turbo33 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Just a bit of advice. I lost mine out of a Silver Pigeon. Thinking it was a simple fix, I bought one at 2.6mm off fleebay. Didn't fit, so went round the gunsmiths. They all had beads in stock, but nothing in the correct thread. They each told me that Beretta have their own thread. I got one direct from GMK. It would be easy to wind in the wrong one and snap it off in there. Just passing on info to save you a potential problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shropshire_Lad Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Thank you turbo33, just the advice I was after ;-) would rather pay double for one that fits than screw up a new gun. atvb Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlistairB Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 I lost mine at Riseley, went to the local gun shop, they let me go thorugh all of theirs till I found one that fitted and I liked - £0.00! For an SP5, it was 2.6mm, standard thread. AB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonmick Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 I have taken all my beads off and replaced them with easyhit strips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For an SP5, it was 2.6mm, standard thread. AB It may be the SP5 is different, mine is an SP1 like Pauls. I went through loads, and whilst they were very close, the thread on the Beretta is fractionally finer. Yes you could wind them in, but it wasn't right. The lad next door had lost his from his Bettinsoli, and the ones I had picked up to try were a perfect fit in his. Thank you turbo33, just the advice I was after ;-) would rather pay double for one that fits than screw up a new gun. atvb Paul. No probs Paul. They sent one to me FOC, but even if its a tenner, like you I'd rather get the right one. As one gunsmith pointed out, if the thread on the barrel gets damaged, being so shallow, it could never be recut and would be an araldite job :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
