Quoted: Would somebody forward me the mag disconnect info? Thanks in advance.

There are two ways to do it. One involves replacing parts, the other doesn't. Some people don't recommend the no parts replacement method, but it has worked fine for me.
Disassembly and reassembly is the same either way.
If you want to do it "properly" you need the following parts:
Mark II hammer bushing (there is also a blued one available)
www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/ProductDetail.aspx?p=12299&title=HAMMER+BUSHING%2c+SSMark II hammer (this is a Volquartsen one, stock Ruger hammers are cheaper but really hard to find. Ruger won't sell them direct.)
www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/ProductDetail.aspx?p=13864&title=RUGER%7e+MK+II+DROP-IN+ACCURIZER+KITThe magazine disconnect parts are nos. 37 and 38. They are circled in red. These are the parts that need to "go away".
My mag disconnect has an additional "tail" so the part looks slightly different than the picture in the manual.
TO REMOVE:Disassemble as normal. Remove the grip panels.
Push the hammer pin out from right to left. The hammer, hammer bushing, mag disconnect parts, BHO, and safety will all come out now.
Reinstall the BHO, hammer pin, and safety lever. Push the hammer pin in just far enough to hold the safety lever in. In order to get these parts in you will have to pull the sear forward slightly.
Note: in this pic the disconnecter plunger is missing. Make sure yours is still in.
Reinstall the hammer on the hammer bushing, leaving the mag disconnect parts off. Put these parts onto the disconnector lever and reinstall them in the frame. Push the hammer pin all the way through. When everything is reinstalled it will look like this.
Reassemble as normal. Done.
