has anyone installed this on an older series Mini 14? (specifically, 181 series Ranch rifle) think my sights are wider.

If I remember right, I had to toss mine. It had 4 screws that were used to lock it on and only 2 of them were unlockable. As such I could not put it on the frame. I ended up going and getting the better known one, a Weigland(?) that worked like a charm. I would spend the money to get the better model if it were me. Sorry....my answer is negative

If your ruger mini-14 has a ATI 45 degree stock top rail that at least5" long it should work.

It's made for a Mini 14, not a Ranch Rifle. SN 582 is a Ranch Rifle, there is a difference. I have a standard older model Mini 14 and it works great. If you have a Ranch Rifle, you may need to look elsewhere.

BlueDog, I don't have a Ruger Mini 14 (I wish I did). Measure the stock from top to bottom then follow the size chart. You want it to fit snuggly so if the size of your stock is near the point where the two sizes overlap, go with the smaller size pad. A slip on pad that is too loose will tend to move around during use. Good luck, and happy shooting!!Ron Lilly

If you have mounts to mount it on that rifle it will work fine. There's no way it will get as much shock as it does riding on my Mini-14.

Mine sighted right in no problem. Try remounting it and use a bore sighter, if you can't line it up without using too much adjustment it could be a problem with the sight itself.

Visit the henry website. They have sight options for the golden boy. I bought mine for the low end 22lr. No, they are not on upon installation and I did not notice much difference from the stock sights. I will add a scope eventually.

Brandon the answe to your question is negative. These sights are specifically for S&W; M&P; full size, not for any other model.

I use this sight on a mini 14. The blade is adjustable for height. The sight sits on a picatinny rail mounted on the rifles barrel, this sight is the high sight. I believe they sell a lower type sight that accounts for the front a rear rails on a AR-15 being of equal height. My rails are not of equal height, my front rail diffenitly sits lower than the rear. They both match, I used a laser bore sight to adjust them with.

It depends on the rifle and rail system. It did not on mine because I usually use MAGPUL fold down sights that stay out of the way.

I installed the AccuStrut on a Mini 14 Ranch Rifle that I had customized with a tactical stock, a custom 3.5 pound trigger, scope, and sling. Considering the mod's I made to the rifle I am not sure if the barrel is more stable due to the strut, but it does add to the "cool" factor. I think that the faster your trigger finger and higher number of rounds through the barrel makes it more susceptible to movement so I am keeping the strut. For the enthusiast that shoots a magazine and puts the rifle away it would not be necessary.

I own a Colt M4 carbine and I have the M2 front sight. It's factory and I don't want to mess with it. I have a Trijicon and a Bushnell sight, and ordered the UTG-1" adapter rail because the front sight was too high and the ACOG sight was not working. The 1" seems to do the trick for both sights, but I have not been to the range yet. That will tell the story, but I'm sure the problem was solved with the adapter.

yes but a lot of scope for a mini 14. I had a mini 30 and used a more compact fixed scope.

XD has had the same dovetail specs since their first generation, therefore it should. In my case I didn't have a sight pusher tool (expensive tool) and had to do it with a nylons hammer and brass drift punch, it was difficult, I'd suggest you either have the sight tool or have someone put it in who does.

Mr.Olson I lined up the factory stock of my Mini 14 GB model. I had placed a 1 inch rubber stock extension on this stock. I lined up the two stocks and the Hogue that is currently on the rifle lined up with the factory stock including the 1 inch extension. Both stocks gave me the length I needed, I just like the Hogue better. Hope this helps. Dave

Mine didn't fit as stock from the factory. Minor modification took about 10 minutes with a pencil and powered ultrasonic cutter. Dremel with cutting wheels would work as well. The spine above the site channel needed to be cut down to fit my optic mount. Finish it off with a small file or some sand paper... My M&P; CORE has a Burris Fastfire III mounted on it.

It should fit just fine. According to the directions, you might need to use a flat file on the bottom of the sight in order to make it fit correctly. I had to use one on mine.
