Default Sights, You Make the Call....

I know this has been discussed before but being that turkey season is just around the corner I thought we might have more traffic in this forum thus generate a broader response...

If you could use any sight on your shotgun what would it be? Iron sights, red dot sight, scope, or just plain bead? Why? Finally, what is your current set up and how has your experience been with it?

I still use the old front bead.I got a set of tru glo sights for Christmas about 6 yrs ago and they are still in the package.I have nothin against any other type of sight but the old style has been workin for me for alot of years.

I choose to use a scope on my 870. To me, that is the ultimate turkey gun setup. I guess this will make 11 yrs. now that I've been using it, so I've had my share of experience with a scoped shotgun. My choice for glass is a Leupold 1x4 shotgun scope.

For me, it's the only way to go. I would hate to have to go back to shooting open sights again!

I would go with the Tru Glo turkeys sights. Excellent in low light condition.
