MEPRO Tru-Dot tritium Night Sights Compatible with Remington 870 1100 11-87 Green tritium dots Glow on Sight self Illuminated Meprolight Fixed Metal Sights for Low Light Conditions

I was looking for a 3 dot sight that would be easy to use from dawn to dusk. The photo of product is misleading and daytime use there is little, if any difference between the stock sights that came on my 11-87. If I was rocking nightvision in Iraq this would be an excellent choice. They do glow but the camera intensified the brightness and they would pop in a set of NVGs.Will throw these on my gun for deer season but will more than likely switch them out for a set of Ameriglow sights if I can find them.Edit: have them on my 11-87 and they are a little better then factory. Was able to shoot 3" groups @ 75 yards. Dots do help in daylight so upgraded to 3 stars.

Item as described. Installed on my Versa Max without any modifications. Just unscrew the old and screw on the new. That easy. Seems to be a tight fit when screwed in. The bead is night sighted on both sides. Tube runs through to each side. In the daytime outside, light shines through around the tritium tube as seen in my attached picture. The brightness could be a bit brighter but not bad. My factory sig night sights seem to be brighter but that could be a sight to eye distance issue. Definitely not as bright green as you see the provided picture. See my other attached picture (sig p226 factory night sights marked MH3 on the left and the Mepro shotgun sight on the right). This shotgun sight is also marked with MH3. So I'm sure both of these sights are made from Mepro. Height of the green night dot/white day dot is same height as the Hi-viz sight. Not a bad product.

Nice balance of light intensity. Bright enough to see in the dark but not so bright it shines back and illuminates the shooter. Very usable blue light. Front sight brighter, round. Rear sights slightly less bright and easily distinguishable by shape and intensity from the front sight. Good design. My 870, manufactured in 1979, had a rifle sight (from a rifle not a shotgun) rear sight base, with dovetail. A mistake from the factory. I managed to get a correct base from Amazon which properly mated the Meprolight rear sight to my shotgun. Meprolight made their rear sight correctly. You may have a dovetailed base like I did. Don't blame Meprolight and don't pay a gunsmith to fix it. Get the right base. Much cheaper. Makes the shotgun correct, and looks good.The front sight took some work to slide into the dovetail. I had a little triangular file and took off a tiny amount of metal, and then the sight slid in with a drift and hammer. Very nice. Looks original. Works at night.

Got this for night hunting coyote and other predators...my aim point gets a glare in the glass if the moon is behind you plus I'm a both eyes open kind of person and used to irons from growing up and this is perfect nothing in the way, visible during the day and a very confined but bright dot at night just make sure you wait till night to see which side is supposed to face you cause if u try to guess both sides glow and look similar, directions don't tell you much but one side looks better than the other if u look close. Once situated I painted the end of a q tip with black plastidip I had left over and covered the rear side glow with a couple coats, could easily be seen by an animal looking in my direction with the glow it gave off on the opposing side. Took it squirreling the day after and it's sighted for about 45-50 yards with my Remington 870 sureshot express

You'll need to have the right drill/tap to mount this sight, it is a worth while pursuit. Easy to see in daylight with the fiber optic and all lit up in the darkness. Great price on an excellent sight. I used epoxy on the bottom of the base and threads and filed off the tiny bit of thread that came through the barrel. A swipe of cold bluing and it was perfect. It was installed on a Remington 870 16ga and well worth the small amount of effort expended. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

Ordered this product and it arrived on time. Only problem is I expected a set of both front and rear sights, as stated in the product description. The sight its self looks great and has just as much light as any Trijicon or XS sight I have ever owned. Unfortunately, I was only set a front sight. Still awaiting correction from the company.

This is better than a simple bead sight, but, after installing, I found that this sight is much dimmer than the Trijicon sights I have installed on other guns.Still, for those on a budget, it will be an improvement over regular sights.

This night sight stated it was for the Remington 870, yet when we received it and took it to a gun shop to be properly installed, they said it can't be and wasn't made for our Remington 870. Now I'm stuck eating nearly $100 because they don't allow returns. What a bunch of BS and very frustrating.
