ffgats Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 which Dawson front sight? If I may ask, hope XS sights will sell just the Rear and not a set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fangalang Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I have Hi Viz in front and XS on rear on my M2 21". So far my slug shots has been dead on. I would highly recommend the combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idHawk Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Rear Pat, How do you sight in with your set-up? Windage can be handled with drift, but what about elevation? I would imagine that each shotgun may require a different height front sight. How do you determine what you are going to need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffgats Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Rear Pat, XS shotgun rear sight? or any pistol XS rear sight, sorry for all the questions about your equipment, you cant blame us, you are our idol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.E. Kelley Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 XS makes shotgun sighst that fit the rib (as seen above) they come in a 3 pack (different heights for elevation adjustment) I like a more pronounced notch rather just the "V" so I use a round file to make it look like the one above. In my set-up windage adjustment can be made by drifting the front and or rear to suit. Hope that clears things up. If not ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffgats Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Thanks Pat for the clarification, I did not know they come in 3 rear sight in one package, XS sight did not mentioned in their site., thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot find it on their website. 2. What height do you use for the front site? I imagine any pistol would site would work. Dawson? I only ask because I have some .180 Dawson STI cuts laying around.

P.E. Kelley Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I have yet to find them on the XS website. I have had to call. I have had god luck with the Caspian front. 0.160" high, but I would use a 0.180" if it were on the bench at hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Sierpina Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I have yet to find them on the XS website. I have had to call. I have had god luck with the Caspian front. 0.160" high, but I would use a 0.180" if it were on the bench at hand. The sight description does not say anything about 3 rear sights. The set is SG-3001-1. This is the plain front, not tritium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These sights are generally set in a dovetail of .050" deep so keep that in mind when selecting or installing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpom Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Rear is a mid rib bead and front is a high Hi Viz. Works for slugs, as long as I keep the bead in line with front FO dot. SG is a JM930. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skytoad Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Has anyone mounted a very shallow V sight into the receiver instead of in the rib for a Mossberg JM Pro? Any suggestions for a shallow V sight that would work in the receiver. Is the Mossberg receiver material thick enough to mill/machine a dove tail groove to install a shallow V sight?

Deerhunter9790 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) I had Steve Rose put a Bomar rear adjustable sight on my 1301 Comp. Hard to miss with a slug now Edited August 23, 2015 by Deerhunter9790 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Dunlop Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I use sight black to define the mid rib bead for slug shooting, the black bead 'eclipses' the front fibre optic and I find it works pretty well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 SMSI look me up over in Italy and you can check out my 10-22 flip up sight first hand. I know I have posted all sorts of pictures of it, and a bit of searching might just bring them up. In short, yes they are a very viable option.

Phil Dunlop Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I recently installed a 10/22 rear sight, just over an inch ahead of the receiver at the base of the rib. I'm using a hiviz front sight, which is very low on the rib so I had to file most of the rear sight down to get zero. It shoots really well with bird or slugs and I was surprised how much easier slug hits were, right out to 100yds, and I can fold it down out of the way if I want to.
