    Need rail mounted ghost ring sight for 590

    Help!

    I bought a Mossberg 590 a while back (Black Friday last year) for home defense.

    I found a rail/side saddle (Max Mount) I liked and mounted it. Problem was that the rail sat up high enough that the bead sight became useless. My solution was a Burris Fastfire II.

    I have since decided I don't like fumbling for the little switch on the side when something goes bump in the night. I would like to replace it with ghost ring sights, but I want it to look clean. Rear sight needs to mount to the rail and, ideally, the front post would use either the existing sight bead hole or be a slip on tube; I would prefer not to mount a rail up front to hold the front sight post.

    I would also like (not required) a sight that has two dots on the rear and a single dot up front (line up the three dots and squeeze the trigger...) with self-illuminated tritium being a bonus.

    Early on it looks like the GRS that comes on the Mossberg SPX line might work, but I am unable to find any for sale.

    Does anybody have a recommendations?

    This is the LPA mount Mossberg is using with their SPX shotguns:



    You would need a front post, and most likely it's going to be a gunsmith job. Why not just take the shotgun to the gunsmith and ask him to source the items for you?

    I found a guy who is using the GG&G Quick Clip Sling Thing for Dovetails as a rear ghost ring:



    You will still need a front post for this, though not as tall as the LPA one.

      This should fit what your looking for. I think they have a clamp on style band for the front site as well.

      We manufacture the best night sights, sight installation tools, ghost rings, AR BUIS, shotgun beads, and optic mounts for all your favorite gun brands.

        Thanks Mesa. That looks pretty good. I'll have to shop around a bit more to see if I can get the price down.

        97F150, nice sight but it does not appear to be rail mounted.
