Ruger Issues Safety Warning and Recall Notice of Ruger Mark IV Pistols

[Kahrnut]

Been going downhill since the mk2

I have a mk3 and while it's a very accurate shooter it's a total POS

The magazine disconnect or whatever you call the mechanism that prevents it from firing when the mag is removed is a very poor design and the mag itself is a poor design

The mk3 magazine is shaped so it WILL fit into the gun facing backwards

You can slide the mag in the well with the bullets facing the back of the gun

The mag will then get hooked on the release and will not come out no way no how .

This happend to me
If you're not paying close attention you can slide the mag in facing the wrong way and it's stuck

This is so common that a couple of different companies sell a slim Jim type of tool to remove the mag

You'll shoot your eye out!
