The design of the Ruger Mark IV Hunter will appear quite familiar to fans of the classic Mark series of firearms, but despite their similarities, the rimfire pistol underwent a major redesign to include a takedown button, making disassembly much easier. For more on this .22 LR-chambered firearm, check out this Rifleman Review from a recent episode of American Rifleman Television.
