    The Mark IV is a great platform from Ruger and about time. The breakdown and larger controls are great. And the one piece pistol grip instead of two pieces.

    I had the mark 3 version and I would love to have it again. I really liked the way it took down. I always thought it was cool. I gotta admit I like the fluted barrel of the hunter though. 😎👍

    Pretty sweet, especially the new take down. I don't think I'm gonna trade my mkII Target in anytime soon, but I definitely think anyone in the market for a competition rimfire should check this out.

    The trigger gets MUCH better with use. I have this gun in a Mark II and the Target model Mark III also a Mark IV Standard.

      LateNite yeah I still haven't done the trigger swap yet because I'm waiting to see if it cleans up after break in

    I had the Mk2 for years. Now I own the Mk4 and thinking about putting a Red Dot site on it. Love these little pistols.

    The Trigger is hopeless for a so called “competition gun”
    I put the Volquartsen trigger kit in it, it’s a massive improvement.
    The firing pin broke last week, put a Volquartsen firing pin and extractor claw in it.
    The grip thumb ledge is annoying, changed the Grips.
    With the Vortex Venom red dot fitted it’s as good as it gets.

    I assume if the grips were changed you would need to change the mag release button to standard length too.

    I handled one in a shop this afternoon and loved the balance. A friend of mine has one on order. I've only owned the 5 inch bull barrels before, but I sure like the way these longer barrels give a longer sight radius. With the other features you talked about I'll probably make the switch. I didn't know you could remove that safety on the right side of the gun till I saw your video. I would definitely do that on mine.

    I agree, for the $700 I paid for this gun, it should come with a 2 pound or less trigger pull! I tell you, for a precision it makes a world of difference. On my CZ's Rifles, I out a Timney with 8 OZ and my groups improved drastically!
    With that off subject somewhat. I need to know how adjust Iron sights on this. Mine shoots Low and left!

    Hi, is this gun also suitable for single hand shooting at a range? I love the looks but I need it to shoot accurate on 12 meters single handed....

    • @SlimCowboy
      @SlimCowboy  4 года назад

      ampelmannddr Yes the gun is quite accurate my eyesight isn’t the greatest but at 25 yards with a 2 moa reddot I can hold a 3-4 inch group just plinking away and I can tell the gun is much more accurate than I am As far as single-handed shooting you should be able to accomplish it no problem

    I haven't purchased the mark4 yet but I was wondering why you chose the competition over the hunter? I am considering the campition model. I liked the way you removed the ambidextrous safety on the opposite side. I didn't know that could be done. Great review. Thanks.

      Go online and find out. This review is several years old. Certainly the price has already increased. But guessing from your negative attitude, it’s probably more than you can afford.

  • @OReactor
    @OReactor 5 лет назад

    1. You don’t two hand a competition pistol.
    2. You don’t put green dot sights on a competition pistol.
    Basically, your review means nothing.

    • @SlimCowboy
      @SlimCowboy  5 лет назад +16

      OReactor oh how I love dealing with a "Know it all" to your first point I would direct you to go watch the video Ruger released when they announced the gun showing the guy shooting it with two hands then watch 22 plinkster (small RUclips channel you might've heard of) shooting the gun with both hands then perhaps you'll notice the thumb rest on the left side of the gun allowing for an excellent thumbs forward two handled grip (almost as if it was designed that way) then I would go watch Jerry Miculek (he dabbles in competition shooting) shoot pistol consistently 2 handed into your second point well there are many different classes of competition shooting you can put whatever the hell you want on your gun in most of them which is why the gun happens to be drilled and tapped from the factory for a rail and scope (go figure) so in short basically your comment means nothing.

      Slim Cowboy I’m not a Know It all. I don’t know what life looks like on other planets. Say what you want but green sites are not good for Competition Precision shooting.
      I apologize for assuming you were using it for Competition Shooting, where you use one hand.
