Have heard about several different models of Rugers having the same issue. Hope they figure out the problem and correct it.

Just dropped the Ruger off to be shipped back to Prescott.. Customer Service said they will install a machined sight. should have it back hopefully Monday, Tuesday next week. Hope this is the first and last time. Read some in the Ruger forums that owners were sending their weapons back 3 and four times.
