Custom Shotgun Sights

Hi all,

I have an HK/Fabarm FP6. Had it for years and it's a great gun. However, I've lost my front sight. It had the little flip up fiber optic guy. And now it's somewhere in the woods of Northeast Goergia. Didn't even realize it was gone until I got home to put the gun back in the safe. I must have hit it on something while carrying slung across my back. So here are my questions

Anyone know how to get service done on this by Fabarm?

Anyone know of a place that will do custom Tactical Shotgun sights?

Can you put a simple brass bead on the barrel? I got no use fer no fancy pants nuttin on a shot gun.. I do 60 yards with a slug out of a smooth barrel and hit a vital zone size spot with all of them... Remember the lethal zone is increased... That slug will draw in ALOT of hydrashock value over ANY bullet. if you can hit an 8 inch or 9 inch paper plate you are gonna likely chase that deer less than a rifle guy hitting 5 inches too far back... physics... man a slug is devestaing...

with a bead you can hit a 8 or 9 inch pie plate......




with the proper slug sights you can hit a 4'' circle.....i would contact the company or bring the gun into a gun store and see if they can order a replacement....
