    Trijicon sights for Rem 11-87 Police?

    Picked up a nice 11-87 Police at a really good price, complete impulse buy. Are Trijicon sights worth picking up for this gun?

    ETA: it’s a SBS with the 14” rifle sight barrel.

    I wouldn't do it but I don't care for any sights on a shotgun. I would invest in a high quality light first. Glow in the dark sights do nothing for target ID.

    I forgot to ask... How long does it take to get a SBS stamp these days?

    Based on using fiber optics on a rifle sighted 20", I would vote on just the front sight being really useful.

    I suspect(but have not tried) the XS low profile 870 set up would be neat, but would likely require a new barrel. I think this is an 18.5", but they also make it in a 14".

    Thanks for the replies. Since this gun is really only for range fun, I’m going resist my natural impulse to upgrade everything and leave it as is.

    I gave a police trade in that came with a fairly new set of Trijicon rifled sites. I’m not sure I would buy them myself but I do like them and I’m glad there on my 1187p

    I have a 18" barrel with rifle sights on one of my 870s and have night sights on it, plus we have night sights on all the 870s at work (14" RS barrels) as well. I like them and have put NS big dots on a couple of the bead sights barrels also. The night sights are a nice upgrade without changing the characteristics of the gun.
