LPA BAR Tactical Series Ghost Ring Rear Sight

Post by dunnman1981 »

If I attach a LPA BAR Tactical Series Ghost Ring Rear Sight to the picatinny rail on my rem 870, would i need to replace the front bead sight as well? Thanks in advance for any insight or advice!!

What sights does your gun have now?

Just the front bead sight on the barrel. I have a mesa tactical side saddle with integrated picatinny rail attached to the gun as well.

I don't think a factory bead sight is going to be tall enough to line up with an aftermarket ghost ring on a saddle-mount rail.

dunnman1981,
Not sure where you have gone with your front sights, because it has been a while but if you still need a front sight and The maker of the LPA Bar Sights can't help... and you only have a bead sight w/o pedestal, you might want to try the SpitFire Sight System.
They have a really nice front sight system that might work with other rear sights.
If you need info, SpitFire worked with me to determine my need for a front sight so they should be able to give you the measurements needed.
Their front pedestal sight will work over an OEM bead sight but not the OEM Pedistal Sight/Bead Sights and they have others.

Call them if you still need a front sight and they will work with you !
