        This is a Ruger 22-45 with 5 inch bull barrel.  The pistol is stock except for the dot and mount.  The scope mount is B-Square and the scope is a Tasco PDP6CMP.  The scope mount comes off easily by loosening 2 screws and removing the rear screw.  I have seen some other scope mounts that replace the rear sight.  They work just fine but swapping back to stock iron sights requires the use of a screw driver.  The dot is 35mm wide with a 16 minute dot.  It is great for speed shooting sports because it is so large.   Picking it up for your first shot is fast.  I have considered cutting the mount down to the length of the scope.  It is much larger than it has to be.  I would move the dot back one more slot and cut it at the rear edge of the ejection port.   It is very reliable with Federal Lightning ammo. 

What do I have in it?
