[QUOTE="RVCooper, post: 3317122, member: 30297"] I bought one a couple years ago. It functioned well for a couple hundred rounds when both taper pins migrated out of the gas block and left for parts unknown. A nice lady at Ruger told me they'd had a bad run of those from a contractor and she quickly sent me replacements. I installed them with some blue thread locker and its been ok. As an aside, I recently picked up a new Mk IV hunter and it started to disassemble itself at the range. I didn't lose any screws this time but the lady shipped me new ones anyway. This is only one man's experience but I think its horseshit that you have to finish building them when you take it out of the box. [/QUOTE]
