The LaRue Tactical Ruger 10/22 Top Rail (brand part no. LT178) replaces the factory sight groove on a Ruger 10/22 receiver with a full-length, 6-inch 1913 Picatinny rail, giving shooters a rock-solid mounting platform for a red dot or scope. Machined from black-finished aluminum to LaRue’s usual tolerances, it bolts directly to the 10/22’s receiver without any drilling or gunsmithing. It’s built for 10/22 owners upgrading from open sights to optics for plinking, small-game hunting, or competition rimfire use.
