Well, I'm about to plunk down the $ for a set of ghost ring sights for my 870, pretty much settled on the ScatterGun Technologies Trak-Locks. I know that Brownells sells the jig for the rear sight, anyone have any experience with it? Is the "average kitchen smith" capable of completing this project without totally screwing it up, or should I just have a real gunsmith do it? I don't have a drill press at home, but I can access one if I need to. How hard is an 870 receiver - do I need to use Do-drill or permatex on the bit? Any other helpful hints?
I see in the Brownells catalog that the front sight "epoxies on over the front bead". Well, the front bead left when I chopped the barrel. What's a good way to find Top Dead Center? Epoxy. What kind of epoxy? Acraweld, Acraglas? Something else? Is there anything I've forgotten here?
