This Ruger 22/45 Mark III Target stands out with its 5.5-inch stainless heavy bull barrel, brushed stainless upper, and the 22/45 polymer grip frame that mirrors a 1911-like grip angle.

It feeds from a detachable box magazine and includes one 10-round magazine.
The full-size configuration, stainless construction on the upper and barrel, and iron sights configured for target work make this a straightforward, purpose-built .22 LR pistol.
