How does that mount? Why would you say not too fun to shoot, the kick?

You can spend alot or little and get the same results if you know how to shoot

They both mount right to the rail. Yes, it kicks like a mule lol. Especially w 3 1/2" loads

Most Truglo sights are magnetic that snap tight onto the vent rib on the barrel.

3 1/2" buckshot is more fun out of the 835. I have dropped bucks at 75 yards with copper plated OOO's when we did the Morris County Park hunts. Adrenaline cancels out any kick!

I have multiple Turkey guns ranging from benellis to mossburgs and what I have discovered is if you like keeping your head a little bit higher go with a eotech if you like to bury your face to your gun like your shooting iron sights go with a vortex or browning!

Careful with the magnetic ones..I lost mine walking through sone brush.  I since switched to the adhesive ones and have any issues

I've been using an eotech 512 and a bushnell holosite for the past 35 years.

Just bought a Holosun hs510c and love it.

Circle/dot, just dot, or just circle options.

Manual or auto brightness feature. 

Shake awake feature  for different time lengths.

Solar panel to run site when sunny or take over completely if battery dies.

50,000 hours of battery life on dot only setting.

Very crisp and clear reticle as apposed to EoTech.

Hi Tech holographic, red dot laser guided sights on a turkey gun? Next thing you know you’ll be putting sights on your bow!!😂

They also make ones that snap onto the barrel at the front sight

I have a Vortex Venom on my 535 and highly recommend it.

I'm still using the TruGlo red dot that came with my 535 Turkey Thug with pistol Grip. Even use it deer hunting with Brenneke KO's thru an IC choke.

My son in law has a 535, gun shoots a great pattern. Very underrated gun.

Simple red dot that does the job. I made the switch to a red dot last season and I will never go back. It's a big advantage if you need to swing on a bird. Also a red dot you will not 'cover up the bird' like you would using a conventional bead. And don't ever have to worry about making sure your head is all the way down on the stock in the heat of the moment like you do with a bead.
