The Target configuration centers on the 5.5-inch bull barrel for steady sight tracking and repeatable accuracy. Sights are purpose-built for precision: a pinned Patridge-style front blade and a fully adjustable square-notch rear.
Construction is all stainless with a brushed/matte finish on the frame and tubular receiver. The pistol wears black checkered synthetic grips with Ruger medallions for a secure, consistent hold.
Controls are classic Mark II. It uses a heel-type magazine release, a manual thumb safety, and a last-round bolt hold-open via the bolt stop. The right-side scalloped ejection port, twin grasping ears on the internal reciprocating bolt, and the backstrap takedown latch reflect the platform’s straightforward, serviceable design.
This example was manufactured in the United States in 1985, identifiable by the 211- serial prefix. It is chambered in .22 LR with a 10+1 capacity and operates on a semi-automatic blowback system.
