What's the Problem?
This action affects Ruger Mark IV pistols (including 22/45™ models) manufactured prior to June 1, 2017, according to the Recall Notice [1]. All Mark IV pistols with serial numbers beginning with "401" (2017 models) or "WBR" (2016 models) are subject to the recall.
Ruger issued the recall after discovering that if the trigger on affected pistols 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), they 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.
If you purchased a Mark IV pistol that is affected by this recall, you should contact Ruger to schedule a free retrofit with an updated safety mechanism. Ruger will retrofit Mark IV pistols on a first-come, first-served basis.
