Gunsmithing Scattergun Technologies/Trijicon 870 Sight Install

[Insayn]

I just purchased a set of Scattergun Technologies/Trijicon ghost ring sights for my Remington 870. Problem is it doesn't have any instructions on sight placement to the receiver and I cannot find any info on the Internet. Anyone have experience with them? I will epoxy and pin the front.

Here you go.
The provided epoxy does not take heat very well.
Had the thing fly off during a slug heavy 3-gun match.
The little bugger has since been tig welded and hasn't come off.

you're more than welcome to send it to my shop and I'll install the rear sight. I have the original fixture for it

I install these all the time I recommend that you also pin the front sight after the epoxy has set for 72 hrs. leave a clamp on it for 24-48 hrs.

I normally score the existing front sight base with a file and remove the bluing from the area under the new sight. Have not had one come off yet using this method.
