$180 OBO or best offer shipped & insured - the pair I am selling has not been installed and are new open to offers ??

Just got another M4, this one is brand new unfired. It is amazing how the detent in the bolt, is a lot looser than my older M4 that is probably well over 15 years old. my older one is an aluminum trigger group, new one is polymer. The new OEM bolt handle is sloppy, due to the lack of spring force in the detent, old M4 the OEM handle is very solid in place with more force from the spring. Is this normal for newer M4s? Just thought it was an interesting development. I wanted an older one and newer one for R&D. I will take a look at it in more detail later, I'll try and loosen up the detent with some oil and see if that helps. An interesting observation regarding perhaps the lack of quality control present in new production models.

Is the stock new?

I have over 1000rds through my 2021 M1014, never had a failure, no QC issues, the chrome in the bore & gas ports looks new. The finish is perfect. Never had a problem with the poly trigger housing but I did swap it out pretty early on for an aluminum one. Positive locking of CH, straight sights, it’s been amazing. Im not saying there isn’t QC issues with new Benellis , just saying some of them are GTG.

Starting in 2008, I've owned about 10 Benelli m4s, purchased throughout the years. Some had greenish phosphate Some had very rough bores in the piston housing Some had crooked FSP (One, Benelli replaced on their dime). Some had anodizing that was chipping off on the inside of the receiver. Some had visible machine marks in the upper. The only "new" thing to me post covid are crooked recoil tubes. These need watching out for. Otherwise? All of these complaints fall within "variances Ive experienced."

Not all of them will have issues, definitely don’t give up on it before you even have it. I will say this, holding a brand spanking new M4 in your hand is an experience like no other. A used older one is great obviously, but a new one is a beautiful thing.

Polymer trigger guard is actually more impact resistant than the aluminum.

I have a 11715 and the polymer trigger guard is fine, it's plenty tough. I put an A&S on mine, not because the OEM was poly but for the recessed loading ramp. I am certain you're gonna love the gun, give it a shot (or 100).

Ugh. That makes me sick still not having taken possession of mine due to ATF. Over $2K spent and subpar quality ? yay

just seen this yesir! and thank you FloridaCreekIndian, pleasure working with you, hope you enjoy Brother!
