Will norinco grizzly/hp9s ever be on sites again?

Was the 12.5" Grizzly Mag ever available with just a bead sight barrel? Ideally I'd like just that but it looks like the 12.5" Mag is only available with the ghost ring sights, where-as the pump was available with both. I just don't like the giant front blade sight. I'm leaning on picking up a 18.5" Mag with bead sight and then just keeping my eye out for a shorter bead sight barrel, assuming I can find one for ~$140 I'd be at the same price point as getting a 12.5" with the ghost ring but have a 18.5" barrel on hand as well.

The bead sights shoot high and the rifle ghost ring sights are bang on. If you don’t like the ghost rings, you probably should put a raised sight of some sort on the bead ...... maybe a big dot or something? This is why you see taller front posts or rails plus a bead on most of the Turkish short shotties. The factory Remington sights have a pedestal on them as well actually.
