Do you have to remove the factory front iron sight or does the break fit around it?

The break has a cut out for the front sight. No alterations to the rifle required. The one I received was snug fit that required a few taps from a rubber mallet.

You DO NOT have to remove or alter the original end barrel sight.. this thing fits PERFECT. and.. it makes your Ruger look awsome....

The break has a notch cut out so it would probably fit around it i mounted it on a marlin so i couldnt say for sure

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

I've had no issue, I checked this against the iron sights before installing a different configuration and it seemed to be spot on.

Yep, it's removable.I actually removed it from the pic mount to directly screw it onto a different system. The rail performed perfectly, I just wanted it mounted closer in line with the bore.Additionally, the sight came with (off the top of my head) the star allen wrench, the pic rail, mounting screws and alternate mounting screws.

you might have to file the rear sights, and for the front sight if your factory sight has a slant on the tip of it then yes if its more square like then no.

No. The RMR fits where the rear sight goes so it will not need to be removed for maintenance.

No. I had to take the iron sights off. The high point front sight sticks up too high. It would be in your scopes view.

Yes to the front sight, However... the Novak rear sight won't fit, only the adjustable.

I found the A2 replica front post sight to be very close to the M16 upper receiver A2 sight post which is a fixed post. What make this sight nice is that it is removable. However, I have a 1 x 4 power scope mounted on a 1 inch riser. I leave the front A2 mil spec attached for looks, it does not affect my scopes sight picture. I also have a carrying handle with integrated manual backup mil spec peeps, just in case my scope loses it's zero. With just a few twist of the binding posts' and a swap out, I am back in action!

Sight fits into the factory slot and tightens with included screw. Use some loctite and let dry for 24hr before shooting.

Front sight is held in with a small screw with very thin head that wil bend or break off if not removed carefully. The rear sight pushes out to the right looking from the rear of the slide. It must go back right to left. Should be done with a sight tool. It is recomended to have your local gunsmith do it for you.Rickwww.drarmement.com

Yes, the rear sight assembly has the necessary fasteners-the front is best installed using silver solder-you or a gunsmith.

No you will need a riser to clear front sight. Possibly a half inch riser will work.

For the front sight you will need a front sight tool, and that is something you will have to buy. As for the rear, i had to flip it over with a screwdriver.

The higher profile and hollow space beneath allow you to use the irons without having to remove the scope. Our model wasn't a takedown, but I believe those still use the same factory sights as other 10/22s.Whether your scope fits depends on the diameter of the scope. I had to wrap mine with duct tape to make up the difference because my scope tube was too small.

Yes it will, it went right on. BUT ... If you want back up iron sights, this blocks the factory ones. Look at the Ace In The Hole set of sights. They are sights, AND the rail. I have had this 10/22td for 3 weeks. And I have already moved on to the ace sight rail.
