Yes my GM .54 1:70 barrel had a brass bead on the front sight but I didn't like it because the bead seemed too big or "blocky". I replaced it with a Marbles sight. They have different diameter bead sizes available. I also have a Marbles #45W with a 1/16" ivory bead on one of my MLs.

looks kinda like this...
