I am currently looking at two different mounts for the Ruger Redhawk. One is by B-Square and the other I am not sure of. Both are listed in the few August catalog I got from Natchez.
An old hunting friend had a stroke and is kind of bummed he can not shoot a rifle to deer hunt, so I thought with a RED DOT on my .44 magnum Ruger Redhawk, I could get him a stand where the shots would not be too far, and he could still deer hunt with all of us (If we have to carry him out there)
What's a good mount for this revolver? Also is this something I could consider a gunsmith installing or is it a rather simple operation? From the photograph of the mount it looks like it attached to the barrel rib of the revolver somehow and the braces against the frame.
I already have the RED DOT but have to hurry so I can sight it in and get it all ready for him to try a few shots before season...
The item # in the Natchez Catalog is # F89BQ42863 & # F89BQ42985
thanks in advance for the help and guidence.

WEIGAND: Weaver style Scope mount for Ruger Super Redhawk Tired of the limited application of the Ruger factory rings that came with your Super Redhawk. Now you can change the Ruger mounts to a versatile Weaver style rail in just minutes and with no permanents alterations to your gun. Lightweig

the rear sight comes off and I take it you use that screw hole, but what else? Also where can I get one of these. I never saw one before.
thanks for the reply. That looks like it will work just fine.... Thanks!!!

I called a local gunsmith and asked their advise of the two different kinds of mounts. They of course recommend the one that required them to tap the revolver. I am more inclined towards the one that does not need to be permanently mounted. My only concern is whether the other would be secure enough. I only wish I could get some hands on.. maybe it is time to travel to some different gun shops and see what they have in stock. I thank all of you for your advise and guidance..
