I’m with Doge & share his perspective..particularly regarding Freedom Fighter Tactical..never have/will purchase a single part from that outfit. Several years ago I met & and spoke with the owner Todd of FFT, maybe he was having a bad day or whatever but the dude validated to me why so many of his M4 parts are outrageously over priced(long before Covid)..pretty sure he treats firearms manufacturers & relationships with them way better/another level vs. peasants like myself. I go my own direct-personal experience, regardless of a company’s/person’s reputation. Btw, HUGE advocate of RoofTop Defense..great products at fair prices & run by truly genuine people.

Speaking of Benelli QC, down at the machine shop finalizing details on this 6 position tube, and we have 2 collapsible buttstock a here. 2020 is left, 2021 is right. There is an obvious difference with QC on these, 2020 production tube opening has a chamfer, 2021 doesn’t. 2020 fits and locks better on the OEM tube and the 6 position, 2021 doesn’t lock in as good with OEM and with mine. 2021 is also WAY tighter on the tube (for both) Benelli seems to have switched manufacturers in 2021. And it isn’t better..

Are there any sources of wood furniture for a Benelli M3?

Jagerwerks has the BROS in stock for anyone looking to acquire one.

You don't necessarily need a coating on the inside since after high round count use the plunger would wear most of the inside. It should be lubricated no matter, even if you have nickel boron, NP3 or whatever coating. Nice to have it coated, but no impact to function.

Yes it had crossed my mind, but I’d like to keep things as realistic as I can. But ya it has crossed my mind to use shipping/handling/processing as a means to increase the price. With all this said, for this batch, I’m happy with the price I’m able to offer it at.

You have significantly more movement on that clone's claw than I've ever seen on an OEM Benelli claw. You can see where the claw is rotating in the channel and building that wear pattern. Hopefully the OEM parts fit tighter and prevent the movement you're seeing. It's possible this movement was causing your failures you've been experiencing.
