When I ;opped the 11" of barrel off my Home made HD Shotgun I lost my front bead.
For weeks now I have ben shootinng the guj , getting used to it and patterening it I have been shootin sans Bead and doing fairly well. Patterns were shot at 12 and 15 yards and I easily kept getting good sight pictures with the flat reciever top and the top of the barrel. In daylight this seem to work well.
I suppose I will need to get a 'smith to drill am tap to put the origonal bead back on but for now the shotgun is doin well.
I think that with the pratice I have done that even with low light conditions I could shoot reasonably.
No doubt that a Bead (even a small Brass one) helps aiming and I don't doubt that!
Anyone out there shooting a H/D shotgun without
