    Ruger mkIV shop manuals ?

    I recently acquired a Ruger stainless Target MKIV.
    in addition to the tutorials available on the web,I'm wondering if anyone has published any gunsmithing book/shop manual (I mean paper book) related to the Ruger MKIV series_
    thanks to all

    If you’re talking about the owners manual that’s available on line. As for a gunsmith manual I can’t say. I would start out looking for the mark I manual from the 1949. I know the takedown process has gotten simpler and evolved, but I don’t know if there Is there much difference between them other than that. interesting firearm considering it’s the one that started Bill Rugers company.

    Jerry Kuhnhausen has a manual that covers mk1-3, and may have what you want for the mk4. He may have updated to cover the mk4, by now.

    ...thanks to all for the answers: fortunately the Ruger gun owner's manual is already included with my gun_
    regarding J.K.'s works, which I admire and respect, I don't see anything in the list of his books regarding the (mk I,II, III) Ruger .22lr, much less the mkIV_
    the same thing happened to me when I looked for one of his works regarding the Super Redhawk, and it's a shame because his fine manuals have always been very useful to me_
