RUGER® MARK SERIES "SHADOW" PICATINNY RAIL Reviews & Ratings
Gives me more versatility than the factory mount
Gives me more versatility than the factory mount as it takes picatinny rings. Fits fine, leaves a bit of a lip under each side, but the part of the base that is radiused fits the frame perfectly.
Installed on Mark IV 22/45
Installs easy, but strongly recommend going heavy on the loctite (similar to front sight post on the Ruger Mark series). It tends to loosen up while shooting. Mounted a Romeo5 on my Mark IV with this, and other than the screws backing up a bit, it worked wonderful. Went heavy on the loctite to see if that resolves the issue, but it fits really well on the 22/45 (non-lite version) and holds the red dot really well. As mentioned it does not hang over the barrel, has a cutout for the ejection port, and fits well. Zero issues with casings ejecting during a 300 round range session.
