Hi, /k/.

I recently obtained a Ruger 10/22 and a Redfield 6x magnification scope (has 5 gold stars on it if that makes a difference.

Since it's a fixed magnification, I tried to get a rail that would allow me to see my original iron sights. It doesn't show in the picture, but the small peep hole does not provide enough room to see the rear sight. I ordered it on amazon, in which the only review stated that it worked for theirs.

I was going to get a different rail so that I could adequately use the sights, but then the thought came to me that I could just drill the recess even deeper so that I could see, but I didn't want to bubba it up.


I'm presented with three options:
1. Bubba the rail so the sight it visible
2. Order a separate rail that DOES work
3. Order new sights that can be seen either through the hole in the rail or in the ring base

I would prefer to order new sights, maybe peep sights. What would you guys suggest?

Doesn't look like the factory rail unless they changed them. I think it should be lower.

The peep sight option might involve mounting the new rear where the rail currently is, so keep that in mind.

I will send you a set of super tall see through leopold 10/22 mounts free if I didn't throw them away and they're still in the box of stuff I don't use in the basement.

It's not factory, but special ordered because it was advertised that I would be able to still use the stock sights. It was false advertising. If it were milled but a millimeter or two lower, It might have worked.

If there are options for other sights to use that may work(a little higher sitting) then I would invest because apparently the stock sights are terrible when compared to aftermarket ones.

If you do this, I'll send you this rail and maybe some ammo for a trade.
>>
>>32551993
honestly with the factory ruger rail you can barely use the stock irons. and i mean just the rail
>>
>>32551993
>It was false advertising.
I think you may have misunderstood. I'm pretty sure they meant you can take your scope off and don't have to remove the rail. it has a groove down the middle unlike the stoke one.

why would you trade cheek-weld just to be able to see your irons? if you're worried about breaking your scope in the field, just get QD rings
>>
>>32552150
They were advertised as "see through" and inferred that the rail would still allow you to use the iron sights in the description.

I haven't owned a rifle before, but I was planning on using it with the scope I got with it, which, I believe would be very difficult for things that may be close. I tried these because I figured I would be able to use them if I wanted to use it for close distances, not necessarily that I thought my scope would break. I can also cheek weld if I use my left eye, but I haven't tried it out much because I haven't had the daylight to sight it in.

Not where I thought they were; I think I put them on an airsoft gun before I got rid of it. There's one more box somewhere around here.

These are the ones I'm talking about.
>>
>>32551766
Here's your problem; you are an idiot. You ordered something gun related, from Amazon, and expected it to work as advertised.

Sage'd, go to the QTDDTOT next time.
>>
>>32552410
I wouldn't have gotten them normally, but a verified purchaser told me that they actually did work. I don't know if that was a fake comment or what, but I'm not an idiot for believing that something works as advertised when someone else supports the claim.

In short, suck a dick.
