    Recalled a Week After I Bought Mine!!!

    I bought a 22/45 Lite in May. My very FIRST gun! I didn't even get a chance to take it to the range and fire it before the recall! :banghead:

    Of course, when I first got it I took it down, inspected and lightly oiled it before heading off to the range. I noticed something CLEARLY funky with the safety when dry firing it.

    Ruger's replacing the grip frames in a special mail-in program on a first bought, first fixed basis. They'll send you a box when it's your turn.

    It's STILL a sweet little gun! So, I can wait! :)

    Yes the older ones are a PITA to clean but if it ain't broke don't fix it???

    I bet I'm coming up on 6,000 - 7,000 rounds on my Mk ll target 1980 somethjing vintage. Remove grips and start with a power wash of PB Blaster, brake or carb cleaner soak, bore brush Hoppes ect ect dry and coating of Ballistrol, never a problem. I might do this after every 1000 to 1500 rounds of whatever the sale is du jour.

    Works for me but I am lazy. Lives in Kitchen cabinet and backyard shooting range from patio, 100 rounds every day.

    Received my MK IV recall return yesterday. It was returned eight days after I mailed them the assembly.
