Hey all, new member here.
I've got a Mossberg 500 with an 18.5" barrel with the breacher lug on the end. Exactly like this:
I'm looking for a rail system to put on, similar to this to get good sight distance:
The one above won't work because the forward section is too big (estimated around 5-6") compared to the space between the forend and the taper of the breacher lug (about 4")
Does anybody have any suggestions? I like the look of the rail system, but my main objective is to have sights better than what my 18.5" barrel has on it right now,which is a mossberg 5-40 thread post like below. I hate just having 1 post, which is why I'd like to go with something like ghost ring sights. I'd like the sight distance to be as far apart as possible.
My shotgun will be primarily set up for HD, I'd like low profile sights similar to ghost ring sights... even something like Magpul's MBUS sights are too tall for my tastes. I'm open to a low profile rail and reflex sight combo as well.
I've looked into Aimtech's Warhammer as well. That seems like an okay option, but i don't know if it's adjustable enough to fit with a breacher barrel.
Any help is really appreciated.
