I didn't care for the stock M4 handguard but after getting it stippled I might remove the Briley from my other M4. Work was done by a member here "Nikotheasian". This guy is legit!

No offense taken, I just see how that stuff derails conversations and causes a quagmire of threads. Actually I just got my form 1 back for my 870 a couple of weeks ago. This week, I dropped the 12 5/8 inch barrel off at VangComp, to squeeze some performance out of it. I’m doing all that work on the 870 cause it’s way less expensive to fuck up, so I can figure out what I need to do to the M3 to make it run the way I want it to. My end result will be something like this… http://benellidefense.it/products/m3-145-door-breacher-grip-handle

So I have been doing more digging into the ATF Form 6 exemptions. I have previously thought I understood the terms. I've been under the understanding that a form 6 exemption is granted for Benelli M4 accessories and parts that are $100 and less, under point 4, sub section 3 which reads: “Minor components and parts for Category I(a) and I(b) firearms except barrels, cylinders, receivers (frames) or complete breech mechanisms, when the total value does not exceed $100 wholesale in any single transaction.” Under Category I(a) and I(b) firearms it states the following: a. Nonautomatic and semiautomatic firearms, to caliber .50 inclusive, combat shotguns, and shotguns with barrels less than 18 inches in length, and all components and parts for such firearms. I have always assumed that the Benelli M4 was considered a combat shotgun, however, with further digging I have learned that the ATF classification for the Benelli M4 is a "Sporting Shotgun" as it is imported into the USA with the standard stock and magazine limiter installed. So every Benelli M4 that is imported into USA and sold to civilians is a "sporting shotgun" and not a "Combat Shotgun". This lead me to read further down the Form 6 Exemptions list, point 6 which reads: Sporting shotgun parts other than firearm frames or receivers or barrels. [are exempt from Form 6] __________ So, what I take away from this is that all parts and accessories that are imported into the USA (from Canada for example) for the Benelli M4, which is a sporting shotgun, are exempt from filing a Form 6, regardless of the dollar value for the purchase (of the parts or accessories). Is there any reason to think that this line of thought is incorrect?
