bicykillgaz Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Hi Just picked up a webley & scott bolt action .410 for my wife to use. Only thing is the front bead has been attacked with a hammer or something and is virtually non existent now, does anyone know if they are threaded and if so how easy would it be to get a replacement?

aga man Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 hi gary, did chambers sort you out with a sight bead for the 410? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicykillgaz Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 hi gary, did chambers sort you out with a sight bead for the 410? I was a little disappointed to be honest I emailed them to find out what size I needed and they couldn't tell me I got a reply saying they stocked beads but I would need to tell them what size I wanted, I emailed webley directly and they couldn't tell me but gave me chambers email and said they should be able to help me(lol!) So now I'm back to where I started, thank you though for the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshwarrior Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 It will either be a 2.6 mm threaded bead or a 3 mm I beleive. Most old style (or good) gunshops hold a selection if you remove the old one and take it or the gun in they will check with you and sell you the right one for a couple of £ at the most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bicykillgaz Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 i need to take it in now anyway as the old one sheared off when i tried to get it off, so it need tapping and a new bead bit beyong my capabilities unfortunately. i should have just done it to begin with.

Irrelevent anyway now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
