I ordered some new 30mm high rings for my Redhawk to mount the 30mm Ultradot I just ordered. When I received the rings; or should I say ring, singular.
I didn't realize they were sold in singles, not pairs.
Anyway, I look at the screws to at least see if the height I ordered was ok with the Ultra Dot. When I unscrewed the top mount to check and saw 3 torx screws and one Phillips. I thought it was weird so I called Ruger.
They stated they were transitioning to ALL Phillips head screws for their rings....
I cant see why they would change them out for Phillips, the lady on the phone didn't know either. She was just told they were transitioning and that I must of gotten a mis-matched pair by accident.
The only logic I could see was that it would prevent people from over tightening the rings.....
Any Ideas?
