Need a sight for a MkII
Hi gang -
I have a Ruger Mk II, bull barrel, VQtrigger and comp, with an UltraDot sight. Really sweet shooter.
I enjoy shooting it, but between the bull barrel, the comp and the UltraDot, the darn thing weighs about as much as my AR15. I find myself passing it over unless I shoot it early on shooting days.
My question, I am thinking about removing the UltraDot and putting some sort of reflex/holographic site on it to lighten it up some. I don't really know anything about these things since I shoot with iron sights on everything I own except for an eotech on the ar15 and a scope on the .308.
Suggestions on a nice sight to put on it that won't weigh a ton? I plan on keeping it for a long time, so on this project i subscribe to the buy once theory rather than start small and work up LOL.
Thanks for your time and suggestions.

Re: Need a sight for a MkII
Or another option would be the Ruger Lite! Only 23 ounces and an awesome shooter.....threaded barrel for comp or suppressor.....mine is still new, but I have shot a little over 300 rds thru it and no complaints so far....will be shooting it later today!

Re: Need a sight for a MkII
I mounted an aimpoint h1 on a 22/45 to play with at the range once. I liked that. I havnt seen a smaller optic that was as bright as an aimpoint, for bright sunny days the aimpoint was nice. I realize that is an expensive option, but they have a lot of advantages.

Fast fire , best price for durability , and after all it is a 22 pistol so most anything should serve the gun well for a very long time.
