Rem 870 rifled barrel sight

Can a single weaver scope base bolt to 870 rifled barrel without drilling.
Would like to mount a reflective sight which uses a single standard weaver base.
Is there a weaver type base that is contoured to the 870 barrel and replaces the rear sight?

    Not enough room on a 870 barrel to be drilling and tapping holes for a base in it..
    A standard # 62 Weaver base can be fitted to the top of the receiver on a 870 with no problems..

    check out the Amega Ranges scout mounts. i think their websight is amegaranges.com. Sometimes you will see them listed on the auction side. Had one of their original mounts for a Mini 14, it worked well for a scout mount.
