Uhh......funny, I just bought one of them Rugers. Nice pistol, lots of fun with a can. Nice finish, nice price. It came with a top and bottom rail installed, 5 rail mounting screws total installed. I think they are 4-40 UNF. I don't want anything on the rails, or the rails themselves, so I removed them. Gonna use open/iron sights. I saw somewhere on the webz that if you e-mailed Ruger customer service, they would send you blued filler screws. So, I e-mailed them. It required a little bit of hoop jumping, but not bad. Couple of weeks later (Thanksgiving and what not) I receive a package from Ruger.
3. fukkin'. screws........
Now, I have to e-mail them once again, probably will have to get on bended knee and beg for 2 more filler screws......Ruger; For God's sake, how much could it possibly cost to just include 5 filler screws in the original box with the pistol ? FFS, charge a dollar more for the pistol and include the damn filler screws........
Flip side is the take down and re-assembly nightmare from previous versions has been very nicely solved with this version, so I'll swallow my tongue about the filler screws......No, wait !........
