Ruger Mark IV Target .22 LR Stainless Pistol

A: Hi Scott, I just talked to Julia at Buds via live chat. She informed me that Buds stock isn't affected by the recall. So these are good to go.

A: Yes the upper for the MK4 already is drilled and tapped to accept a top rail for a red dot per Ruger's main website, but I don't know if they'd provide the rail or not. More than likely they don't, but hey if you do get one with your purchase consider it a bonus. If not, you can buy on from Buds if they sell one or purchase from Ruger's shop page, they're about $15 plus shipping, could be flat rate; which is about $6 more or less.

A: Yes, they will accept a rail. The rails are sold separately and are widely available. Great little guns, I have one myself. (If you found this answer helpful, please mark it as the "Best Answer". Thank you.)

A: Yes: Either Weaver-Style or Picatinny-Style rails. There are even "Combo: style mounts that give you frame rail options as well. Some configuration examples are : (picatinny) - http://www.majesticarms.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/picturegallery848099.tmp/MajesticArmsPicatinnyRail.jpg - (Combo Rail) - http://www.rimfiresports.com/graphics/00000001/VC3PR-TS.jpg

A: Yes they are drilled and tapped.

A: Only for models made before June first. They have been shipping out the updated pistols since July 5th. Worst case scenario you get one with a serial that puts it in the recalled batch and Ruger will fix it for free.

A: According to a earlier post about the same thing. Buds stock isn't affected by the recall. So these are good to go.

A: All Mark IV™ pistols produced prior to June 1, 2017 are potentially affected and therefore are being recalled. This includes Mark IV™ Target, Hunter, Competition, 22/45™, 22/45™ Lite and 22/45™ Tactical models. These models bear serial numbers beginning with "401" (2017 models) or "WBR" (2016 models). Newly manufactured Mark IV™ pistols will begin with serial number "500." Thus, if you have a Mark IV™ or 22/45™ pistol with a serial number beginning with the number "5," your pistol is not subject to the recall. Mark IV™ and 22/45™ pistols retrofitted with the updated safety mechanism are easily identified by the letter "S" in the white safety dot that is visible when the safety is engaged. https://ruger.com/dataProcess/markIVRecall/

A: Buds stock is not affected by this recall.

A: contact Buds Customer Service at 859-368-0371

A: These are post recall. Buds stock is not affected, I have confirmed this myself.

A: Hi Michael, I would contact Buds Customer Service at 859-368-0371. They may not have this info immediately so have them ask their "inventory" dept/manager to get you the information you need before you buy. Also remember Mark IV™ and 22/45™ pistols retrofitted with the updated safety mechanism are easily identified by the letter "S" in the white safety dot that is visible when the safety is engaged.

A: If you use the live chat option, they will confirm these aren't affected in less then a minute. These are good.

A: Same part number among the Mark IV's Anthony.

A: Not on this model the following model is the same gun with a threaded barrel Model 104639 https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/104639/ruger+mark+iv+target+%2aexclusive%2a+single+22+long+rifle
