Accessories for Ruger Redhawk

The Redhawk is Ruger's large frame double action revolver, built for powerful cartridges. Hunters in particular look for a dot on it, because a single aiming point is quicker to place on game than irons.

What the mount does

Made of aluminium by EGW, it occupies the rear sight position and holds a dot whose footprint is RMSc, DPP or K-series. No permanent change is made to the frame.

Choosing an optic

Pick a dot that its maker rates for heavy recoil, and check that its base matches one of the three footprints.

After the first shots

Heavy loads work screws loose faster than light ones, so recheck the optic and mount after the first few cylinders and again after cleaning.

See the listing on Red dot mounts for Ruger Redhawk.
