I have an old Ruger Mark II handgun that I want to put a scope on.  I would like to drill and tap the scope mounting holes just like the newer production models. Can anyone tell me what the hole locations are?  I think there are three holes.  Thanks for the help.

Look for a pistolsmith that has the special jig for that.
I had a 'smith do it that didn't have the jig, and it came out OK.  He used the scopemount base as the jig, I guess.

Instructions for drilling and tapping the Mark II are available from Ruger. I'd try contacting Ruger Service.

Also, this is the mount that I used to mount a scope on my Mark II - http://www.jackweigand.com/rm2fd.html

Tasco makes an red dot sight that will mount using special rings that press fit against the curves of the Ruger Mark II.  I've got one of these and they work great.  No holes are necessary and the little .22 shoots sub 1" groups at 25 yards all day long.  Mine is all stainless (color...no blue) and looks good.
