Trey333, Welcome to TFL

I'm old school. I'm a firm believer in, Gun Fit , Training BA/UU R, and RELIABILITY.

Gun must fit YOU, it is an extension of you. Before youy bolt stuff on - get training, lessons, shoot other guns with stuff bolted on. Pattern the gun with pellet loads and shoot for groups with slugs. Each gun has its preference. Then when you find a Defense Load - run a minimum of 200 rds for reliability.

Use light loads for practice - promo dove and quail loads won't recoil as much as defense loads - This allows for learning the PROPER basic concepts of mounting gun to face.

Start with 25 mounting and dryfire Using proper technique - work up to a 100 a day.

Why did I mention all this stuff? It is the shooter - not the shooting iron. ONe cannot buy targets and skill. So with what you have and using the suggestions I gave - try these things first.

There is LOT to be said for a stock SG that is handy and quick to handle and no bolt ons that can go wrong and affect reliability.

About the only bolt on I really care for - a surefire .
