Jason Klein Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) I have been shooting 3gun/multigun for 15 years (although my scores do not maybe show that...). This year I decided to get serious, decide what works for me and what doesn't, and adapt. My shotgun has always been my bane. Starting with a Winchester SX3, then Remington Tactical, and finally biting the bullet and buying a Benelli M2. While the Benelli is supposed to be a great shotgun, mine always had issues from day one. First mod was the shell carrier/elevator, and I modded it before actually testing to get a baseline. THIS WAS A BA IDEA! Turns out that IT was most of my problem from the buzzer. Finally got that loading issue fixed, but knew my long game was suffering because I bought an 18.5" TACTICAL model. Looking back, I should have bought a field gun. So, this year I decided that I needed more sight radius and upgraded my beloved Benelli with a 26" vent rib barrel. Kenji and Joel at Taran Tactical Innovations have been instrumental in helping me get this beast running right. I sent them my bolt and had them do their magic to it (lighten, ghost load mod, out of battery loading mod, pretty color), ordered a spring kit from them (trigger, hammer, and recoil) and had all that installed in a matter of 20 minutes. Opened up the loading port. Added a +9 Nordeinc Components mag tube, spring, follower, and clamp. SO today, after installing my barrel, I am going to find me a HI-Viz front sight for this barrel and get to shooting. Nothing like upgrading the week BEFORE a major match. What does the wide world of Brian Enos Forums use for fiber optic front sights? I have more than a few dollars into my shotgun already, and a nice sight would do just the trick. Thanks for any help.

12Bravo Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) I personally use the site that BradfromND linked and like it a lot, but I have been told by different people that the flame sight limits bloom around the fiber. http://www.brownells.com/shotgun-parts/sights/front-sights/shotgun-fiber-optic-flame-sight-prod26019.aspx Edited May 25, 2016 by 12Bravo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcarpenter82 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 HiViz comp sight that has already been linked. Easy to install and comes with a bunch of varying sized and colored fiber optic rods. Inexpensive to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Klein Posted May 25, 2016 Author Share Posted May 25, 2016 I went with this one. Had it install in minutes and already shooting it. Thank you everyone!

poortrader Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 This sounds like my shotgun story. I started with Winchester Flangian SX3. 3 years ago, I jumped all in and got a Taran Tactical M2. My scores have definitely gotten better. I like the Tri-comp because I use it to help range my slug shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jswhitesell619 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I've adapted the buy once cry once deal. I was using my buddy's stoeger m3k and while I liked it I still listed over a Benelli m2. Bought one about 3 weeks ago, and 3 days later I sent it to Mike at Accurate Iron. The shotgun will be coming back next week some time and I am super excited! I figured by the time I bought some parts to make it where it was usable in my opinion I was a lot of the way to what Mike would do and have more work done. I'll definitely post some pictures up!

TRUBL Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I did this one........really makes you keep your head in the same position for each shot as you won't see the dot glow unless you are lined up. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0018FSEPE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's not any slower and for slugs......I've found that I do not need a rear sight.
