Does anyone have a spare front bead for a shotgun lying around? The one on my Benelli Nova went missing.

I’m pretty sure you can buy replacement beads at Walmart that fit over the ribs I don’t think they cost very much at all.

I have the OEM tiny fiber optic bead on my super 90. However, it was getting hard to see at my age, and I upgraded to a magnetic Hi-Viz bead. It's about 2" long and to your point snaps securely over the rib and is magnetic as well for extra security. I have it butted against my factory bead and never had any issues in probably 10 years. If I recall it came with 3 or 4 different colored inserts. I've stuck with the orange/red as it works best for my eyes in all conditions.

That’s the product I was talking about.
