Information no-one here cares about but I am tickled by…
Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc. has announced the highly anticipated, heavily redesigned Ruger Mark IV pistol. While the pistol maintains the same classic outward appearance as the Mark III, its simple, one-button takedown for quick and easy field-stripping will be a welcome and appreciated change for fans of this model. A recessed button in the back of the frame allows the upper receiver to tilt up and off of the grip frame without the use of tools. The bolt simply slides out of the receiver and the barrel can be properly cleaned from chamber to muzzle.
The Mark III is one of the most notoriously difficult pistols to disassemble for cleaning. For them to make the next model the most painless to disassemble is amusing.
The Mark III is a long barreled .22 calibre target pistol for those who don't know. Which is probably everyone here. They're a lot of fun to plink with.
