Good to know! Did you face any issues during the installation on your Ruger? I’m debating if it’ll work on mine.

Installation was a breeze for me too. Just remember to use the right torque settings. No compatibility issues on my Winchester either!

I actually had a hiccup with mine. It didn’t fit right on a bull barrel, which was unexpected. Just be cautious about the diameter. Some barrels may need specific adjustments.
