Optima 2000 on a Ruger 22/45

I have a Ruger 22/45 4 3/4" bull barrel on which I want to mount an Optima 2000. Do I have to do anything special or can I simply buy the Optima and mount it myself? Is there any drilling or tapping that needs to be done. I would like to avoid the extra cost of gunsmithing if possible.



:) Thanks
 
I mounted an Optima on a 22/45 for a relative a little while ago. We used an EGW (Evolution Gun Works) mount. It was real simple, drift the factory sight out, drift the EGW mount in,install the Optima on the mount, sight in and have fun! The mount is super light and clean, it looks like the sight is mounted on the gun naked. EGW is really nice to deal with, good folks. BTW the sight works great. A few of the guys on TFL got to try it out at the last TFL shoot and they seemed to like it a lot. Marcus
