+1 on this. The self defense SG is basically at most a 1 - 15 yd weapon, where even at 15 yds you're pushing the limits of the patterning to keep all pellets on target. At this range, the target should be significantly bigger than the front sight, hence no need for any optics.

I would say, use that money for a one day SG class instead. The pump SG is not the "gimme" to operate some think it is.
