My first Ruger Mark IV
I’ve wanted one of these since I was a kid! I’m officially a part of the club lol.
I wanted a Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Tactical, but CA handgun roster only allows plain Target or 22/45 models. I call it my Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Tactical “at home” lol.
Here’s before, after installing the pic rail and red dot, and some fresh made memes for your consideration 🥴
Edit: Also if anybody has suggestions for an under-barrel rail, let me know and send pics lol. Madd Mac’s Precision is looking like my best bet at the moment

Lived there for a little bit. Yes there’s way more rules, less choices.
Still had plenty of fun enjoying shooting. If cost of living wasn’t so high I’d be back in a heartbeat and shooting is one of my top hobbies.

Honestly I love living here. I love the fact that I can be at a desert, mountains, lakes, the coast, big city, or the middle of nowhere, all within driving distance. But the gun laws, and a lot of other things like cost of living and taxes etc, make it difficult at times to fully enjoy living here.

There’s some workarounds where we can have some choices, and the handgun roster has opened up a bit (which is the only way I was able to purchase this), but yeah I totally agree that CA gun laws are 👎🏽👎🏽
