SuperNova Red Dot Sights Options

[tyson129]

Can anyone send me a link or list off all of the available red dot sights for the SuperNova? It would be greatly appreciated because all I can find is the Burris Speed Bead Red Dot Sight. I want options, they have to be out there...I hope. Looking for an inexpensive one because I already have a red dot sight on my 870 but I want to put one on my SuperNova (temporarily) for my upcoming black bear hunt just to get a big game animal under its belt. Thanks in advance.

Any red dot scope will work, as long as you have a way to mount it to the gun.

Thanks Trapshooter1, Do you know what mounts are best or have any links to ones that you reccomend for the SuperNova?

That looks like a winner. If your SuperNova is not drilled and tapped already, you will need to have it done. Probably less than $50. That is the way to go! No bulky and unsightly side saddle to deal with. Good luck.

I would prefer to have it drilled and tapped (which means have the smith drill wholes and put threads in them) and then attach a rail to the gun with screws. You can get the rails pretty much anywhere you can find gun stuff. Or you can use a saddle mount:

Thanks guys for both of your help. I've been looking all over for a saddle mount, thanks Trapshooter1.

Are you going with the saddle mount or the drilled and tapped base?

I dont know yet, last night I came across these:

Any one used them before? I already have a red dot on my 870 that is dead on at about 85 yards, so its a hard decision to invest about $150 when I could get this setup for about $50. The bear will be at about 25-30 yards...Any opinions?

Plus I believe they can be put on and taken off really quick...that way my bird/clay gun wont get such a makeover...
