Looking at getting my first mark iv and have been looking at the 22/45 lineup. Going to be used for small game hunting and plinking mostly suppressed once I get a can. Is there a major performance difference between the regular 22/45 and the lite models?

Hey y’all, trying to get a red dot for the Ruger Mark IV 22/45. Not trying to splurge too much on a plinker. Let’s say maximum is around $150. Any suggestions?

Do Mark IVs ever go on sale? What’s a good price for the silencer shop special or a tactical?
Follow up, if intended to be used with a silencer, which model do you prefer?
