Thanks Chet,
I have seen some Marks on the auction sites that displayed both the Instruction Manual and the Technical Manual so I wasn't sure what should be there. The one I have, that I bought by itself, has the orange Ruger Service Department sticker on it and a copyright date 1984 and a revision date of 5/84. It does have a stamp on the front stating 'This is a copy of the U.S. Government Technical Manual, included for your interest. Refer to the "Instruction Manual" for all safety and Operational warnings.'
