The Truglo Universal Shotgun Rib Mount (brand part no. TG8954U1) lets a shooter add a red dot optic to a vented rib shotgun barrel without drilling or tapping the receiver, using a clamp-style 1-piece base that grips directly onto the rib itself. It’s built for shotguns that were never machined for a conventional scope base, which describes most turkey, waterfowl, and clays guns straight from the factory. Once clamped in place, the mount provides a low, secure platform for a compatible reflex-style red dot, letting a shooter keep both eyes open on fast-moving targets. It’s a straightforward, no-gunsmithing way to bring modern optics to a traditional shotgun.
