Because that's what US federal law requires. It seems that Europeans treat suppressors as a health and safety device (reduces the risk of hearing loss) and as a means of being polite (reduces noise annoying neighbors).
US lawmakers evidently have seen too many Hollywood movies that involve hitmen and assassins.

@257sleepy its a 22lr, and the 45 part shows that the gun was designed close to the size of a 1911 45.

the 22/45 is the same gun with a colt 1911 styled grip frame.
it is designed to appeal to 1911 shooters who are more comfortable or just prefer the grip angle and pointing characteristics of the 1911.

22/45 has nothing to do with whether it is a mkI, mkII or mkIII.
a 22/45 is the 22 model with the grip modelled after the colt 1911.
it is designed to appeal to 1911 shooters who are more comfortable or just prefer the grip angle and pointing characteristics of the 1911.

Right. Good luck getting a handgun in Europe. In Europe, they think guns and knives walk around all by themselves killing people. Excuse me while I buy an AR 15 just cause I feel like it.

@257sleepy It's the specific model of pistol. It's the 22/45 model, which is part of the MkIII series made by Ruger.
the name 22/45 means it holds 45 bullets of .22 in the clip

@Heylookaneagle I'm afraid you're incorrect. The Ruger website states that the .22/45 series of pistols only hold 10 cartridges in the magazine.
Their website also says "In addition to the identical grip angles, the 22/45™ features the same fire control locations (manual safeties, magazine releases and bolt hold-opens) as the 1911, making them perfect for .45 caliber shooters looking for an affordable way to train."

Is it a mark II or a 22/45? Looking at the Ruger website, the 22/45 and the mark are different guns.

@gizmoguyar 22/45, but it's the 22/45 version of the MkII rather than the MkIII. The MkIII 22/45 has a loaded chamber indicator, magazine disconnect, etc. Sorry for any confusion from the nomenclature.
