I have been thinking about getting an 18" pump primarily for HD, but, of course, for some target shooting. As I am retiring I may try my hand at huniting, in which case it may be nice to have the option of slapping on a second barrel.
I have read about the pros and cons of ghost rings on an HD gun and do not want to discuss the subject as my mind is pretty well made up on that. My question is whether the same GRS HD gun can be used for fowling with a swapped barrrel. Would removing the sites from the receiver in order to mount a ribbed bead barrel be a PITA? Would that depend on how frequently I decide to turn it into a hunter (a couple vs. several times a year). I imagine if it turns out to be several times a year I will be picking up a dedicated fowling piece.
TIA
