I am trying to find a set of tritium fibre-optic sights to replace the factory "rifle sights" on a Remington 870. So far, I haven't found the right manufacturer, or part number. I am hoping for a bolt-on replacement (no gunsmithing).

The sights I am looking for are direct replacements for the factory rifle sights. These factory sights are the same as the iron sights that are stock on the Remington 700.

Thanks in advance!

Do you mean tritium (the radioactive, always glowing) night sights such as Trijicons, or fiber optic (low light) sights?

Yes. I have seen fibre-optic sights (bright in daylight) that have tritium capsules _inside_ the fibre-optic. This provides the light to illuminate the sights in the dark.
