I'm curious those who had problems with the mount slipping around, were you attaching it above the barrel or below. it's designed tohang below I think

Mine is attached below and on the barrel but every so often I have to tighten it. I believe this is caused by the force of the blast after you fire so many times.

I mounted it below the barrel on my shotgun. It did move around a bit. I put small strips of rubber in the clamp and it helped.

I had it on the magazine tube. But, the shock of firing quickly loosened it.

I thru mind in the trash. A total waist. It made the gun heavier and awkward to sight. I even had to modify the slide lock by fileing the pivot area to keep it from binding when in place. In answer to your question, just remove the slide lock lever, after removing the recoil spring and bushing, then place your rail mount over your slide aligning the hole on the mount over the slide lock hole, then insert the new slide lock, (provided) and align with hole in the mount and gun and insert threaded pin through mount, slide lock and gun. Tighten everything. Make sure slide lock doesn't bind.

there are holes on the top for a mount bracket. you might need to buy it from the ruger manufacturer.

That's a good question. I'm actually mounting it to the gun today and hope to zero it in soon, perhaps this Sunday. To me, I would assume that would be the case. My gun has only two slots where the mounts will fit.It should stay 0

The rail was initially a bit loose on my GSG. I put two small pieces of electrical tape along the inside edges of the mount. With the tape in place, it tightened up snug.

I use my numark on top and it fits under the slide self and perfectly rests on the mounting rails. it is a little unstable, but nothing a couple pieces of rubber weather stripping didn't fix.

It sits great. Problem is mine came canted. Checked on my WASR and Arsenal on both canted to the right same angle . I bought it to use with red dot so was able to fix it with that. I saw some people were complaining about rail being canted. I guess just my luck. Otherwise it sits nice and snug , very low above dust cover and holds zero. I hope that was helpful

are you sure you mounted it correctly??? just saying because i mounted it for my girl friend and it works great...she loves it. when mounting it you don't want it binding.

Yes i noticed that to. Mine does not do that. Its rock solid on the rail. I have been shooting 23/4, 3in shells and it has not moved at all and is still spot on. Hope that helps.

It is a very stout mount, to try to bend it to get it over your barrel would be risky. I would try to find a 2 piece unit or have one made. But for the price you could get one and if you brake it or deform it beyond use you are not out a lot of money. Good luck

mine did also, my son adjusted it and placed it back on the weapon shot over 200 rounds since with no problems. If not I would have sent it back as it got wobbling got worse until it would not stay on weapon rail.

It is an excellent mount for the AR-15 Colt. Never heard of anyone having a complaint...excepting one individual had an issue with it staying tight. I doubt anyone else has had the same issue so I wouldn't expect it to be a problem. If it was on a big caliber light-weight magnum, perhaps it would be an issue...but I doubt it.

sorry, can't help you - mine is mounted on a carbine and sits well back of the muzzle

depends how close you mount it to other items and how much slack you leave between the crown of your barrel and the wall hook. I mounted it too close the first time. I left a good inch of slack and now its quite quick. Id be comfortable with having to go to my weapon in a pinch.

My AR has a carry handle so mine is mounted on that with a see through mount. I might suggest a set of see through rings. Hope this helps.

Bar was placed in afterwards. The mounts flex slightly and U can adjust the bar up or down. I tried mine in both positions.

I have it mounted on my Mossberg 715. I first put it on and then marked the hole on the barrel. Took it off and carefully/lightly drilled a small hole for the set screw. I did this because others complained about it coming off while shooting. It has not moved.
