#Remove the rail from O/U shotguns

Just a minor thing that has kinda bugged me. The sight rail on the O/U shotguns. I don't really care for how it looks especially when aiming, also it doesn't even hold the sight if you decide to use it. In my mind the gun would look a lot nicer and more realistic without it. Am I alone with this? 😅

Someone please do this, it just makes the gun harder to use for bird hunting now

Makes the surroundings hard to see especially for a lower level that has the blur on the sides

#

please keep the tritium front bead tho, with the rail gone it'd be much more helpful

that rail is the only reason I don’t use the over under

#

it makes it harder to aim and it looks awful

Yes. But you see the Pump action 12 gauge removes the rail when the scope is unequipped. Same with M1 Garand. So i dont understand whats so different with O/U

the only shotguns that really have rear sights irl are tactical shotguns, rifled slug shotguns, and turkey shotguns

I’m just saying for shotguns in general

#

I’m pretty sure there’s only one tactical over under out there

#

Stoeger's? It's the only one i know

rotund drift
#

yeah

this is how the 12 O/U shotgun should look when you ads (the second picture should be the new Hi-viz tritium sight for the O/U shotgun. a red/green dot put on the iron sight grain)

man I wish I had an over under

So that rail isn't actually used for the red dot for some reason

I was about to make this post. O/U shotguns are so elegant looking and that stupid scope rail really ruins it. I've been using the SxS shotguns from the goose chase dlc instead, but I really want to use the gamekeeper shotgun when upland hunting. Not having the open sights on this shotgun is just silly at this point. Come on EW.

sorry but this is really needed

The rail disturbs me a lot and makes fatal bird and duck hunting for me.

i own an over and under and i would love to use it in game but the scope rail just ruins the gun.

Can't be that much work to take the rail off, it's been done with more complicated weapons

The base sight is only usable with slugs at close range. If you wanna try to hit anything moving good luck. We definitely need to get rid of that rail

We should probably bring this up on stream tbh. It’s such a simple change.

#

So weird too, why would a shotgun actually need a rear sight? All it does is get in the way

Okay, how about the pump shotgun with actual sights rather than the over under with an obnoxious rail for slug hunting

#

Or a combat style with a rear peep sight and front sight post. Would look similar to the 303

What I'm saying is if someone actually put in the work ti unlock the slugs and scope am they'd probably be using the pump action. It makes no sense to leave the scope rail on the over under when there's no scope there and it's the only weapon done that way. I know it was for buckshot but a bead sight still makes way more sense considering how close you have to be with the buckshot to be effective.

I hate this, it completely ruins it
