Ruger has a recall on some of the Mark IVs. It's a trigger/safety issue. Read about it in American Hunter on line news letter.

I'm glad they are being upfront and transparent about it. Wish Remington was the same way.

Life is good.

Thanks for the heads-up, Prof Young!

Here's their description of the problem, from the recall notice on their website.

"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."
