REVERSING THE BACKSTRAP To accommodate personal grip preferences and styles, the SR-SERIES is equipped with a unique reversible backstrap. One side provides an arched surface; the reverse side is flat. 1. To reverse the backstrap, begin by removing the backstrap retaining pin using a correctly sized Allen wrench or large paper clip (shown here). Simply push the pin and set it aside. (See Figure 30.) Push Pin Out Figure 30 2. Slide the backstrap down and out of the grip frame. (See Figure 31a.) NOTE: The full size SR9 and SR40 have a backstrap bushing which must remain in the correct position during assembly. (See Figure 31b.) Figure 31a Figure 31b Backstrap Bushing Slide Down 30
3. Now reverse the backstrap (see Figure 32a), slide it back into the grip frame (Figure 32b) and reinsert the pin. Be careful to push the pin in far enough so that it is centered in the grip frame. Figure 32a Figure 32b 2 Insert Pin Rotate to Other Side 1 Push Upward MAGAZINE INSPECTION AND CARE Check the magazine frequently. The magazine follower must move freely and have adequate tension so that each cartridge is quickly raised to the feeding position. The magazine lips should be clean and free of cracks, dents, or nicks, so that cartridges are held in their proper feeding position. If the magazine becomes dirty, it should be disassembled and thoroughly cleaned. Be sure the magazine is unloaded before disassembly. All RUGER ® SR-SERIES magazines are manufactured with a snap-on base. The following disassembly instructions apply: Snap-On Base - Use a punch to press in on the magazine spring seat where it protrudes into the hole in the magazine floorplate. Slide the magazine floorplate toward the front of the magazine, be careful to prevent the forcible ejection of the magazine spring seat and compressed magazine spring. Withdraw the magazine spring seat, magazine spring, and magazine follower from the magazine body. Reassemble in reverse order. When cleaning is necessary, use a solvent that will not rust the metal components or adversely affect the magazine body. After the magazine has been soaked to loosen foreign matter, be certain to shake it vigorously (with the loading opening away from you) to remove solvent or residue from within the magazine. 31
