870 Tactical Rear Sight Needed

[mh434]

I have an 870 Tactical with the permanently-mounted rear sight ramp (no screws - probably silver-soldered on?). I did manage to find a rear sight slider, but it has a male dovetail on top (for a sideways-slide sight), and for the life of me, I can't find a rear sight for it.

I did buy a set of Hi-Viz sights, and the front sight went in no problem - the rear sight, however, isn't relieved for a dovetail, and there's no way to locate it on top of my slider.

Does anyone have a sight that would fit the rear sight ramp, or know of a link to one somewhere? Either a sight to fit the slider, or one to fit the ramp? Or any other suggestions?

Right now, all I have is a front sight & an empty rear ramp....

Thanks in advance!

Try Numrich. They seem to have them in stock. I’ve had good luck getting stuff from them. Search for Remington 700 rear sight. I suspect you’ll want the “new style” with the slider and the sight.

+1 for Numrich they have these, I was just looking at rem 870 & 700 front and rear sights yesterday. You might try reaching out to Casey at Tacord, he might have something as well. If he does it’s out of Canada which will put it in your hands quicker, I have one but it’s going to be going on something.

Western Gun Parts might have them as well

You nailed it, Butcherbill! Casey was great - got back to me right away, had exactly what I need at a great price, and it's already shipped!

Good to hear, it’s a nice sight set up on a shotgun by the way.
