First post and I guess showing my MKII is a good way to start, I bought it new a long time ago, serial # starts with a 219, how old is that? It's currently stock except for the Hogue grips and I made it look better by turning the barrel to remove the ugly stamping Ruger puts on it. I've also been thinking about doing some trigger work on it, but it's pretty good stock.

Suppressed 22/45

COOL. I wish I had the $$ to get one of those. How quiet is it? I heard one on a P22 and it was very quiet.
It is very quiet. It is well worth the $$. The 22/45 makes a really good host because it is accurate at longer ranges than the P22. The AAC Pilot just went up in price by $ 100 unfortunately. You might want to find an SWR Warlock suppressor since they tested extremely quiet in recent tests. You can buy a Warlock for $325. And, the Gemtech Outback II is very reasonably priced at $ 299 retail.

That was definatly on purpose. It sat in a file cabinet for probably 15 years and was rusted so bad that the action would not move. After many hours of TLC I think it turned out great. The barrel was not harmed because it hadn't been cleaned after many rounds of waxed tip shells. I really wish I had a picture of what it looked like before.

My father owned the gun when my parents got married. He sold it to the guy who left it in the file cabinet, and now 20 some years later we got the gun back for practically nothing, and I doubt that it will ever leave my family again!

Can

Find a dealer locally who can assist you in all phases of the transfer. This should go beyond helping you fill out the paperwork: they should help you locate the gun if it isn't in stock and allow you to shoot the gun while your paperwork is being processed by the BATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms). It will usually take 4-6 weeks for the dealer to get the gun from another dealer if they don't already have it in stock (due to BATF paperwork delays).
Get your fingerprints (either by a police dept. or by a qualified fingerprinter, two imprints are needed) and two passport sized pictures taken. These will be used to perform a comprehensive criminal background check on you.
Have your local dealer help you fill out an "Application for Tax Paid Transfer And Registration Of Firearm" for, known as a "form 4".
You must have the signature of the Chief Law Enforcement (CLEO) officer that has jurisdiction over the municipality in which you live on the form 4. This could be the City Chief or the County Sheriff, for example. This is usually not a problem-- in machine gun friendly states. The form 4, CLEO signature, 2 fingerprint cards, 2 pictures, and a $200 check (your one-time transfer tax) must all be mailed to the BATF and an approved tax stamp returned before you may take possession of the gun. This may take anywhere from 2 to 5 months.
