The Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Lite is a lightweight .22 LR pistol designed for accurate target shooting, training, and recreational use. Its one-button takedown system allows the barrel and receiver assembly to separate from the grip frame quickly for convenient field-stripping and chamber-to-muzzle cleaning. The pistol combines a precision-molded polymer grip frame with a ventilated aerospace-grade aluminum receiver and tensioned, cold hammer-forged stainless steel barrel. The 4.40-inch barrel features 1/2×28 threads and includes a thread protector for compatible muzzle accessories. An adjustable rear sight, fixed front sight, and factory-installed Picatinny rail provide flexible aiming and optic-mounting options. The ambidextrous manual safety, checkered 1911-style grip panels, serrated frontstrap, and checkered backstrap support secure, comfortable handling.
