Anyone know where to get one of these? I'd like to grab one for my 870 but nobody seems to have them in stock.
 
Actually looks like SFRC has them. Went to place an order, but there's no way I'm paying $20 for shipping of such a tiny item that likely weighs about a gram.

Anyone else have these sights in stock?

I bought one from Tac Ord and the other from Brownells.

Shipping is high for such a small item, so I bought extra stuff to "justify" the shipping cost. :)

Lol Yes, that's usually my problem as well, but I'm not really interested in doing that this time.

You'll want the plain barrel version, most likely:

Plain Barrel Big Dot Tritium

Would the international shipping not be just as expensive, if not more?

It sucks because I live a few minutes from the WA border and often have items shipped to a box down there so I can just go pick them up, but sights are ITAR controlled if I'm not mistaken.

At the time I bought mine, I ordered a few other things, so shipping wasn't horrible (bundled), and absolutely no-one in Canuckistan had them in stock, or even listed but "out of stock" - ergo, I was stuck paying the freight. Also, the Canadian Peso was on par, so it wasn't that bad.

As for ITAR... Yes and no, depending on who you talk to, the phase of the moon, etc. etc. Optics, definitely yes. Iron sights (which this qualifies as), probably not?!?!? Maybe? Who knows, ITAR is a confusing mess, and you'll get a different answer from the same dealer, depending on the day, on a lot of things. The only American retailer that consistently has a clue, and has people specifically educated on the subject, is Numrich, but unfortunately they don't carry XS products.
 
I decided I'd rather have the Meprolight Tru-Dot 34045. Better design and isn't glued on, but can't find anywhere that has this one in stock either.

Anyone know where to get one?
