Ruger 90465 Picatinny Rail Black Anodized Steel Fits Ruger 10/22/Charger Pistol - SKU: 90465 - UPC: 736676904655
Product Description
The Ruger 90465 Factory Picatinny Rail is a genuine OEM optical mounting base engineered specifically for the iconic Ruger 10/22 rifle series and 22 Charger pistol platform. Manufactured directly by Ruger to precise factory specifications, this scope rail upgrades standard dovetail mounts to a universal MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny interface, vastly expanding optic compatibility for magnified riflescopes, red dot sights, and reflex optics.
Precision-formed from high-strength steel with a durable matte black finish, the 90465 rail delivers maximum structural rigidity and zero thermal movement under high-volume shooting schedules. Designed with exact receiver-contour matching, it sits low over the action to maintain proper cheek weld and optimal optical axis height.
Featuring full-length Picatinny cross-slots, the rail provides ample eye-relief adjustability for a wide variety of scope ring spacing options. Included with the rail are four factory-correct mounting screws for a seamless, non-permanent drop-in installation on pre-drilled Ruger 10/22 and Charger factory receivers.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Direct factory fit for standard Ruger 10/22 receivers, 10/22 Takedown, 22 Charger pistols, and aftermarket receivers matching original factory top hole geometry.
- Verify host firearm is completely clear, magazine removed, and chamber visually and physically confirmed empty.
- Thoroughly clean receiver top mounting threads using solvent to remove oil, grease, and manufacturing residue.
- Position the Ruger 90465 scope rail over the receiver mounting holes, confirming proper forward orientation.
- Apply a single small drop of blue threadlocker (Loctite 242/243) to each of the four included mounting screws.
- Torque mounting screws evenly in a crisscross pattern to manufacturer specifications (typically 12-15 in-lbs) to ensure secure lockup without stripping receiver threads.
