I see you have installed the rail and the red dot in the other video. Since its comments are turned off, I’m asking here. How much did it cost you in total including the after market parts, installation change, etc?
Shadow" Picatinny Rail for Ruger® MK Series TANDEMKROSS $34.99 and the red dot was about $100.
I have exactly the same thumb as yours. I hope it won’t be a big problem as I’ve ordered one (in CA). 😅
I have a Mark III 22/45 lite and love the accuracy of it so easy, you red dot it and it's absolutely amazing....but I've paid the range I go to to clean it because it's such a pain, but as I learn more about things like squibs and taking it apart it's nearly impossible to take it apart easily at the range..so I see a MARK IV in my future very soon...very nice video!
The Ruger Marks are all great guns, but the IV is definitely the winner when it comes to take down and reassembly! I hope you get one. Thanks for your comments.
🙏
Those lil charging loop things just take the" clean" look away from these pistols... I own several madels of these ruger mark series and they all shoot as good as any rifle at 30 yards.
Does your barrel get loose on your gun Wiggle video
No that has never happened to me, but I do not have thousands of round through it. Is that happening to you and are you hearing others having that issue?
@@ATS357 no but I saw video of it happening guy on TH-cam
Thank you ATS. I just acquired one of these from my grandfather's collection. He was a police officer & PI before he passed. Also a marine. Toughest guy I ever knew. He swore by this gun and said it saved his life numerous times. Thank you for teaching me how to use this and be safe with it. I feel much more comfortable handling it to put it in a safe place away from others.
Mine is a 2245 and came with the rail in the box. One thing I would advise on this gun is to remove the sights and put some threadless on the screws. Do the same for the rail screws. They will back out as you shoot. My instructions say the sights need to be removed to use the rail but they work just fine with the rail in place. I can use a laser or holo and take it off to use the sights any time. Excellent gun.
Thank you. I did put a Tandemkross Rail on and did loctite on the screws. The rear sight in not in the way but you can not use the rear sight with a red dot on it. This is after putting those on. th-cam.com/video/1m4jpzvnJ0s/w-d-xo.html
I didn’t know about the half cocked feature. I have a 6906. These are great guns, made when Smith & Wesson was at the top of their game.
Yes the half cock can be an issue, if you are not careful or in a hurry.
Very clever.
@@denzilvenske6315 Thank you.
Oh my only issue was the right side safety,, took it off because , like you, jabbing my index finger
Try TKs blast pack,,, worth the $80! I have the22/45 model and love it!
The Blast pack installation looks a little more involved than I want to get:)
Have a Ruger Mark 1V for over a year no problems, all of a sudden the pistol is STOVE PIPING .I use CCI Mini Mags ammo found out the EXTRACTOR had to be replaced, this is a common problem on these pistols. (Ruger should have a recall on this problem. )
I have heard that can be an issue. Tanndemkross makes quality replacement parts for the Mark IV.
I just bought a Ruger Mark IV and when I saw the title of your video, my first thought was "Well damn. What's wrong with the pistol that I was unaware of." Thankfully, all of your issues were non-issues to me. I knew before I even bought the pistol that I would be replacing the sights with fiber optics, front and rear.
It is a great little pistol! Enjoy and thanks for commenting.
@@ATS357 I figured it would be. After all, I also have a Ruger Mark I and my wife has a Ruger Mark II.
I live in Ireland,I have a ruger mk4 target too,yes I too upgraded the fore sight but that's all,it's perfect other than the basic sights. I have over 50k rounds put through it with no problems. This gun retails here at1350 euro,yes that's 1350 euro.
Hi Martin, nice to hear from someone in Ireland! If my math is correct, 1,350 Euro = $1,462.67 in American $. Ouch! Here it goes for about $600.00. It's a great pinker, I have since put a Red Dot on it and love it. It is very accurate. Thank you for your comment and keep enjoying that Ruger Mark IV.
👍👍👍 great idea. Making things easier.....think you
You are welcome. Love working smarter, not harder😉
One of the most beautiful gun ever!
