“I had to file off to much material off of it and this made it very difficult to mount. I figured it would come ready to install i will have to buy another one and spend extra money to have it machined so it fits tight. I wish i would've known it needed to be machined to specs before hand.”
Im sorry to hear that you ran into issues when installing our mount. For the most part machining is not necessary when installing one of our mounts. We stay on the larger side of tolerances since we have no control over the the dovetail cut in the slide. We would rather have the mount be a press in fit or on the larger side than have it be too small and then there is no way to mount the dot on your gun. Due to this we always recommend having a gunsmith install our parts.
“Took it into scheels to have installed on my Ruger SR9C and they had it done in 5 minutes. Have yet to shoot the gun, but looks nice with the fast fire mounted on top.”
“Have not shot the rifle yet. The scope is mounted. quality appears excellent. I'm using this to shoot service rifle. Would it be possible to lower the center line of the rings any more. Service rifle shooter's are limited to a 4.5 power scope max. So large objective lenses aren't an issue. Just a thought. I'm using the Leupold scope sold by White Oak armament. Lower would give shooter's better check weld.”
