Semiauto Shotgun Sights

[Steve M.]

Just ordered a Panzer Arms BP12 a few days ago from Palmetto and it comes with the same Tippman plastic sights that they give away on their AR15s, which I just really don't like. Picture attached.

Not really sure what type of sights to go with for something like this, I used to own a Benneli semi auto shotgun 15+ years ago, but otherwise have never used a semiauto shotgun, let alone a bullpup one that's more or less designed like a rifle.

Any recommendations on good sights for it? It has picatinny rails and most of the shotgun specific sights don't seem to be made for them.

Look for a set of buckhorn styles sights, might be your best bet.

I believe keltec makes a set

Have this one on my VR80.

Along with the plastic ones it came with.
I keep the center dot turned off unless shooting slugs.

Yeah I've been considering something like that, but man are those things pricey for the size of them.

Love the look of those, can't find anything with picatinny rails yet, but will keep looking.

I have used these in the past on my AR platform shotguns, I took out the open and precision rings in the rear sight.
