New Ghost Ring Sights From Spitfire Armory...

Post by JBall » Sun Nov 10, 2013 7:09 pm

Hey guys, been really busy and haven't been able to spend much time at the computer but wanted to give everyone a heads up on a new product a recently received and have begun testing. So far i really like them, are very durable, and seem to hold zero very well. A pretty cool way to breath some "Tactical" life into an old hunting gun. i suggest checking them out. I will be posting a review after a few more range visits so keep your eyes peeled! BTW, i have a ladder style rail cover on the rail in the photos.

(resized photos, they were too big)

What a nice looking shotgun! Really like this setup. New sights seem to be very good!

JBall, but you need to remove the front sight to disassemble a shotgun?

Yes, you do need to remove the front sight but it is as simple as one allen head screw and it slides right off. The extension helps keep the front sight square and seems to holding zero pretty well so far.

One of those "eye of the beholder" things... everyone will have a different opinion. Really like the rear sight but the front sight system doesn't resonate with me. Kind of a weird look. I wouldn't want to have to remove that every time. As long as YOU like it, that's what matters...

They're supposedly going to offer a front sight that fits into a standard Remington front rifle-sight base, and lines up with that same rear sight/rail piece. Not sure when they'll start selling it though, it's been listed as "coming soon" on their website for a while.
