can you fit a backup iron sight under this? I know offset sights would be better but if i have an MBUS rear sight will it fit under the scope?

if you changed to look through rings maybe but that mbus when deployed stands really tall. with what comes with it no. also, you would have the mount the scope farther forward that would be comfortable to shoot typically. I believe this has 3-4 inches of eye relief and you will need two inches to accomodate the mbus

The scope mounts very close to the rifle with the rings that are included. Also the scope is too long with a short eye relief so you will not have room for any iron sights. I ended mounting some offset iron sights and they work surprisingly well.

I had to remove the rear iron sight due to the low profile of the scope rings. If you wish to keep the iron sights on your firearm, you will need to use high (versus low or medium height) rings.

no there is no room under this sight for seeing your fixed sights. You would need to mont the fast fire to the side.

Yes, this is just like the original military mount, same as an over under sight, allows full use of iron sights. The only thing is may require a tad of fitting since all receiver width are a bit different. Once fitted, it reliable and repeatable.

I'm not 100% sure, I dont have one of those. I think it will mount on the dovetail when you remove the iron sight

If you have the ati scope mount that's drilled yes... just the rear sight mount no.. recommend the ati set up drill and tap... best way for a sturdy mount

My iron sights work with this on my takedown, however, there is multiple versions of the takedown now. If your rear sight sits up a good bit you should be good to go.

It is considered a high mount, providing proper clearance and eye position. If you have a fixed sight and low power setting on your scope, you will be able to see that front sight. You might try a folding front sight to cure that problem. If you are trying to co-witness iron sights and scope, it will not work right, because of magnifying effect, even thou the height will be right.

You have to take off the rear sight to put the rail in its place- so no you can't use the iron sights. I think the rail is about 6" long, but you can cut off any excess

Yes, however you are going to need a 1/2 inch picatiny riser to allow the scope to cowitness the rear and front sights. Cowitnessing means that the sights/dots on the scope fall perfectly in line with your iron sights.

it should be fine. it's not completely tall enough, but with a scope the worst you might get is a slight blurring of the sight at the bottom of it. most likely you will not see it. I eventually removed the front sight block and but a gas block with a short rail section on, I wanted offset sights so I could tilt the rifle and use iron sights if the shot was to close.

There are two pins on the iron sights, you will need to pound those out and mount it on top the existing iron sights.

The iron sights that came with the 10/22 will not continue to work as this rail mounts in place of the rear sight on top of the main body. So you can have either the iron sights mounted or the rail - not both as they use the same mounting holes. There is another rail available that comes with a built-in rear peep sight but this one also requires replacing the front sight as well with an included fiber optic fire-light type because the hight of the rear sight is taller and won't align with the factory front sight. it is shown on the Ruger web site and is listed as "10/22 Ace in the Hole Set" The iron sights that came with the 10/22 will not continue to work as this rail mounts in place of the rear sight on top of the main body.

Yes, it is possible to fit optics on this gun. THIS GUN CAN NOT SUPPORT A RAIL which means you have to get a specialized red dot sight (or something along the lines) that fits right over the iron sight. I personally like the iron sights but a red dot should work fine

hey jason, I ended up with this set after returning another. the key is the the rail at the scope mount is the right size. I put it on a low cost savage arms .22 rifle it did the trick and still allows me to utilize the iron sights if I want. The best thing to do is find out amazons distributor and give them a call and ask. Thats what I did when I ordered the second ones. Nice gun that henry golden boy. i almost bought one but decided to go a bit more economical

I have it set up on my AR and it has it's short comings. I would prefer the sights to be alittle higher. If you're not running back up iron sights then it works great.

It should line up fine, but you need to ensure you have enough railspace and the mounts put them at the same height. However I really would not recommend putting this behind an already magnified scope. This is made for use behind a red dot or holographic, not a magnified scope. Hope this helps.

Yes. The rear sight can be seen through from a little further in front on the rail. There is also the limited visibility aperture (larger hole) that can be flipped up as as well. This may not be as accurate as " normal" but, remember. We're talking about Back-Up Sights.
