Ruger MK IV 22/45

The Ruger MK IV is a user‑friendly rimfire pistol family built for range training, plinking, and precision target work. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle, the MK IV is prized for its straightforward operation, consistent trigger feel, and rugged reliability.

A hallmark of the MK IV line is the one‑button takedown system that allows fast, tool‑free disassembly for safe clearing and quick maintenance. The platform uses simple blowback operation and a single‑action trigger that offers a clean break and short reset — characteristics that make it an excellent trainer for centerfire pistol fundamentals.

Ergonomics and sighting are designed for practical accuracy: many MK IV models feature an adjustable rear sight paired with a bright front sight, a comfortable grip angle, and controls positioned for intuitive handling. Magazines are compact and easy to load and typically hold 10 rounds, keeping the pistol light and easy to carry during long range sessions.
