TOTAL FAILURE
I had the rail installed just to find out the rail screw holes were slightly off. The rail went on but would not line up for a scope. When trying to remove the rail to return it one of the mounting screw stripped out and now the rail will need to be removed by a gunsmith, IF he can remove it. I would not under ANY circumstances nor for ANY reason EVER recommend this product to anyone. I know now why it was so much cheaper here at Brownells. I am very disappointed by both the maker & seller of this junk.
