Sorry I was not more specific but I had my friend put them on while I watched and he's a Gun Smith. It didnt seem like it was tough it you have the right mounting screws and I really like the sights so overall im happy with the product. It's worth the money and a little tweaking to mount correctly.

Depending on what gun you want to mount the sights on. With the mounting equipment supplied, you will need to shave the screws down or get ones that are not supplied. I didn't have to drill and tap but you will need different mounting screws.

Just put one on a Colt 22 AR wuth A2 front sights and MOE hand-guard. It went on with zero problems. The thumbscrew needs some squeezing to take hold but that is the only small challenge. Solid component.

Good morning,Thank you for the email. Yes these have been mounted on 1911's before, but you need to buy the right mount as well. I would recommend getting a hold of Burris to get the appropriate base. You can give them your exact model of pistol and they will be able to tell you the right base for you to mount the sight correctly. You can reach them at (970) 356-1670. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.Thanks and God bless

You can mount a red dot sight on there. That's what I have done. I love the fact that I can still use the iron sights if needed.

the sight screws on fine with a drop of glue on the threads, go as tight as possible with it lined up right and stop... don't over tighten . ... after glue dries use small file to sand off post on the inside of the barrel.

It should work if you have the rail sustem to mount it just adjust your front site post. Buy the tool to adjust it. Its like 5 dollars and get a bore sight, thats like10 dollars. And your be on paper. Just have to tweek it to.your eye

I don't know which exact meprolight bead you have, but ghost ring sights are very tall, and I do sent look like it would line up well with the rear sight. If your receiver is already tapped, installing the rear sight will be easy; I only needed a gunsmith for the front sight. Those beads are pretty cool but I'd take the ghost rings anyday.

Confirm your rifle has 3 drilled/tapped holes in receiver on top from H&R (front hole is further apart than back two). If so, this mount is for your rifle. I have 3 of these rifles and the drilled/tapped holes are all same. This is a good mount at a cheap price.

Mine didn't fit as stock from the factory. Minor modification took about 10 minutes with a pencil and powered ultrasonic cutter. Dremel with cutting wheels would work as well. The spine above the site channel needed to be cut down to fit my optic mount. Finish it off with a small file or some sand paper... My M&P; CORE has a Burris Fastfire III mounted on it.

I don't believe the barrel was drilled and tapped on a 15 year old model from the factory. It has the same barrel contour as the newer ones that are tapped, so the base would work but you would need a gunsmith to drill and tap a few holes. The holes are located under the rear sight, so if you remove it you can tell right away if the holes are there.

There may be some tape on the inside of the barrel mount. If you remove it, it slides right on, no problem. The mount works pretty slick.

If your receiver is drilled and tapped. I would recommend having a gunsmith do Thorpe front sight none the less

well also bought the mechanically fixed HiViz sights they work are are helpful. depending on if you have a rail or smooth barrel would decide the type but in either case the rail mount winds up being about 18" apart when targeted with a laser bore sighting tool. Its just slaps on but sighting is another store.

A gunsmith will need to install it for you. As far as how to do it, it is fairly simple.Remove the front bead from the barrel and epoxy on the front sight. Then you need to drill and tap the reciever for the rear sight. If you don't have a gunsmith do it you could put on the sight at an angle or improperly. They are trained in how to do it properly. My gunsmith charged $75 and I was able to pick it up same day.

Not sure about mixing front and rear sights. I ordered both and had to return them. I could not adjust the front sight enough to zero the system.

These are fixed. But with my gunsmith they are dead on. If i were to do it again - I'd get the red FO up front and the dual green in the rear. Or maybe only the front FO in red.

I cannot answer this for certain. However I can tell you this is a sight which I like very much. It mounts to a pickitinny sight rail which attaches to the top of the rifle. A gunsmith can do this for you--quite reasonably--if you have a good one locally, or if the barrel is already tapped for attachment rail or already has a rail on it you should be good to go.
