Titanium cerakote on the metal? I’m gonna try an RD on at least one gun again, as the OS setup it has don’t have quite enough elevation adjustment without more parts/work. It’ll just be an RD that hasn’t let me down on other stuff. Equipment messing up a gimme on a bird is hugely frustrating. The nut behind the trigger is always a known issue. FWIW: I’ve always ‘believed’ the 870 20ga receiver was too thin at the rear for good tap/screw depth? If not, and someone would make a solid mount for the curve/drop at the rear, you could likely get a dot very low to the rib/receiver. Right now, if I decide to RD my 870 20, it’ll probably get a rib mount. OTOH, my turkey guns are turkey guns ONLY, and my eye just needs to be where it needs to be to kill turkeys….not shoot quail. It doesn’t matter if that’s down on the rib or using a lower cheek weld to get behind a dot or sights that sit higher. It’s rifle shooting, not shotgunning.

There is plenty of meat at the rear of a 20 ga 870 receiver. The problem is when using a factory 4 screw base and the holes that are roughly forward of the ejection port. There's a shoulder in there the barrel extension butts againts and the receiver is really thin there.
There are two types of gun enthusiasts ... Those who have been F#CKED by PTG and those who will be!

What color is your metal, titanium? The color, I believe, is called "patriot brown" but it's more green than brown in my opinion.
