Gold bead replacement on a 12ga barrel???
« on: October 29, 2009, 05:20:32 PM »
I am wondering how easy/difficult it would be to replace the gold bead on my 12ga Survivor barrel?  When I bought the gun, used, the gold bead was pretty beat up with the top almost flat.  The only benefit was that it shot to point of aim with Winchester slugs at 35 yards like that! LOL! 

Thanks for any/all input!

YUP its easy. Many gun shops will have them but you will generally need to ask for them..
