The standard mod 70 had a Winchester bead front sight on a ramp base with a sight cover. The standard rear sight was a Winchester 22G open sight. The rifles chambered for .375 H&H Mag had the Lyman 6W folding rear sight. Model 70 National Match (chambered for .30-06 only) had a Lyman No. 77 front sight on a forged ramp sight base and a Lyman No. 48WH rear sight. All receivers were tapped and drilled for popular scope and iron sights. The Model 70 Super Grade had a Redfield full gold bead front sight on a ramp with sight cover and a Winchester 22G open rear sight. (with acknowledgement to The Gun Digest, seventh edition, 1953)

A beat is a musical tempo.The idiom "have a bead on"means to be aiming at, as the bead of a gun sight.
AnswerShotguns don't have sights. Just a bead at the front of the barrel. Incorrect. Some shotguns do just have a bead at the muzzle's end ... but, shotguns do indeed have aiming sights available. Typically, a shotgun designed to shoot rifled slugs will have conventional, adjustable iron sights with the rear sight mounted in the area above the trigger & and a blade sight ... sometimes with a colored line on the front sight. A typical name for shotgun sights is called Ghost Ring Sights. It came standard on my Mossberg 500 12 Ha. Shotgun.
The Marlin Model 3000 was the chain-store version of the Model 336. They added a gold trigger, gold bead sight and have no checkering.
Try Numrich Arms or Jack First -- On that Front Sight -- Not sure what you need to do, but the typical fix is to drill it 6x48 and install a new bead sight. sales@countrygunsmith.net
