  • It's no exaggeration that these pistols can be a pain to reassemble, ive had the same trouble with mine.

  • Needs more light!! Good information, but the last step is a lot easier if you just follow along in the manual. Tipping the firearm upside down as stated helps the hammer go into the proper position

  • Wear a white sheet when taping black guns for us.

  • You really need better lighting.

  • i found an old ruger like that except the grip was made of wood and the end barrel of the gun was skinnier then then the begining of it

  • not a good video; good intentions, but blocking the user's view

  • @CharlieDoan I agree 100%...cool gun but sucks BIg when it comes time to clean it..........properly

  • whoever designed this gun should be SHOT...

  • This is the reason I sold my Mark 3.

  • Ruger need to improve this! like Beretta or many gun makers do not have this problem!

    Redesign this! RUGER because I like the gun but assembly is pain on the butt!! read instructions and go crazy with it......Decided Buy NEOS (from Beretta..MY OPION ONLY)

  • If the hammer spring assembly falls right in and stays like you did, you do NOT have the hammer strut in the correct position. If the strut is in the correct position, you have to push the assembly in, the strut will collapse the hammer spring a little. Your gun would NOT have fired as you showed.

  • thanks your vids help me out alot
