eXTENDED MAG REALEASE

cheryld · Post by **cheryld** » Fri Dec 18, 2009 2:04 pm

HI, Just bought a new Ruger Hunter. Also purchased a pair of Volquartsen Volthane grips with the heel rest and thumb rest. It came with an extended magazine realease and another piece of metal. It did not come with instructions. Can anyone help me figure out how to install these? I think the metal piece may be an extended bolt release. Thanks for any assistance. Cheryl

Your on the right site but the wrong area.

Here is the link to the maintance section. http://www.guntalk-online.com/service.html

Cheryl, Take a look at this thread - http://www.guntalk-online.com/forum/vie ... 6928#16928 Hakaman has a set of those VQ Mark III Volthane grips. You should be able to see the parts in the lower pictures. The little extend mag release button goes inside the grip and fits over the top of the original. The extended bolt stop lever has to go in place of the original. The maintenance procedures http://www.guntalk-online.com/detailstrip.htm#Removal have the procedure to replace it. When you remove the pistol's hammer pivot pin, the old bolt release will come off with it. Exchange in the new one and replace the hammer pivot pin with it.

Bullseye, thanks so much for the help. I tried posting this in the "right" forum, but could not do it. I appreciate your input and for ALL the information you have posted in regards to the Ruger pistols.

I'm not sure which forum you mean when attempting to post, but this is the proper place for rimfire pistol related questions.
