I rang and spoke with two different people to confirm that the mount can be drilled for the original crosspin and both confirmed that it could .i recieved and mounted my Burris only to find there not enough meat and you cannot use the crosspin.I rang and spoke to Devon at EGW and they checked and said that i had one from the old batch ,the new ones you can drill ,they did offer for me to send it back to them but did not offer me a replacement of the new type mount which is what they should of done .So as you can tell im a little annoyed -if your selling some thing at least know what your selling!!!!!

The mount was a poor fit on a new model Ruger Super Blackhawk. I had to grind down the lower edge of the step at the rear of the mount to get it to seat tight down on the frame. It worked after that and fit the Burris Fastfire well.

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. Unfortuantely, our mounts can not be a drop in fit on every firearm due to varying tolerances on our manufacturing processes and the company that built the gun, especially when working with cast frames. Since fitting is a common thing with our mounts, we recommend having a qualified gunsmith install them.

Only problem I had was the 2 screws for theFastfire seemed to be too shallow for the Allen wrench and rounded off on the inside, got one out but haven't had time to get other one out, the screws for Vortex seem to be much deeper than the other ones.

The mount and red dot sight arrived, and I mounted them with no issues. I dialed my .44 in with hunting loads, and the mount/sight stayed secure. I then fired 5 rounds at my ram at 100 yds, and hit it 4/5.

Shipping was prompt, packaging secure and installation and fit were perfect. I haven't had a chance to see how it holds up to recoil, but based on my research on this product, I expect good results.
