Anyone got a 500 or 590 will a rail mounted on the receiver? If you do, have you tried any front sights? I am kindof looking at the TruGlo TG131SG.
I think I have decided to not put a ghost ring sight on the rear because the channel that is cut out of the picatinny rail works perfectly as a rear sight, but the factory sight is too low to use with the rail. That gets me to my actual question. Has anyone with a 500 or 590 with a rail on the receiver tried the TruGlo shotgun sight on the front? Is the sight tall enough to look down the channel on the rail and still get point of aim within reasonable distance? I know a lot of people feel that you don't need a sight on the front of a shotgun, but I liked the sight on mine before I put the rail on it, and would like to keep a sight on the front of it, I just need it to be a little taller, and brighter doesn't hurt either.
