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. One of the versions of the SSH pistol sold with a picatinny rail has the mounting holes in non-standard locations. The second SSH version comes with a factory optics mount. The mounting holes are the same as a standard pistol on this version. The picatinny Silencer Shop version that has 4 mounting holes in the top of the receiver is the Silencer Shop version. 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″. Make sure you select the correct version of the mount from the dropdown. If you aren’t sure which one you have, please reach out using the contact us page. 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.
- The Tactical Solutions uppers use a different thread pitch for the holes used to mount optics. I do not currently have the correct screws available. Please reach out using the contact us page for more info.
- Vortex Venom users: There’s more than one version of the Venom now, please verify which one you have before ordering on the Optics Compatibility page. If you have the older version, 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.
