Yes GRSs are tacti-cool looking, and the may be faster for acquiring a sight picture. Unless you are Mil/LE and involved in team assaults, I doubt you'll have to time to acquire a sight picture with your tactical or HD shotgun.
Think about the evolution of the "tactical" shotgun, the GRS was selected for aimed shotgun applications because Mil/LE special ops types were already experienced in the use of receiver sights on rifles -- many with AR sights that could flip between large and small aperture. So, the large aperture "ghost ring" was nothing new to them. But, shotguns with these sights are typically used in special situations where there is time to acquire a sight picture. The typical LE shotgun still has a simple bead front sight and is used in the traditional point-and-shoot without having to acquire a "rifle" sight picture. IMHO, anything more than a simple bead on a HD gun is just more stuff to get in the way. YMMV
