Description

Lyman Shotgun Bead #10 3101009

The LymanTM Shotgun Front Bead Sight #10 Press Fit - Lyman shotgun sights have large ivory-like beads that are easy to see in any light and can be installed in minutes. The number 10 sights (push fit) are for double-barrel or ribbed barrel weapons, whereas the number 10 sights (screw fit) are for non-ribbed single-barrel guns. There is no drill, tap, or reamer supplied.

 

Best Suited For

  • Shotgun owners needing a replacement front bead sight
  • Hunters requiring high-visibility aiming reference
  • Clay shooters (trap, skeet, sporting clays)
  • Gunsmiths or DIY users performing basic sight upgrades
  • Double-barrel and ribbed-barrel shotgun users

📌 The large ivory-style bead makes it easier to acquire quickly in varying light conditions.

When To Use It

  • When upgrading to a more visible front sight
  • During routine maintenance or refurbishment of a shotgun
  • When setting up a shotgun for field hunting or clay shooting
