I recently broke the front bead on my SX2. What happened was the white plastic popped off the steel stud that it is attached to and I can't find it. Where can I get a direct replacement? If not a direct replacement what would you suggest I switch to? This is my everything shotgun from trap shooting to turkey hunting so please keep that in mind when suggesting a bead.

Thank you in advance for your time,
Brad

Here are 5 pages of sights. I don't know off hand what the factory thread size is, but if you see one you like, a gunsmith can, or should be able to, make the hole match.

Thank you Westpac. I looked through Brownells. I even opened their exploded view trying to get a direct replacement. I'm almost certain that the screw size is M3 X .5 its just that I liked the original equipment so much that I'd just as soon find one and put it in. If I can't find the original equipment then I'll have to use a resource like Brownells, Midway, or what have you.

Did you contact Winchester?

Gun Parts Corps has the old style bead for guns with ribs that uses a rear screw to hold the rib in place rather than the bead itself.
