Benelli Front Sight

[BIRD DOG]

I am looking for a replacement sight for my front sight - the old one is damaged - can I take it off - screw it out - and replace it with one that you guys recommend - if so - recommend a good one and the web site to purchase it? Thanks - Super Black Eagle

Yes it will screw out. I think Tru Glo makes a replacement if I remember correctly. My front sight was damaged on my M2 when I got it, and the guy at the gunshop put a replacement on it for me, so I can't remeember for sure.

Rammer - what size screw -thread?

[Rammer]

Bird Dog - I'm not sure, I'll do some checking and see if I can come up with it for ya.

Thank you!

Bird Dog - I think this may actually be the sight the gunshop installed right here. It comes with 3 different shanks for different guns.

I also had a damaged sight on my SBE 1. Mine broke off even with the rib. I emailed Benelli and the size of the thread was in millimetes. I don't remeber the exact size, this was a few years ago. I ended up putting an Easy Hit stick on on the rib. Since then I have put a truglo red dot on and still have the Easy Hit on there for back up. I use this gun only for turkey hunting and use 3 1/2 inch shells and the sight has never come loose.
