Yes, I run a shotgun right-handed, a carbine left-handed, a bolt gun right-handed, and shoot a pistol equally poorly with either hand.

On the XS bead...
I haven't yet bought one. I'm kind of stuck here in my decision, between either a) installing the XS bead or b) spending ~$215 to buy the DEA barrel with what are basically XS Big Dots installed.
The gun will see limited slug use, but since I'm up in the mountains now bears are a possibility. Primary use is launching buckshot at 5-10 yards. Given those parameters, is it worth the extra $140 to gain a rear sight?
For those of you using epoxy to attach tritium sights, what are your plans for when he tritium starts to go dim? Can you get these off easily with acetone?

I was into 10mm Auto before it sold out and went mainstream, but these days I'm here for the revolver and epidemiology information.
For me, yes. I have both the XS big dot epoxied on one of my 870's and one with the XS 870 barrel. I hit far more consistently with with both slugs and Fed. FC buck with the XS rifle sights on the barrel. FC buck and Brenneke Home Defense tactical shoot to the same POA at 15-25 yards with the XS 870 barrel. The Big Dot is better than just a bead on pedestal, and it glows, but I prefer the actual sights. My light on the fore end lights up the front sight, so the glow in the dark feature is not as important for me. I live in the mountains too, and it gets dark at night so a light is critical.
