Years ago I had a smith cut my home defense Mossberg for choke tubes, which left only a few threads to retain the original bead sight. It didn't last long. I plan to drill and tap a new hole behind the choke tube and install a simple replacement sight. Put the hole in the right place, trim the shank of the new sight so it doesn't protrude into the bore, Loctite, etc...
I'm wondering how a replacement sight, such as the Marble Arms or Meprolight, is timed so it aligns correctly with the shooter's perspective?
The gun has a light, so I really don't even need tritium. I like the easy installation of the MMC front sight, but I don't think I want such a busy sight picture. It looks pretty high, too, but POA/POI might not be a big deal for across-the-room application...?
Any advice would be appreciated.
