I personally like a raised rib with two(2) beads on a short barrel. The rib promotes eye alignment and the beads give you a rudimentary sight.. If he has plans to hunt deer or turkey,, rifle sights might be better..
There are a couple reasons to put a breaching gizmo on your brothers shotgun
1)WOW factor,, it will impress the ladies,, and his buds
2)Medical Insurance,, a breacher is not a flash hider not is it a muzzle brake,, it's there to dissipate some of the energy that comes out the business end,, hopefully so it doesn't blow back into the shooters face & body,, when the device is placed against a hard surface..
3)Night Illumination Device,, Any time you put a device on the end of a shortened barrel, other than a flash hider, that device will tend to spread the un-burnt power into a 100,000 watt lighting device,, effectively blinding both the shooter & shoootee,, ego: promotes poor SA.. (c the 3rd pic in my album,, AMD-65 w/ 12.5" barrel, 7.62x39, at dusk,, 3 ft ball of fire) and if your using NV,, a supper wow,, eh??
4)Just cause he wants one,, nuff said..
