The 22/45 frame brings a 1911-style grip angle on a durable polymer frame. Controls include a left-side magazine release and an ambidextrous manual safety, plus a magazine disconnect and a last-round bolt hold-open.
Sighting is straightforward with iron sights: a fixed blade front and an adjustable rear. A scope mount is present, and the pistol includes a single top Picatinny rail.
The semi-automatic blowback action is matched to Ruger’s one-button takedown, making routine maintenance quick. Capacity is 10+1 rounds of .22 LR. This example is a recent production piece from 2022 and carries manufacturer part number 43927.
