Re: Shotgun Lights
Thekatar, Good point.
I neglected to mention that when I decided on a location for the pressure switch, I placed it so my thumb wasn't "forced" to rest on the switch for exactly the reason you stated. (light ND) Just because there's a light on the gun, doesn't mean you should use it. It's placed in a position that's optimal for my hand placement and enables me to choose "light or no light".
Mtbkski, Regarding the Ghost Ring sights... yes, I like them. No I did not install them. That's a Mossberg Peruader (500) with the 18" (18 1/2?) barrel and it came from the factory with the Ghost Rings. (I just changed the rear stock) I can't recall if the guy at the shop recommended them and ordered it that way or how exactly they came to be on that shotty, but I'm pleased with them.
As a kid, I never hunted much small game, (only fired my 12GA single shot a few times back then) so I don't really have much to use as a comparison for "sights". I just know that when I shot Bigjlen's gun with no sights, I missed all 5 shots on the star, and when I used MY persuader, it felt like I was cheating... it was so easy.
