Hey guys, just got an 870 for Christmas. Nothing special, wood stock, 28in barrel. I ordered an FDE Magpul stock and foregrip this morning. Looking for a magazine tube extension right now and getting the barrel shortened this weekend at the local gunsmith. Trying to figure out what to do for a front sight. Either have the gunsmith put a bead on it or not sure what.

Hey, baggedcobra! Welcome to the forum!

How about XS Remington 870 Pedestal Big Dot Tritium Sight?

But if you have your barrel shortened, you will need different version, this one attaches to existing bead...

I was thinking the same thing Vitaly I just didn't want to tackle the cut barrel situation.

Is it a vent-rib barrel? If so, the rib is a pretty good sight even without a front bead, but if you really want one, there are plenty of easy-to-install front sights designed to attach to a vent rib.

hey guys, yes it's a vent rib barrel. I put the Magpul SGA stock and Magpul foregrip on this weekend. The magazine extension tube, GG&G follower and L&M flashlight mount will be here this week. Still haven't got the barrel shortened. Never made it to the gunsmith this weekend. Appreciate the feedback.
