So purpose is HD for my wife and daughters, so eventually I’ll have 3 of these. Building one now because I nothing about it. Probably start with the short “firearm” version vs the “shotgun” version (I can’t recall the model names by maker) for the next two, it’ll be less expensive!
Step 1 is SBR, but that’s pretty easy, do paperwork and either have barrel cut or install 14” barrel.
Step 2 is sights. I like a ghost ring site, but who makes one and is getting the receiver d&t’d an issue? Any reason for an optic for this purpose?
Step 3 is forend, I like the idea of a light, any disadvantage? Good options?
Step 4 is grip and stock, and here I’m really lost. Pistol grip seems to make sense, as does a recoil reducing stock, but are their downsides? Better to just load/buy something a little softer shooting than magnum buckshot or slugs? Even birdshot at home/apt distances is gonna leave a mark.
or
SBR it and leave everything else including the bead sight alone?
