Goods out of Iowa. I put the Volquartsen extractor and firing pin in the bolt and just added a Majestic Arms bolt racker.
Thing is twitchy. Ran several hundred rounds through it, worked like a champ. Took it out again, and the damned trigger won't reset. I've replaced the trigger spring with a factory Ruger spring. It is a pain in the ass. I would almost go back to a stock trigger if it would just run 100%. I don't know how many sear springs I've been through. 
I've been thinking about taking the file to the grip and flattening it out so I can do the grip panel mod to it. Then again, I could just get a new one and swap the Paclite to it. |

Figure mags were $30 up here anyhow so $34 for a mag + baseplate is a steal. Probably going to pick up two more and two baseplates to replace the tandemkross ones I have. I just like the grip better with the bit of extension on the bottom. Fair warning on the complete mags: They have mixed reviews. Mine just needed a tweak on the feed lips and they work perfect. |

Another cheap upgrade that I love. My set of Pierce grips came in yesterday. They needed a bit of trimming of excess rubber (designed for a 1911) but makes the 22/45 incredibly comfy in hand. The grip just slips under the side slabs and wraps around the front.

Reading the advice here, I put in a Volq sear and a TK bushing. But I can not get the LCI out to save my life. Any ideas? I have the Blue lite.

Flip the barrel upside down so the pin for the LCI is pointing straight up. Put a strong magnet over the pin and gently lift up. It is just press fit in, so it should pop right out. Mine was crazy easy. |

I bought this a few weeks back. This is one of the funnest pistols I've owned. Accuracte, light and cycles all ammo except some subsonic. It was a good pistol before the upgrades, but now is incredible. Volquartsen trigger Volquartsen sear Tandemkross bushing Tandemkross Kane slingshot mod Patza LCI filler Mag bumpers from magbumper.com Maddmacs Lite comp Burris Fastfire (loaner until I get a FF III) Now it is a smooth 2.5lb trigger with no extra travel. http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d68/50_BMG/Guns/Ruger%2022-45%20small_zpss5x3izos.jpg That looks great. I have a tandemkross bushing and VQ sear on the shelf waiting to go into mine. Then a PA reflex uptop. When I got mine (same model as yours in picture) and unthreaded the protector it had a very thin piece of metal there between the frame and the thread protector. What is that for? Should it be tossed or does it serve a purpose? Also what subsonic does yours not like? |

For those with fastfires on lites, what did you do about it not fitting flush on the rail? Just tighten it down real well canted one way or the other?
