I'm under the impression that the ruger symbol used to be a red background, and Mr. Bill changed it to black when Sturm died. Here's what's funny to me - I ordered a *New* Ruger MkII pistol, 6" barrel, blued, about a month ago. I've been shooting it, and noticed that the area behind the bird is *red*. On both left and right grip, and on the bottom of both magazines.
The picture of the same gun on the website is clearly black. As are all the other pistols. How can this be? It is new in the Ruger plastic box with the little envolope with the fired case, etc.
Is this an old gun in new packaging? (was the MkII even produced when Sturm was around)
Has Ruger changed the policy?
Is this not the case with the MkII?
Could some one set me straight? I'm obviously missing something. Thanks!
