    I don't know if their 10/22 stuff is any good. The smaller items of theirs I've tried were good. Looks they have regular receiver rails our a mount that attaches to their takedown handguard so the sight stays with the barrel.

    This thing they make is super interesting:

    I know they advertise it for their 10/22 handguard but I can't see a reason why it wouldn't work for the Ruger PC Carbine handguard they make as well or even any other gun where you need a red dot mounted that low.

    You could be right. For the PCC/charger and for their lever gun MLOK handguards they have a different mount that turns the sight 90°. Maybe that gets the sight even lower to work with the irons on those particular guns better. Not sure but there's probably a reason. Probably.

    That is exactly what that 90° mount is for to get he red dot low enough to cowitness with the factory iron sights on a PCC/Charger. I don't like it because I'm not going to actually use a Aimpoint so the 90° mount makes it so I can't access the controls. ha.

    I have one of these mounts and they are worth the time and effort to look for. They mount seamlessly to the gun and keep the Micro low on the receiver top. I have this mount/Aimpoint on my truck 10/22 that I take off-roading. I wanted a simple, compact, bomb proof package and this has worked well for me.

    A while ago I went full A-Team on a 10/22 for my son, well really me, and add the sights from Samson Mfg to the folding B-Team stock: https://www.samson-mfg.com/mm5/merch...de=04-04082-01

    They worked out great, are robust and easy to adjust. The rail is great and having back up irons is a bonus to some.

    Let us know what you choose.

    That Samson rail looks really well built. I love that it's basically tech sights with a built in rail.

    Does that Samson 10/22 front sight use an AK type sight post?

    I can't confirm 100%, but it sure looks like one to me:

    Looking online I see some $10 Chineseum pic rails for 10/22s, including some on Amazon Prime, which is tempting, but unless it's actually the best rail for the job, I'd rather buy something nicer, US-made, higher quality.

    I looked around online but I can't tell what's good.
    Here you go:
    https://aimpoint.us/micro-h-1-red-do...r-10-22-mount/

    Aimpoint is selling a H1 with a 2 MOA dot + a direct mount to a 10/22 receiver for $475.

    Looks like you screw the H1 to the mount and then screw the mount to the receiver assuming you have one that is threaded aka anything made in the last 20+ years.

    Aimpoint makes (or made) a direct Aimpoint micro specific mount for the 10/22.

    Why bother with pic rail if you don’t have to ?
