How hard is it to have an 870 compact drilled and tapped, I am assuming that it doesn't come that way? Any pics would be great!

No they don't come drilled and tapped.  Had a gunsmith do mine a couple weeks ago with no problems.  just make sure who ever does it is reputable so you know they know what there doing!

Red dot. More than likely vortex venom.

No need to drill 4 holes and mount it on a rail. Drill & tap 2 holes in the thicker portion of the receiver and mount your Vortex on a Marlin 336 base. Clean and low profile...

Better yet purchase a saddle mount. At some point you decided to go with open sights. Simply remove the mount
