Aperture Sights for Ruger 10-22 barrel?

[bruceflinch]

Didn't find on Ruger, Midway or Brownells.

I have a stainless & a blued barrels. Standard Taper 10-22.
I would like to put dual aperture sights on at least one of them.

Suggestions?

The tech sight will provide the rear peep, but OP is also asking for a front globe with aperture insert. I'm guessing like me his eyes can't focus on a front post anymore. The front aperture helps to be able to see sight and target clearly. You would think some vendor has come up with a simple clean solution for this considering all the 10/22s that are out there. Maybe there is but I don't know who it is.

Here is what I put together from parts that I already had laying around. The trick is to get the front sight axis at same height as rear sight axis. I had to use two dove tail blocks stacked to get this one in range of the adjustments on the rear peep sight.


I went with this Savage rilmfire bolt gun to serve the same purpose, they have a model that comes with front and rear apertures. I also added aftermarket sights to a Marlin lever rimfire to achieve the same purpose.



There are a couple of options for the the front globe sight if ordering parts to frankenstien a set up on a 10/22. Do a search of "front globe sight" and "sight riser blocks".





Not in the same budget range as a 10/22 but here is my ultimate front/rear aperture rifle which also has a + 0.5 diopter lens in the front that helps a whole lot.

Thanks for the links. I'll check them out.
Yes I'm older and can't focus on a front post sight.

I used a lyman 20MJT front sight on a .250 dovetail riser block for my standard "carbine" barrel plus the william's foolproof sight that mounts on the rimfire dovetail scope rail.

If i had to do it again, I'd recommend a different rear sight. I had one of the lyman side mount versions installed on my Savage MkII and it's a much cleaner install. The "euro style" rail mounts are another good option, but they're also taller.
