It doesn't just screw in without modifications

The screw below is bigger than the hole on my Mossberg 88. But the wiring gives the impression that you can just unscrew the old one and screw in the new one. You can not! The back of the box mentions several screws with different size threads for different manufacturers of the shotgun, but the product comes as a single unit and there is no way to change the screws to the size you want. Dissatisfied! Nothing mentioned that I would have to enlarge the threaded hole on my shotgun and have yet toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • There are nuances

The scope itself wasn't bad, but it comes with very fine threads.

The scope itself is not bad, but it comes with very small threaded parts that will fit any shotgun modification. There just aren't enough threads to keep them. I moved the shotgun muzzle down behind the door, and that was enough to rip the strings off the base of the scope. I even tried threading the barrel and found a new screw to hold both. After sitting on it, red elbowed for six hours, it was still loose enough to remove with fingers, and I would even say it just came loose, didn't evenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

It won't install without super glue to keep it straight!

Cannot be attached without super glue to keep it straight. There is no guarantee that it will match the barrel when tightened. I have tried removing and replacing this scope several times, but there is no way to properly align the scope with the barrel. The best I could do was tighten it to the very last turn of the screw and then back it out until it was exactly in line with the barrel. Then I took the super glue and stuck it between the scope and the barrel and held it until the glue dried. I

Cons
  • Problem

Bigger and brighter than TruGlo StarBright

In contrast, the StarBright is tiny, and because it's half the length, it doesn't collect much light. I was concerned that the thick bead would sit higher than the original ivory front bead, but that's not a problem. Fat Bead is bright but not obtrusive. Unlike other brands that have the fiberglass tube protruding from the front and back of the mount, the TruGlo's metal cover should protect the plastic fiberglass tube from scratching or tarnishing while being handled or stored in a case.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Functionality

Nice big shackle with unusual thread size

This shackle was the perfect match for my client's 10 gauge O/U barrels (an unusual import shotgun) but the 5-40 thread size wasn't enough . Surprise. I don't recall this being mentioned anywhere in the product description, but I probably overlooked it. Anyway, on the back of the box are listed the different brands of weapons and the corresponding size of the thread in which Trueglo inserts the bead. I simply drilled and tapped a new hole just behind the original on the barrel vent rod andโ€ฆ

Would recommend

This scope was really impressive for the money. For $20 you could buy a high contrast pearl. The circular contrast of fibers with directional light makes it popular. I shoot cymbals and have several different brands and this bead would look great on any. As other reviewers have said, don't expect this thing to be gargantuan. It appears compact due to the interlaced fiber colors where a solid bead would take up all the space. The strange thing for me was that the ground is not completely levelโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Something different

Bright w/ Quick Acquisition

I don't know why other reviews are so low Mounted on a FedArm SS12, breakable breech, 12ga single shot, smooth barrel. It takes a little patience and a little skill. I found the correct pin, screwed the top end into the scope and screwed the pin into the threaded hole on the barrel. It didn't fit. It was almost 90 degrees. Don't worry, loosen the pin in the barrel and tighten it again. This moved the visor further forward and after a few iterations it became taut and straightened. I readโ€ฆ
