Does the rear sight use the existing rear dovetail or does it mount to the scope mount holes in the receiver like the Tech Sights?

It used the dove tail, I strongly recommend you use a brass drift punch or it can be ruined easily otherwise.

It utilizes the rear dovetail. Makes it easy to install and adjust if needed

It uses the dovetail, I've had no problems the sight make it easy to aim for this old man.

Yes, you have to remove the rear site but it is pretty easy to do. Just remove the set screw, and then tap it out of the dove tail mount.

I believe that the rear sight is more of a straight up "block" sight instead of the sloped back "novak"...... should really be similar though. Hope this helps.

I had to purchase a browning buckmark scope base. It replaces the top rail and rear sight with a weaver type rail to mount a sight on.

Yes it will if it is installed correctly. You must have a good Mount and Good rings. If your scope is loose it will get toasted. I have fired about 100 rounds with the scope and it holds true. I removed the rear sight and pinned at 3/8 dovetail where the rear sight was. I am using the rings it came with. Hope this helps.

What are you mounting this to. I mounted it on a Mosin Nagant. I knocked out the two pins holding the rear sight and knocked the rear sight off the gun. the rear sight is mounted on a 3/8 inch rail which is the same size as the mount. I then tightened the screws and then put the scope in place

It replaces the original sight rail for the rear sight. There are two hex, or torx screws that hold on the old rail removing them allows you to switch the rails. The sight rail is part of the receiver and not the barrel I do not think the barrel configuration will make any difference. Hope this helps.

Yes, the rear sight assembly has the necessary fasteners-the front is best installed using silver solder-you or a gunsmith.

I'm not 100% sure, I dont have one of those. I think it will mount on the dovetail when you remove the iron sight

These require rings or a built in clamp on the sight. You slip these inside the clamps on the rings or base and use the tightening screws on ring or base to tighten down on the dovetail.

Can't answer this question because I have a special 18.5" barrel w/ heat shield and breacher on the end . No bead sight. This mount measures a little less than 1mm from the top of the receiver. I would think that as long as the front bead sight isn't to small it should work out alright.Hope this helps you.

You need a vise and a nylon or brass punch and hammer to drive the rear sight from the dovetail. After removing the rear sight, minor fitting might be required to install the base in the dovetail. After that, everything is pretty straight forward. If you are not comfortable taking a punch and a hammer to your gun, or do not have a suitable vise you can hold it with without marring the finish, I would recomend taking it to a gunsmith.

The rear portion goes on the receiver. If the front of your bull barrel is not dovetailed for sights, go to the tech sights website, they have an adapter for bull barrels.

XD has had the same dovetail specs since their first generation, therefore it should. In my case I didn't have a sight pusher tool (expensive tool) and had to do it with a nylons hammer and brass drift punch, it was difficult, I'd suggest you either have the sight tool or have someone put it in who does.

The front and rear sight mounting hole patterns are not the same on the ruger barrel by design. Sounds like you got two of the same hole patterns on your kit, just like I did on my silver version.

Yes you do, the rear base has to be drilled and tapped and aligned properly. The original bead sight that is elevated by a small platform, (on a standard Remington barrel) the bead will be removed then the trijicon will be dropped into place with epoxy and a pin. The pin just adds additional reliability so your front sight isn't just relying on epoxy to hold it.

This version comes with the low mount in order to accommodate how you look though the sight on shotgun and rifle stocks. If you are mounting it on an AR platform you want the extra high mount that they offer to make sighting in and possibly co witnessing your front sight post depending on what configuration you are running (fixed or back up sights) much easier. Hope this helps
