Ruger's new Mark IV Hunter pistol is much more than an update to an already classic line: As American Rifleman's Joe Kurtenbach reveals in this video, it's a brand-new evolution and just bursting with innovation. From its elegant all-steel construction, fluted bull-style barrel and fully adjustable sights, this .22-caliber semi-auto pistol has everything a target shooter or a small-game handgun hunter could possibly want. It offers a simple, intuitive one-button takedown to allow for easy cleaning...and reassembly that's just as easy. As Kurtenbach demonstrates, this rugged firearm offers recoil so gentle that the gun barely moves when fired. Its long (6 7/8-inch) barrel allows for extreme accuracy as well, so even a brand-new shooter can experience the thrill of a tiny grouping. Watch this video for more details on why the Mark IV Hunter is perfect for beginners and skilled marksmen alike.
