I am stepping up to an Invictus V and my previous Guerini I had replaced my front bead with a mid bead sized bead (about .067” in diameter) and would like to do the same with my new gun. I remember previously I had gotten the beads off of brownells but have since been unable to find a mid bead in a 3mmx.05 thread pattern. Does anyone have a lead or an idea of where I could find one that would fit? Thanks.

VTCTGarrett - At some point about two years ago, I completely removed all beads from my guns. I haven't missed or needed them at all. To have them means you may (will!) look at them while shooting, and that is always bad. I still fight "measuring" like a crack addict fights using.

Measuring--sigh. Taking off the beads is a great idea. But if I could only find some "invisi-noleum" to coat the barrels with. MAJ

oinodam- I will probably go this route if I cannot find a small mid bead sized bead to replace the snow globe at the end of the barrel. Incredibly happy with the gun and the way it handles, however the bead proved to be a big distraction. It may be the no bead life for me!
