After my post on pg. 4, yesterday night I was cleaning my Mk. II Target model.
The bolt stop pin has broken after 25 years of service to me, and some time to a previous owner too. Many thousands of rounds finally took their toll:
An email to Ruger got me a case # and confirmation that they still have the part. They referred me to call Customer Service, which I did, and they helped me order the part. $13 and change, incl. shipping.
Now to see if I'll be able to drift that hinge pin out so I can replace it. They pounded a dent in the top of it to make it a tighter fit, I guess. If not, I'll either enlist a 'smith or try a new Buck Mark.
