Inspired by a couple of cool, fun YouTube videos I saw on the 930 SPX, I took an interest and looked for it at a recent gun show. It was a big letdown.
First of all, I found three and all three had loose forend. One of them actually rattled quite badly. What gives?
Second, the LPA sights were really tall. I couldn't even get a good chin weld, let alone a cheek weld. And I actually have a large head. How are people shooting this shotgun? The comb was better on the standard stock than on the Choate "assault" stock, but even on the former the sights seem to be too tall for any semblance of a cheek weld.
I understand that there is a stock spacer system with the regular stock that allows the comb to be raised by about half an inch or so (a little under, i think). Does that make a difference? How tall is that sight sitting on top of the receiver? Half an inch? An inch?
