I have wanted to get a set of ghost rings for my HD shotgun, now I think you all have convinced me.
Now, Night sights or no?

Man those things are salty!

I've been contemplating what I should do with mine also, but with a pistol grip I don't think I'd use those sights?

This is the sight I put on my shotgun...but I was to lazy to have my barrel and receiver tapped and in all honesty I never use a sight on a shotgun anyway..instinctive shooting FTW

nah...with a PG shotgun those sights would be over kill.

No !!!

I'd like to put new sights on my "hallway broom" but those are about half what I paid for it in the first place.

I'm telling you Aimpoint Micro, it will triple the value of the gun

I have an ACOG on my vacuum

 

[groovatron]

...is that a smooth bore barrel?

Yes it is.........good or bad?.......I'm ignorant.

 

[RelicHound]

seriously guys...if its a HD gun/hallway gun why do you need sights? save the money youd spend on the sights and put a good light on it...put the light on what you wanna destroy and squeeze the trigger,I guarantee you'll take out what ever needs to be taken out.

 

[Naptown]

-1 for sights. I wear glasses and wouldn't be able to line anything up with sites....

Hmmm... our hallway is about 7 yards long or so. How big is a pattern of buckshot at that distance, even from an open cylinder bore?

I think I'll just mount a glock with nightsights to the rail......

 

[RelicHound]

thats good since itll be an HD gun...rifled barrels are for shooting sabot slugs. the smooth barrel is for shooting anything from bird shot to rifled slugs.
if you shoot buck shot or bird shot out of a rifled barrel the shot will spin in the barrel and scatter as soon as it exits the muzzle.

The beauty of the shot gun!

I am more concerned about a new light, right now all I have is a mini mag light with a pressure switch...
