Smart Upgrade
Nice balance of light intensity. Bright enough to see in the dark but not so bright it shines back and illuminates the shooter. Very usable blue light. Front sight brighter, round. Rear sights slightly less bright and easily distinguishable by shape and intensity from the front sight. Good design. My 870, manufactured in 1979, had a rifle sight (from a rifle not a shotgun) rear sight base, with dovetail. A mistake from the factory. I managed to get a correct base from Amazon which properly mated the Meprolight rear sight to my shotgun. Meprolight made their rear sight correctly. You may have a dovetailed base like I did. Don't blame Meprolight and don't pay a gunsmith to fix it. Get the right base. Much cheaper. Makes the shotgun correct, and looks good.The front sight took some work to slide into the dovetail. I had a little triangular file and took off a tiny amount of metal, and then the sight slid in with a drift and hammer. Very nice. Looks original. Works at night.

Not as described, but not bad
I was looking for a 3 dot sight that would be easy to use from dawn to dusk. The photo of product is misleading and daytime use there is little, if any difference between the stock sights that came on my 11-87. If I was rocking nightvision in Iraq this would be an excellent choice. They do glow but the camera intensified the brightness and they would pop in a set of NVGs.Will throw these on my gun for deer season but will more than likely switch them out for a set of Ameriglow sights if I can find them.Edit: have them on my 11-87 and they are a little better then factory. Was able to shoot 3" groups @ 75 yards. Dots do help in daylight so upgraded to 3 stars.

The no return policy is just one of the issues.
This night sight stated it was for the Remington 870, yet when we received it and took it to a gun shop to be properly installed, they said it can't be and wasn't made for our Remington 870. Now I'm stuck eating nearly $100 because they don't allow returns. What a bunch of BS and very frustrating.

Don’t buy
This is NOT RETURNABLE!!!!!!! This should be written clearly and obviously on the listing. If you miss the fine print of what type of gun it can be used on you are out close to $100. I wouldn’t buy this online- go to the store. Lesson learned
