SPR 453 bead sight replacement

honkymatt · 11-19-2006, 07:15 PM

I just purchased a Remington SPR 453 and I would like to replace the bead sight. My understanding from the info on Remington's website is the bead sight is pressed and not tapped, so it cannot be unscrewed. 2 questions.

1. Is a pressed bead sight one that a person can typically replace on their own?

2. If It can be done, how so?

Thanks for any help.

I didn't like the bead on mine so I bought one of the tru glo magnetic attachments. It works great, but it can get bumped crooked kinda easily.
