[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 4198270, member: 6064"] Had a 180 series, it broke the bolt roller tab.... Common problem so Ruger made the bolt lug solid. The 181 through 185 series rifles were known for breaking extractors and firing pins, and Ruger wouldn't sell parts, had to send the gun back. Had a 185 that went back 3 times. I kept telling them the extractor cut was milled wrong, but they never fixed it just kept sending it back with a new extractor which would break. Finally dremeled the bolt cut out for the extractor and the extractor lived, but then the firing pin tail broke off. Sent it back and they wouldn't fix it because the bolt had been "modified". They sent it back unfixed. By then I was sick of them. If you need some parts for one of yours Corgi, I'll be happy to tell you which stock pond out by Ordway it is in! [/QUOTE]
