Description
Designed to fit the Flattop like a glove, this mount is purpose built and will not be compatible with other revolvers like the traditional Blackhawk or Super Redhawk. By design our mount incorporates both the rear sight screw and rear sight cross pin. The only mount on the market that uses the rear sight cross pin for ultimate strength. Similar to magnum rifles with cross bolts through the stock, the recoil force transferred is shared among both points, ensuring a single screw is not responsible for solo duty. The cross pin also prevents any twisting or rotating of the mount, ensuring any bumps along the trail have no impact on changing your zero.
If you are inclined to drill and tap your gun for an additional screw but can’t bear the thought of ‘defacing’ your precious six gun, don’t worry, you’re not alone. That’s why we made provisions for a second screw tucked inside the rear sight pocket. While not required for full functionality, just a bonus for those who want to go the extra mile. Maintaining the original outward appearance of the gun is important to us, especially if you wanted to go back to open sights or preserve resale value.

The install was straightforward; I chose to drill & tap the extra hole. It looks & works just fine!
David Polasek (Verified Buyer) –
Installed the mount on a Ruger flat top .44 Special. Everything fit perfect though you have to be careful drilling the 1/16 hole for the cross pin. That small bit is easy to snap. Adding a red dot sight makes a world of difference for old eyes, crisp clear sight and target!
