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)
Yes, the Winchester Model 1894s were factory-installed with various brands of sights over the years. The most common factory sight was the Winchester "semi-buckhorn" rear sight, but other options included a flat-top rear sight and a front bead sight. Additionally, some models were equipped with specialized sights for hunting or target shooting, depending on the configuration and year of production.
It is a "King Patent Triple Bead" sight. Bert H.

To remove the bead sight from a Winchester 1400, first ensure the shotgun is unloaded and safe to handle. Use a small punch or screwdriver to gently tap out the bead from the top of the barrel, taking care not to damage the surrounding area. If the bead is threaded, simply unscrew it counterclockwise. Once removed, you can replace it with a new bead or leave it off as desired.

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.
