From their release. Click on the link for all the information.
Ruger recently discovered that all Mark IV™ pistols (including 22/45™ models) manufactured prior to June 1, 2017 have the potential to discharge unintentionally if the safety is not utilized correctly. In particular, if the trigger is pulled while the safety lever is midway between the “safe” and “fire” positions (that is, the safety is not fully engaged or fully disengaged), then the pistol may not fire when the trigger is pulled. However, if the trigger is released and the safety lever is then moved from the mid position to the “fire” position, the pistol may fire at that time.
The old joke applies. All Ruger firearms have 2 dates: Date of release and date of recall.
Old news. Been out about a year.
True, but just as I did not know, I am sure others have not.
And safety does not have an expiration date.
Agreed. I’m just wondering what has triggered the new interest. Bearing Arms today had a similar post. Just for those who already have taken care of the problem, it would have been nice to let them know this was not a new recall, even though a very important one.