Hi, since the third screw backs out then it must be loose. When you screw it in, it hits the spring. So the screw has to be somewhere in the middle (loose) so as not to cause any problem. For those not wanting to install a rail, maybe some locktite so the screw does not back out again.
Anybody have any luck converting the 9 shot back to a 6 shot then?
Wow 👍
Looks like your guard is needing some undercut, my finger dont fit well with the "bump"
Hi Shannon, thanks for the comment. It is a little tight, but to be honest it does not bother me at all. I have Hogue grips on pretty much everything I own. Just got the Hellcat Pro which has great texture on it, but I immediately put a Hogue grip on it. I love the pronounced finger groves and it is always a positive grip. I guess is a personal thing. Thanks again for your input.
Is it okay to disassemble p238 with safety on like you did? Because I just disassembled and reassembled my p238 while safety was on. After I got done I saw some comments from other video that saids don't keep the safety on while disassembling p238
The whole idea is not to manipulate the safety when the slide is off. It can cause the little ball barring behind the safety lever to pop out, and that is not a good thing.
Thank you for the response! I will make sure not move safety while the slide is off
I’ll be honest I did this earlier this morning. I just use my big old thumb and put it in between those two bars. Keep them on place.
Get a Buckmark and find out why they are better.
Gave my Buck Mark away and bought a Ruger Mark II. I didn't like that the sight base was separate from the barrel. I also needed to barely finger tighten the sight base screws after reassembly or they would basically fuse to the sight base preventing disassembly (mine had conical screw heads with 'twisted tooth' lock washers). I had to send mine back to Browning for repair to get the screws out once. Other than that, it was a very nice pistol. I still get to shoot it once in a while as I gave it to my brother. I liked it too much to permanently get rid of it. I did break a firing pin once in the browning... not sure why.
Buckmark is a good gun, but I don't care for the breakdown method. In my opinion, you can not beat the Ruger Mark IV for take down.
Now the real question, why would you not use it as a holster? Doesn't hold on good? Lol
Hmm...I have a MKII bull barrel target pistol. It has been very accurate and reliable for many years. Agree that cleaning is complicated, but not excessively so IMO. Thought about a MK IV, but am not enamored of an aluminum frame and plastic sights versus steel frame and sights. I will pass for now...
Thomas, thank you for your comment. There was nothing wrong with the accuracy of the first three generations (to my knowledge). I never had one. Most people’s complaint was the takedown and reassembly, especially for those who did not clean it very often. The Mark IV I can vouch for because I do have one. The frame was CNC machined from a solid block of aluminum, which in my opinion is a lot stronger. It actually adds more heft to the gun. (35.6 oz total) The barrel is Cold hammer-forged steel. The 2245 is a molded polymer grip frame which make it a little lighter. (34.4 oz total) I did not like the plastic front sight, but that was quickly and inexpensively remedied. I kind of waste money changing the front sight, since I put on the rail and Red Dot. (which I love) The rest of the gun is extremely solid. I am sure you love your Mark II as I love my Mark IV. Thank you again for your input.
Great informative video!
Thank You!
Thanks for sharing. I have my eyes on this and a Ruger revolver. Since I can't decide maybe I'll buy both! Lol.
Sounds like a plan!
Brilliant.
Thank you😊 Sometimes, the light goes on, and I get a bright 💡idea.
Hello sr. I have a question do they sell it for XDM 3.8 compact optic slide ready if yes i will appreciate you point me where I can purchase or if you have an affiliate link more than glad will use your link to make the purchase thank you for the video my goal is to use it with the He509T-GR
I don't see one on springfield website. You could call them to be sure.
You could have your slide milled for probably $200. Look on line for a place that does it.
Technically yes, but the manufacturer says not to trust the safety.
When you say its not the safest way, at 4:08, wouldn't the safety being on prevent anything bad from happening?
Sorry I thought I had responded to you earlier. My bad! Theoretically yes, but the manufacturer will tell you not to depend on the safety.
I bought the Hogue for my M&P Shield. Yes very hard to put on. Overtime it will loosen the rubber grip and slide around a little bit.
