What exactly do I have to get to mount the FF site on a Mossberg 500? I really would rather not use the picatinny base and read the best is use a 336 base, which keeps the site lower to the barrel.I assume this Is this a FF adapter base made for the 336 not a Weaver type base used to mount a regular scope? ONLY thing that Is that the picture of that 336 adapter looks like it only has 3 holes in it,assuming 2 would be for the site to base and that leaves only one to mount the base to the gun. The picture may not have been the actual adapter base for the 336. It is pretty clear if u use the picatinny rail but im confused if you go with the 336 method. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Call SumToy Chokes, and get William to send you one of his mounts. It has 2 holes for screws to screw into the receiver, and 2 holes for the FF.

Or have a gunsmith drill and tap and mount the 336 base. Usually they can us one of the existing threaded holes on the receiver and will only have to drill and tap one hole.

The Sumtoy mount has a radius which fits the curves of the receiver almost the full width of the base. The 336 is flat with no contour and has contact on just a hair over .25" width along the length of the base that is in contact with the 500's receiver.
