Key Features – Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Anniversary
22/45 Frame – 1911 Grip Angle
The 22/45 designation means this pistol has a 1911-style grip angle and dimensions.

Third, the 22/45 frame is made of polymer – lightweight and durable.
Fact: The 22/45 frame is specifically designed for shooters who prefer the grip angle of the 1911 or Glock waffen platforms.
One-Button Takedown – Easy Cleaning

Accuracy – Legendary Ruger Precision

For New Shooters

Carry it as a backup while hunting with your bolt action rifle like the Remington 700 or a high powered bolt action rifle.
For Plinking / Recreational Shooting

For Collectors
The Anniversary Edition is a limited run. Therefore, it will likely appreciate in value. Add it to your collection alongside competitive edge dynamics chassis, parforce gear, and Triebel Berlin parts.
