Which plate fits which Ruger

• Ruger 57: Outer Impact type C fits Trijicon RMR, C-More RTS and Docter. Type S fits Shield RMSc, Leupold DPP and Holosun K-series. See Optics ready plates for Ruger 57.

The plates are machined from aluminium in the USA.

Installation

Remove the factory cover plate from the optic cut. Screw the optic plate into its place, then screw the red dot onto the plate. No milling is needed and you can do it yourself. Threadlocker on the screws is recommended.

Frequently asked questions

Can I install the plate on my Ruger at home?

Yes. You need no gunsmith and no milling. Screw the plate onto the factory interface of your pistol, then screw the red dot onto the plate. Put a drop of threadlocker on every screw.

Which red dots will fit my Ruger?

It depends on the plate you choose. Every plate takes one footprint or a group of footprints. For Ruger pistols we have plates for the Trijicon RMR, Shield RMSc, Holosun K-series, Leupold DPP, Docter and C-More RTS footprints.

Choose your red dot first and find its footprint in the specifications. Then take the plate with the same footprint.

Does a Mark IV plate fit my Mark III?

Yes. The plates are made for both the Mark III and the Mark IV.
