The Ruger Mark IV Lite pistol in .22 LR with a blued finish and 4.4-inch barrel (brand part no. 43961) delivers Ruger’s simple, one-button takedown system for quick field-stripping and proper chamber-to-muzzle cleaning. Ruger builds the Mark IV around a cold hammer-forged barrel for ultra-precise rifling that supports exceptional accuracy and longevity, and an ambidextrous safety plus adjustable rear sight round out the controls. Pressing a button at the rear of the frame lets the barrel-receiver assembly tilt off the grip frame without tools. Among rimfire semi-auto handguns, this Mark IV Lite configuration favors shooters who want easy maintenance and long-term accuracy.
