Richmond Hill, Georgia– October 2023– .22LR Pistols are easily the most affordable to shoot and worthwhile purchases for those training or even the survivalist-minded. Ruger has long produced one of the most popular .22lr semi-automatic pistols to ever hit the market. Their Ruger MK I-III was not only popular but saw a lot of industry competition as development advanced. As time passed and pistols developed to become easier to field strip, Ruger took the platform and made a new MK variant that could easily break down to be cleaned: the MK IV.

While the MK IV came in a wide range of grip styles, that didn’t detract from the versatility and utility of the firearm. With many models of the RUGER MK IV coming standard with a rail system, users could add optics that are mounted via Weaver or Picatinny mounting systems. This made it possible for a user to become more accurate or comfortable with the system, but the reality is that most pistol red dots don’t have this mounting system.
C&H Weapons Systems is releasing an entire line of MKIV mounting plates, which replace the factory rail and can be adapted for a near custom and solid fitment of various red dot optics designed exclusively for pistol use. C&H plates are mounted to the receiver via two screws to align with the factory mount placements. There is no adverse effect on the irons installed, and it allows for a shooter to co-witness or increases height with factory optic risers for adapting to suppressor use.
In the first release, scheduled for shipping to begin around September 10th, 2023, three plate footprints will be available for purchase. They will be Lite to Holosun (Holosun 407K / 507K / C&H EDC), Lite to Trijicon (Trijicon RMR / SRO / Holosun 407C / 507C / 508T / C&H EDC-XL / COMP), or Lite to Aimpoint (Aimpoint ACRO / C&H DUTY) and is the only mount to have a railed section.
It’s time the RUGER MK IV users have options. C&H Precision is meeting the demand for these options with three of the most common pistol red dot optic footprints. Those who use the MKIV as a training tool can now practice on an inexpensive and easy-to-shoot firearm while using the optic they intend to mount on their primary or concealed firearm. Available for pre-order now and shipping near September 10th, 2023, with an MSRP of $49.95
