Shoots well for how I have treated and shot it- I wish I had your front sight.

I have a 12" barrel and they only put a bead on it instead of your high blade--- meaning it shoots 3-4 inches high and you need to bury the bead into the receiver (to the point you cant even index it) to be on target.

But- in terms of feed and shooting problems, after the first couple boxes I have never had an issue

I got a chinese 12" barrel for my 870 and it has this issue. Not sure how to remedy.

from what Ive looked at we can get aftermarket irons.... It just really hurts that the aftermarkets Ive seen are 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the gun.

Maybe someone here has a different option

If you are up for a challenge you can drill and tap the receiver and get a rail with the ghost ring from Odell engineering. They sent me one for free cause I had the V notch rear sight originally. And replacement barrels do exist online that come with the ramped sights. Other wise it’s a soldering job for a gunsmith. But regardless it’s definitely possible.
