Description
This mount allows you to mount a red dot optic to the top of your Ruger pistol.
Not sure which optics pattern to choose? See Optics Compatibility for more information.
Compatibility notes:
- Silencer Shop recently released a couple branded version of the Ruger Mk IV 22/45, commonly called the Ruger SSH. The version of the SSH pistol sold with a picatinny rail has the mounting holes in non-standard locations. Make sure you select the Silencer Shop edition version of the mount from the dropdown if you have one of these pistols. The second SSH version comes with a factory optics mount. I haven’t tested this version of the pistol, but The mounting holes are supposedly the same as a standard pistol. The picatinny Silencer Shop version has 4 mounting holes in the top of the receiver. My mount uses two of these holes, spaced 2.758″ apart, leaving one hole exposed. The standard Ruger pistols have 3 mounting holes, and my mount uses the two spaced furthest apart at 2.5″. You might also want to check out the set screws available on the Assorted Screws page if you want to plug the exposed hole left by the original rail.
- Ruger recently released a model number 43949 pistol with a unique vented rib top rail. The standard version of my mounts (not the Silencer Shop version) are compatible with this model.
- Vortex Venom users: The mounting screws that come with your optic are too long, you’ll need some from our Assorted Screws page.
- Primary Arms SLx RS-10 users: The body of this optic is thicker than most other Docter pattern optics. You’ll need some longer screws from our mounting screws page
- The Aimpoint Micro mount is a tight fit. Please check the Installation Instructions page before ordering.
