The NSN printed prominently on the cover was assigned in February 1984 to the Ruger MKII-678-1, providing strong period identification for this manual.

Thank You from Pickin’ with Rick

Thank you for looking at this original Ruger Mark II Target Model Government Sales Division technical manual. Unlike the more commonly encountered commercial owner\'s manuals, this publication carries a formal technical-manual designation and National Stock Number, giving it additional interest as Ruger factory and government-contract literature.

The bold TM MKII-678-1 identification, NSN 1005-01-171-4851, Government Sales Division marking, period Ruger graphics and detailed interior technical illustrations make this an especially interesting addition to a Ruger Mark II literature collection.

Note to Collectors

This manual is particularly notable for its Government Sales Division identification and its formal TM MKII-678-1 / NSN 1005-01-171-4851 designation. These markings distinguish it from the standard commercial Ruger Mark II instruction manuals commonly encountered by collectors.

It represents an interesting piece of early Ruger Mark II technical and government-related factory literature.
