I was recently in the market for a 22 pistol. I wanted something for small game hunting / camping / general out-in-the-wood use. I ended up going with a Ruger Mark IV. I wanted something with a fixed barrel and sights fixed to that barrel (as opposed to reciprocating on a slide) for accuracy. All of the pistols on the market that fit this criteria are accurate and reliable, but the only pistol on the market I could find that was both easy to take down and didn't require tools to do was was the Mark IV.
