XS big dot on CanadaAmmo 12.5" 870 barrel?

[freddyfour]

I will second that. Just had a CanAm 12.5" barrel show up in the mail this morning and the bead is definitely too low as it sits.

Does anyone know if Brownells will ship it up here? Guess I better email them and find out...

100% yes, I ordered one from them about a month ago

I put one on my 12.5'' - love it.

Ordered it from Brownells - and epoxied it on with JB weld - its rock solid, no worries about it flying off.

I believe Brownells has info on which size bead(s?) it will epoxy over - make sure you order one in the right size, as the brass bead that was on that 12.5'' barrel was too big.

Is your bead on straight? I was looking at one and it was off axis to the bore and the barrel ring.

Nope. It sits slightly off to the left, maybe 0.015"-0.020" off dead center. Not bad enough to really affect accuracy, but enough to be noticeable if you look closely.

Awesome, I got a reply from them that said the same thing.

Where did you get the front sling attachment? Thanks for the tip on the bead diameter, I will be sure to measure it before ordering.

It came from Brownells - and works very well.

I'm trying to build a similar sling, well not 3 point but the wrap around the stock part. Can you please post some more detailed pictures of the straps and hardware in the stock part?

Thanks

I'm away from home, working in camp at the moment - so don't have access to the gun - but I do have this photo in my bucket:

The butt -stock adapter is the one that One shot Tactical sells for the VCAS sling on that shotty. I believe its this one -
