edit: update.

Appears as if the rail Ruger pc9 is out of spec. the rail appears too wide to for the eotech.
Ill have to put some calipers on it later and contact the dealer

----------------------

I thought I saw a post somewhere on this I just can't seem to find it so going to post one up.

Rather disappointed that I cannot fit a new $900 EOTech on the Ruger pc9 (adjustable stock). It does mount on the small forward picatinny rail over the barrel but not on upper rail. No idea why on earth Ruger would do this. Not a spec rail?

Anyways what red dot sight are you using on your Ruger?


edit post:

Anyone out there got an eotech xps to fit their pc9?

Apparently the rail may be out of spec or may not seat the eotechs specifically? After some digging I dont appear to be alone

quote, for example: "Just picked up the PCC Chassis. The instruction booklet says "optics and optic mounts that extend more than .275" below the top of the rail may not fit the PC Carbine." I could not get the Eotech EXPS 3-0 to mount but the Sig Romeo 7 went right on. The Eotech will go on the shorter rail above the barrel which might enhance accuracy but is not as easy for my eyes. "

And Vortex Razor AMG UH1 apparently same issue:

Not sure what’s happening there, but I have a gg&g QD mount on my eotech and it spent sometime on a ruger pcc (receiver) rail. How is it “not fitting”?
 
Bushnell TRS-25. My favorite little red dot, I think I have 3 or 4 of them now on various rifles. Cheap and they just work great, better than any other red dot I have ever bought actually.
 
I run a Holosun 503CU mounted elevated on the barrel and have co witness magpul flip up irons.

They all work great. Had to make a custom .22” height M-Lol rail for the front site to mount on. For now I just 3D printed one. It seems to be holding up fine. I’m still going to sand one down that’s made of aluminum though.

I have a Sparc11 on mine which has worked well. I have a Vortex Crossfire2 on another PCC and at $199 is a pretty nice sight as well. Any of the popular brands will serve anyone well. Buy at whatever price point you can afford. You have lots of options. I have not seen much light between any of them.

Take Care

Anyone find a mount or rings with a see-through that allows for use of the factory irons? I've tried everything in my parts bin but the channel is either too high or too low.
 
Do you guys lose zero when you take it down?

I got a section of picatinny rail coming that I want to mount, going to to remove the rear peep site and place it there.
