Just had a hilarious vision of a big ol' kitchen match stick, red sulfur head up. stuffed in place of a front bead! Gotta figure Elmer Fudd was the shooter.

Still laughing. No disrespect intended to your buddy, I'm betting he cut the match head off and used it in place of the front bead. My vision was the whole match!

Check with Brownells or Numrich for a replacement. Ace hardware for the matches.

The front bead is missing on all of the Parkers I shoot. You get use to the hole.
