Advanced Technology Shotforce Deluxe Heat Shield with Ghost Ring Sights - Fits 12/16/20 Gauge & .410 Bore Shotguns, Non-Vent Rib, Black

The Advanced Technology Shotforce Deluxe Heat Shield with Ghost Ring Sights is a serious upgrade for 12, 16, 20 gauge, and .410 bore pump shotguns running non-vent rib barrels. If you shoot shotgun regularly—whether hunting, training, or running drills—barrel heat becomes a real issue fast. This forged steel heat shield doesn't just protect your hand from painful burns; it also gives you a self-centering rear ghost ring sight with a .122" inside diameter aperture designed for quick, instinctive target acquisition. That large opening means you're not hunting for your sight picture under pressure.

The engineering here is straightforward and effective. Elongated cooling slots along the shield maximize heat dissipation while the formed steel construction provides a secure, textured gripping surface that won't slip even when your hands are wet or gloved. Up front, the blade sight includes side guards to protect the sight itself and keep it from catching on gear or brush. The whole package is finished in black, matching modern shotgun aesthetics and reducing glint.

Installation requires fitting the heat shield to your barrel—ATI recommends having a gunsmith handle this if you're not comfortable with the work. It's not complicated, but it does need to be done right. One important note: the Shotforce Deluxe is not compatible with Mossberg Mariner or Remington Marine Coat shotguns.
