Favorite Upgrades for the 22/45?

Just layed my hands on a Talo version of the MK III 22/45. Other than a little trigger work I'm hard put to think of a way to improve it.
So, what are your favorite upgrades to the 22/45? Springs, triggers, etc?
So far I've tried half a dozen different flavors of ammo from low to high velocity; solids and hollow points; W-W, Rem., CCI, and Federal.
Some are more accurate than others, obviously. The best are great, the worst o.k. and not a single "bobble" after the first 70 rounds; out of the box. [:D]

Volquartson has a good one.
To me the only other thing that might make sense is a red dot sight, but that depends a little on what you are trying to do with it.
An old company who used to have parts in Brownell's, Broken Gun Ranch used to make a large slide stop which was an easy 5 minute install in 22/45s and you could actually manipulate the thing with a thumb, instead of ripping your thumbpad off trying to push it down.
At least on mine, sliding it down with the thumb (and I have small hands), is slick and easy so long as there's at lease one round in the magazine. The follower button seems to be what makes dropping the slide hard with an empty mag. To each his own, but doesn't bother me.
