I picked up a Tasco 42mm Red Dot scope today, thinking I would put it on my 10/22. Well it turns out it's made to fit on a standard weaver/picatinny rail, not the dovetail on the 10/22. I know I can get a rail for the 10/22, but now I'm wondering if I should just put it on my Mossberg 500. I'd rather have an open, holographic type sight for the shotgun, but this Red Dot seems to work, all though it looks a little funny.
So what do you guys think? Leave it on the shotty, or get the rail for the Ruger?
