Can anyone recommend a good peep sight for an 870?
If you have a vent rib on your shotgun you may have to use something like the williams peep.

If you have a plain barrel you may want to go with a ghost ring set up.

Both would require drilling and tapping.
Maybe someone else here has a better solution?
Good Luck!
Frank thanks for the advise, figures i have a rib....the brownells at 189.00 is more than i paid for the gun!
try the Dead Ringer....about 30 bucks. I have used this type sight on several shotguns over the years. Been deadly for me. It should work great on the straight rib of an 870.
Who is the dead ringer made by?
