Truglo Long Bead, Tru Tg-947brm Longbead Metal 3-56 Red DEMO/USED

The Truglo Long Bead metal front sight is a fiber optic replacement sight designed for shotgunners who want a fast, reliable aiming reference without batteries or electronic components. This demo/used unit fits Ruger and Winchester pump and semi-automatic shotguns, including the 1200, 1300, 1400, and Super X2 models. The bright red fiber optic element gathers ambient light to produce a glowing sight picture that's easy to acquire in low-light hunting conditions and across varied shooting scenarios, from turkey season through clay shooting.

Built from durable metal construction, the Truglo Long Bead maintains zero and withstands the recoil and weather exposure that shotgun hunting demands. The 3-56 thread specification ensures proper fit on compatible Ruger and Winchester platforms. Because this is a demo or previously used unit, you're getting a functional sight at a lower entry point—ideal if you're upgrading an older shotgun or building a backup gun without premium pricing.

If you're running a dedicated shotgun for upland game, waterfowl, or clays, and your current factory sight is worn or obscured, the Truglo Long Bead is a straightforward swap that restores fast target pickup. Unlike aftermarket optics that add weight and complexity, fiber optic beads keep your shotgun handling light and responsive while delivering the visibility you need when the shot matters.
