Pros & Cons
Pros
On a sunny day, the bead is easy to bring on target. On a cloudy day it's not near as bright, but that is to be expected. Being fiber optic it works best outdoors with sunlight. Decent illumination in low light.

Highlights
Quality
This one is pretty solid, and i had no problem drilling and tapping the vent rib for the installation.
Installed on a maverick 88, my threads were chewed up from factory and the threads on the truglo were strong enough to cut out ... Read More
This sight is made of metal and threads on tight.
I screwed it down as far as it goes, it lines up straight and does not extend in to the barrel.
Price
I installed this on my mossberg maverick and it costs less than $20 (at the time of buying it).
I used a set of tiny files i have that i got at harbor freight for just under $5
A little pricey for what it is in my opinion.
I know this kit comes in a universal kit with multi threads also so might be just a 1 size fits all option to save on cost.
Shipping
Product showed up within the time schedule.
Competitiveness
Its a replacement for the little gold stock bead the mossberg 500 comes with, its very small.

If this is something you dont mind doing took about 3 min with a mini vise and a 3 dollar set of needle files from harbor freight for the price of this product its a very decent upgrade

I cant comment if others are a better buy or are more precise on the install since this is the first direct thread in front sight i have upgraded vs something like dovetails on pistols
