Egw Sight Mount For Vortex Viper/Venom Fits Ruger Revolver Black
$44.99
If you're running a Vortex Viper or Venom red-dot on a Ruger revolver, the EGW Sight Mount offers a clean, reversible way to integrate your optic without permanently altering your gun. This mount replaces your rear sight via the revolver's dovetail, giving you a sturdy platform for your red-dot while keeping your original sight safe in a drawer. Need to swap back? Remove the mount, reinstall the rear sight, and you're done—no gunsmithing required.
The design is straightforward: the mount sits in the dovetail, locks down with a set screw, and accepts Vortex Viper and Venom sights with two button-head cap screws (included). EGW includes all the hardware you need, plus clear guidance on assembly: blue Loctite on the screws, 15 in/lbs torque, and you're ready to shoot. The 5/64" allen wrench required for installation is standard shop gear, and the included paper-shim trick keeps Loctite off your optic during setup.
Built for shooters who want flexibility—hunters zeroing a red-dot for close work, sport shooters testing optics on a revolver platform, or anyone who values the option to return their gun to original iron sights. This mount doesn't fit Ruger Flattop revolvers, so verify your model has a standard dovetail rear sight before ordering.
