I know the pistol shoots great, but the take down and reassembly is a pita. I saw this easy take down kit, has anyone ever installed one?

Reassembly is greatly simplified if you point the muzzle strait up when reattaching the frame to the barrel.
For the $50 i don't mind spending 5 - 8 min to re-assemble
yes it is, starts @ pg 24

The Great Kazoo's Feedback
"when you're happy you enjoy the melody but, when you're broken you understand the lyrics".
I stopped shooting my 22/45 because it was such a PITA to re-assemble. Had my son out shooting and used the 22/45 to orientate him to shooting a semi-auto pistol. Dreaded cleaning it but did it anyways. I was amazed that it went back together without a hitch. I got it back to together and thought that I couldn't have gotten that easy. I wish I could remember what the heck I had done. I think it had to do with what hatidua said.
I'll stop buying black rifles when my wife stops buying black shoes.
I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.
I friend has that easy assembly kit, or what ever it's called, and swears by it. I seem to love the agony and won't buy one.
Let me help you guys.... If you read the Ruger manual and follow the directions- it's a snap.
I just installed a Volquartsen trigger, sear and magazine disconnect in mine. I did have to back up a couple times to make sure that everything went together right, but I have found that familiarity helps a lot. I used to shoot the pistol rarely and avoid taking it apart. But now that I have a suppressor for it, I shoot it almost every range trip and the more I disassemble and assemble it, the easier it gets. Here is the video I did of replacing the parts:
The gun shoots even better now and the magazines actually eject without hanging up.
