What is the BROWNELLS - SHOTGUN SIGHT INSTALLERS?
The 'clean' installation of aluminum or brass shotgun sights has always been one of the bug-a-boos of the gunsmithing profession. The Shotgun Sight Installer exactly fills the need for a truly precision instrument with which to install a shotgun bead without a mark - satisfying even the most particular gun man. The holding jaws are internally ground and lapped to give maximum holding surface on the globe of the sight without marring or damaging the metal. Priced at a level any gunsmith can afford, yet will give a lifetime of service.

SPECS: Available in aluminum or steel.

NOTE: The Three Pack Set contains one of each size. Three sizes: Lg. .175'; Med. .130'; or Sm. .067'.

Bead sight install tools
Never was able to get a set until now to install beads on shotguns and now glad i have a set. Makes installing beads simple.

Very nice.

This is the one to get!
the best product to use when replacing a bead. The jaws are tight from the manufacture and a small screwdriver is all that's needed to open them up a bit. You get a first class finish with this set of tools.

No fuss, No cuss tool!
When I got these I immediately tried them, and with excellant results. They are quite heavy duty, being steel, but are well made and simple to use. After installing one of each of the common bead sizes I decided they are far superior to the forceps I used to use, requiring little or no touch up. The only drawback is they are heavy, but should outlast me!
