870 Barrel For Training That Used A Light Inside The Barrel?

I saw a barrel for an 870 Wingmaster, Factory parkerized, with a high front sight like a rifle sight (no rear sight) that had a hole drilled about 3/8" in front of the receiver. The guy told me that it originally held a light INSIDE the barrel as an aid in training.

Has anybody ever hear about this or know anything about it?

Many thanks in advance...... Duck

I have seen laser light shotgun shells but nothing like that. I would be very leery of barrels with holes drilled in them, especially near the chamber area, for training or anything else. Depending on the hole specifics they may have rendered that barrel kaput.
What could have happened... did.
