Given you like your ruger MK II Target , you might consider a Ruger MK II/III/IV 22/45 LITE. The light is about an inch shorter and a full 15 oz lighter. ( The 22/45 Lite uses a 1911 styled polimer frame and aluminum upper that puts it just about 1/2 way between the MKII and Glock) It's also highly customizable with aftermarket parts if you want to taylor it to your needs/wants. Another one I could recommend would be the Browning Buckmark series ( particularly the Micro if you want to shed weight.) The Buckmark is another well proven design with lots of factory and /or aftermarket options.

I’ve been very happy with my 2245 Lite Mk IV with a Volquartsen trigger upgrade.

I own a lot od .22 revolvers and pistols. If light and compact is the main goal, you can't beat the Kel-Tec P17. Accurate and so light it feels like a toy gun. Fantastic trigger. However, my main plinker is a Browning Buck Mark.

Dude... you need your eyes checked.
If I got seen with some of those space guns you posted above, Roy and Bubba would be giving me that worried sideways glance.

This little guy, even with that crappy laser/flashlight weighs under a pound with a loaded mag. Slips in and out of a pocket slick and easy, and I shoot like John Wick with it. $179.95 a year or so ago. jd

easy to take apart and service, change barrels, modify etc
Fabulous Trigger
mine is ALLLLLLMOST as accurate as my High Standard (1" groups at 20 yds)
(probably depends on the ammo )

Been packing my p17 around for years now. Sure, its ugly. But its cheap and I dont have to care about it. Lives in the belt pouch on my pack for all of hunting season. With my form1 can and a loaded mag its right at 1#. Put plenty of ptarmigan and grouse on a stick over the fire with it.
