I purchased this gun last week and WOW what a beautiful looking gun! I am so rooting for this gun to be a winner it's not even funny.
Yesterday was an extremely trying day as I thought hmmm... I'll just take it out to the range (brand spankin' new) and field strip, clean, lube, and reassemble. Couldn't even get the mainspring housing out. I took it home and tapped out the mainspring housing, disassembled, cleaned and embarked on getting it back together. 5 hours later, manual read and reread, youtube videos watched umpteen times, I finally got it back together.
While I had it apart I noticed that the bolt release pressed on the magazine and unseated the mag. After I got the gun back together and went for a test drive on the range, I've had problems with the mags don't seem to want to seat correctly. Most times I can firmly seat the mag and just pull it back out w/o pressing the mag release button. The bolt release seems to dislodge the mag as well. On many of the mags I shot it was one shot and click. Mag is not seated and I can pull it out of the magwell w/o releasing the magazine with the mag release.
I'm already smitten with this gun. If I can get it running good it will probably get the most use. I'm frustrated with it so far, but I'm willing to find the solution.
Help would be appreciated! Also, if anyone knows... what is Ruger's policy with new guns and service for issues.
Thanks in advance....
Mike
