Post by: Kyfoster11 on April 04, 2011, 07:07:37 AM
I need a set of sights for an 870 youth model 20 ga.  It had a set on it when I bought it but they werent adjustable and the gun is shooting off.  Anyone have any recommendations?

It depends on who is shooting it and what you like. 

I have an 870 compact and put a FF II on it for my son.  It took away his tendency to lift his head and shoot high.  Put the dot on the neck and he is dead.  Lethal out to 30 yds.

I bought a 20guage 870 youth model for my 9 year old son last year. I mounted a bushnell red dot on it.

He has killed 4 gobblers with it since he got the gun. He puts the bead on their neck, and they are dead.  I also got him some nitro shells for it this year. That little 20 is a deadly little gun.

Williams fire sights or a good mini red dot.
