This particular scope is actually quite ideal as its 1-4 and can be used with two eyes open It may have to stay right where it is . That went on there like way too easy ,,
I do have a red dot aim point that I was going to use .

I'm bad and tend to shoot my shottee like a rifle one eye closed most times and always have for many years

Still seems to drop most stuff it gets pointed at .
Few quick pics for you .. Long hang out over the stock. Be hard to get a short red dot to work possibly. ?? That eye relief there is perfect for me to grab it and have instant acquisition.

Wanna post a pic of top of your gun so we can see what you have to work with ?

Will do when it gets here

Good luck shooting....

The piss will be taken out of ypu good and proper..

Why? I doubt a 9mm will boot that much

Na will be all good for that toby. Those things on trademe look good I will probably buy some for a play.

Using a scope for shotgun shooting e.g flying objects is wiite counter productive

If you can insert a series of washers inline the rest of the shotguns barrel would act as a suppressor making it a pleasant little toy

Had this in mind not sure how to work it. Also not sure if the bullets stay stable enough while going through the barrel though I may be able to cut in down to minimun legal length

All you need is a length of tubing that fits inside your 12ga bore as close to the bore it's self as practice
Then just washers that fit with a 11mm hole in them,

Then just washer/spacer/washer/spacer to your hearts content

If bullets don't stabilise (which I'm thinking is likely seeing as there is no rifeling) then you will just be limited in range

I'll when it gets here but I have a few ideas in mind. I reckon weldimg a steel rail would work I would just have to do bits at a time so it doesnt get hot
