[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Simple ghost ring sight.

I was wondering if anyone sold a threaded ghost ring sight that I could just thread into the tapped holes in the receiver. I'm just looking for a post with a circle, not the whole dealie with the wings and all.

Seems like it would be very susceptible to damage, hence, the reason most of them have "wings and all."

Yeah, I was just hoping there might be a simple solution. I saw this in the pic thread and wondered.

The unit pictured above comes integrated on a dovetail for OEM installation by remington on exactly one model of 870.

The rear GRS set that XS sells for drill/tap install is sold "with wings and all":

Why?

Seriously, I love to shoot slugs out of my Wingmaster and 870 Super Magnum both have bead sights. I really don't see any point of ghost rings on a smooth bore.

Nights sights I could understand.

I'm not sure of the thread spec on this sight's stem, but if its a standard size you could drill/tap one hole in the receiver for this one: http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/ProductDetail.aspx?p=22927&title=LONG-STEM%20GHOST%20RING%20APERTURE

If you have a scope base you could use this sight: http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/ProductDetail.aspx?p=48&title=WEAVER%20BACKUP%20BASE
