Guess what, I've been after a Ruger Mk. IV .22 for ages but haven't bit the bullet. Why? Too busy collecting Glocks perhaps, messing around with Lee Enfields, AR 15s and all of that. Whatever the case, .22 pistols have slid me by. But everything's changed.
The awesome Ruger Mk. IV's been reengineered with a view to easier take down/cleaning. You may recall this wasn't easy, and now the problem's fixed. Solution, good work, Ruger, and I don't know about you but I'm more than tempted to get one of these little blasters. Here's Hickock in review:
Look's good, right? But maybe I should hold out for an awesome High Standard. Hey, why not both, to maximize benefit, there is that. In other news, the ridiculously behind the cultural 8 Ball King of England has declared he's the "Defender of Faith" in a multi-faith kingdom. Hate to say it, and I really do, but the monarchy's obviously part of the problem in Rainbow Utopia UK.
That aside, surely a new Ruger IV makes sense,

King Chas keeps flirting with the word "apostate."
I do not think it means what he thinks it means.
The gold standard for target 22's used to be the Colt Woodsman and still is the S&W Model 41 (although the apostates at Smith are about to quit making them) but for Everyman, the Ruger will do just fine. That said, a S&W 17 or 18 require no pesky magazines and I'm hearing good things about the new Colt Cobra.
The Mk IV is one sweet gun-fits my hand perfectly and is so easy to shoot accurately - but what a flipping PIA to disassemble/reassemble. Kinda wonder why it took Ruger so long to fix that.