So far mine has stayed put.
Is it normal for this pistol to get extremely filthy shooting 100 rounds
No more than any other IMHO. 22LR is a dirty round to start with. It's never an issue form me, because when I get back from shooting the first thing I do is clean my guns I don't care what caliber it is, that is just one of my convictions. 22 LR guns in general can be very finicky. I do love this gun, it is more accurate that I am. I will sometimes have a malfunction. It may be the ammo, I only use CCI standard velocity. I find it to be the most consistently accurate. IMHO.
@@ATS357 thanks
tbh i put grease on mine to hold it in place because thats what i was shown with car parts. figured what could it hurt sense its not a semi auto where stuff has to cycle on its own lol
Well that would work, the problem is you would have dirt and gun powder sticking to the grease and gumming up everything. In my opinion.
super cool trick!
Thank You.
Great tip!
Thanks for watching!
Where do you get the grips?
I got them from a local gun shop. I am sorry I can't remember the brand.
Where do I get that rear charging handle at?
Ordered it through Ruger. You can get the same thing through TANDEMKROSS, they just won't have the Ruger logo.
I have the stainless steel version of the same pistol and I have different issues. The front sight(it's metal) is not centered, it bends to the right, no wonder I always shoot to the left when I first got the gun. The other issue is the barrel sits loose on the receiver; when I shake the receiver, the barrel rattles on top. I used to own a MK II but no issues. I believe Ruger quality is slipping badly.
If it were me, I would be in contact with Ruger. I am sure they will make it right!
The off center front sight is no longer bothering me; thanks to my old eyes, I have installed a rail and put a red dot on top. The cause of the rattling barrel on the receiver has also been resolved by using a 0.01 inch stainless steel shim placed at the front of the receiver right under the barrel, that's the exact location Ruger put a rubber plug to prevent the barrel from rattling. I believe I bought my MK IV in 2018, since then I have been buying European made firearms, not of them come with any issues.@@ATS357
I’ll be doing the same thing on my 1322 thank you for video and I’d be doing the same thing was funny reminded me of myself “ turn that camera off”!!!😅
Thank you for this review.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, best tip I have ever seen for this issue.👍👍👍🇺🇸🙏🏽✌🏻✌🏻
Right on!
I really want the stainless steel but I too live in California so I got this as well. Very nice tips on the mod.
Thanks 👍
Heh just got mine this weekend and running the same grips (I have them on my Mk II as well) but I did pick up a set of G10 scales from Volquartsen and while they look and feel great, I'm just more accustomed to the Hogue grip. While I want to run an optic I'm thinking that front sight is my next upgrade.
I lived in socal for many years from 1965 to 2019 and I bought my mk1 , 2 and three while there. I got my mk4 after I left.
I must admit, in my opinion, that charging ring looks absolutely stupid on that gun. I guess it serves a purpose for you. But wow.
It works, and that works for me!
Yes, they look ugly as sin but the only other option is to get a Volquartsen bolt for ~$300, but it also has all their upgraded components and you have a spare bolt.
True makes it goofy asf 🤣.
The Halo actually works much better than OEM and eliminates the finger pinch
Ruger ought to fire the designer who standardized this new bolt with its vicious finger-biting absence of ears. The old style bolt is much better.
They charged me $20.00 that's with shipping.
:(
2:55 I have been trying to get my trigger assembly back in my mossberg for 3 days now. I believe the safety pin is catching on the square metal piece beneath it, what do I do? I’ve watched countless videos and it’s like I’m the only person who’s experiencing this issue
If it's the safety on top, not a cross bolt, the safety has to be either on safe or fire, I can remember at the moment. Try it both ways. One of them should work. Let me know if that works.
@@ATS357 I had a friend help me with it. Turns out the cartridge interrupter and the stop were in fact the issues behind all of it which is crazy because I would press both as hard as I could to the sides and it still didn’t do the trick. I figure it’s one of those things where it matters more about the points of pressure rather than pressure itself.
Glad you got it. Yes they have to be just right in order to get the trigger group back in place.
How’s the red dot holding up?
So far so good!
