I've had this 1978 Ruger Standard .22 pistol for about 10 years now. Iron sights are the shits, so I picked up a scope mount and a used Burris FastFire II red-dot reflex sight at the gun show two weekends ago. The mount cost me $5.00 and I gave $15 for the sight.
I got to sight it in this morning, at 25 and 50 yards respectively...
The reason it was a so-so day was that while trying to tighten up the 50 yard groups, the mount slid forward 1/2" from the recoil. I kept trying to adjust it out but didn't see the problem until I got home. The problem is now fixed.
