Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ruger Mark II “One of the Last Thousand” edition is a highly desirable commemorative pistol that marks the end of one of America’s most iconic rimfire handgun designs. Introduced in 1982 as the successor to the original Ruger Standard and Mark I pistols, the Mark II refined Bill Ruger’s groundbreaking .22 semi-automatic platform with features such as a redesigned bolt stop, extended magazine capacity, improved safety mechanisms, and the ability to reliably feed a broader range of ammunition. Over its two-decade production run, the Mark II earned a reputation for exceptional durability, unmatched reliability, and excellent accuracy at an affordable price point. It became a favorite for target shooters, small-game hunters, and rimfire enthusiasts, cementing Ruger’s dominance in the .22 pistol market. The Mark II’s simple blowback design, robust steel construction, and intuitive ergonomics made it a benchmark rimfire pistol and the foundation for what would become a long-standing Ruger legacy. The “One of the Last Thousand” edition commemorates the final chapter of Mark II production before Ruger transitioned to the Mark III. These pistols were produced in a special run of 1,000 units, each marked and identified to signify their place among the last Mark IIs ever manufactured. This gives them a unique appeal to collectors, representing not only a limited-edition firearm but also a symbolic closing of an era in Ruger engineering. These models embody the culmination of over twenty years of refinement and user-driven improvements, making them historically significant within Ruger’s rimfire lineage. As both functional shooters and collectible milestones, the “One of the Last Thousand” pistols are prized for their scarcity, craftsmanship, and the legacy they represent—standing as a tribute to one of the finest and most beloved rimfire pistols ever produced in the United States.
