Installation Tips
Unload & Inspect: Verify the shotgun is unloaded; remove ammo from the area.
Remove Factory Bead: Use the correct hollow-ground driver or bead tool; protect the finish.
Check Threads: Confirm bead thread size and depth on the pedestal; clean with alcohol to remove oil and debris.
Install New Bead: Apply a tiny drop of non-permanent thread locker and snug the sight—do not overtighten.
Confirm Zero: Pattern your shotgun with your chosen load to verify point of impact aligns with your new sight picture.
Care & Maintenance
Wipe Clean: Keep the dot free of mud, dust, and oil for maximum brightness.
Check Tightness: Inspect after heavy recoil sessions to ensure the bead remains secure.
Solvent Safe: Standard shotgun cleaners are typically fine; avoid harsh abrasives on the dot face.
