nice gun... I'm still trying to decide if I want to put a front sight on mine or not... it's obviously a belly gun, so it shouldn't "need" a front sight, but I have a couple screw in brass beads... I might have to put one on yet anyway ???

"Does that Sightmark hold up to the 454 recoil?"

JN01, I have put 300 rounds of 340 grain WLN at 1,000 to 1,250 fps through it with the Sightmark in place, plus some other lighter target loads. No problems so far.
