Better sights and flashlight mount on a budget!
Hello folks,
I am new to this forum. Happen to be surfing around and found this site. You guys seem pretty cool, so I thought I'd ask some questions you may be able to help me with.
I have a new Mossberg 590 Marine 12 ga. The bead sight on it is not to good. I want to put a better bead or ghost ring sight system on it, but I don't have a lot of money to throw around. Plus, I want to add a flashlight mounting system as well. Just want to use it for home defense and survival protection. I had a good look at Brownells and they recommended a couple of good choices for a bead sight that were only $35. I live in New Zealand now (last place of posting South Carolina) and the shipping costs more than the sight. Some of the web sites I visited in the States don't ship overseas, so if you have any suggestions, it will have to be a site that does (I'll research it). When I do buy what I need, I'd rather pay one shipping cost as you would understand.
Anyway, any good suggestions, besides duct taping a flashlight to the barrel?
Regards, Doug

How about something like these?
Just kidding. I installed Mossberg factory ghostring sights on mine. I don't have a flashlight mount though.

Hope the weather up there is better than down here, some summer.
