Newbie question here.
I have a Mossberg Persuader 7+1 with a 20" barrel. I'm new to shooting and have surprised myself with my accuracy with my handguns, so... for fun I decided to get a rail and a Konus 7247 based on the recommendation of my local gun shop. I realize my Mossberg is designed as a Home Defense piece but I'm curious to see how accurate I could be with it. I'm also considering buying the 28" barrel available for this model. (No 24" rifled barrel is available for the 7+1).
Finally! My question- Where on the rail do I mount the sight? On the rear close to my eye? I noticed that this gives the widest range, but my 52 year old eyes see the dot a bit fuzzy here. On the front of the rail? It narrows the view considerably but the dot is REALLY crisp.
Please advise!
Thanks!
