needed a basic manual for my M1014,the gun didn't come with one because its a no box, no papers,no manual gun shop deal,been looking and looking,,finally a recent ebay find, $12.75 w/shipping in mint original condition,its not a copy,love it,gonna read the print off it.

this is so strange to me,I remember back in the summer of 02 when the very first M1014s where offered,didn't know if any other type of Benelli m4s where gonna be built or not,,so I purchased one,,had to beg ,borrow and steal the money,we had to do all kind of things to get them where we wanted them,,there definetly where no special services or aftermarket products,,it was here that we helped each other out,the serial # range is of intrest,since there limited editions,wow,so much has happened since 02,,pretty cool,,ps: I have a ton of floppy discs from back in the day of my first M1014 for reference,,its funny to view them today.

you show me yours,Ill show you mine.Standard stock found, bought, and installed. Thank you PCKLST! -
all these new aftermarket parts and services,this shows how bad I've been out of the m4 loop,too long,,thank you sir.Limbsaver 10403 on a pistol grip oem m4 civilian 11707 is my preferred setup. This includes c stock, urbino, and field, all of which I've tried. -
talkin about M1014 stocks,cool,I like the regular kind as shown,past, present and future,it feels so natural when I pull it up to my shoulder,plus I can have the sling underneath,as far as recoil management,for now I have an old limb saver tacked on,but it works till I get more dough,maybe a grind to fit limbsaver, the pic on the left is of my first M1014 circa 03-09 era,the one on the right is very recent 12/16,great topic, thankyou

I will look around also.

I've owned several Benelli's over the years, and I sold them randomly as they didn't TRULY offer me what I was after. I wanted to be able to use an electronic sight on them (RDS), and I wanted to be able to do so naturally. Mounting the sight on the rail made the cheek-weld into a chin-weld. It was pretty much a non-starter except as a bungled "add on". Not a sleek, effective, muscle-memory inducing thing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The second and more important thing I demand on ALL my firearms, is a LIGHT. The light needs to be permanently attached (not non-removable, but rather, not necessary to remove...ever), and to not impede either the cleaning, or the function, of the firearm in any way. Mag-tube light mounts were a no-go obviously. Barrel mount light mounts are a terrible idea on any weapon. Much less the thin-walled barrel of an M4. Then AVA tactical came out with their first generation mounts, and I was ecstatic. Early adopter. Well, it touched the barrel, and I was not a fan. This has since been remedied in the Gen 2 mounts, and while I love AVA tactical, I have gone with the IWC mount. I always maintained that the barrel hanger was the end-all, be-all of a place to mount a WML on this shotgun, and IWC nailed it. AVA is a great company and makes a great product, that's just my personal choice. What I ended up with. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Until the latest AVA and IWC offerings, the Benelli M4 always struck me as a "super fun toy". I don't take it serious for home defense unless I can use it at night. So here I am, buying another Benelli M4, and outfitting it the way I always wanted to. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Carriercomp Ti tube -Benelli METAL trigger group (sadly, not offered on OEM guns anymore, I had to buy mine from Numrich -Benelli USMC issue barrel (fixed MOD choke, current production with latest barrel extension) -IWC Scout mount and 300 lumen Mini-scout -HSP sling -Scalarworks T2 mount and T2 (when released) This will give me a weapon that is LIGHTER than an OEM out of the box Benelli M4, yet has a weapon-light AND a combat proven optic, allows use of irons if the RDS goes down, and is not cludgy (Surefire fore-end...) or non-ergonomic. I have decided to leave the bolt-handle, and shell-stop release as OEM. Why? Because Benelli did a TON of testing regarding those components, and we know for a fact how the gun runs with the OEM gear. I'm not going to go mucking with it unless/until Kip drops the Ti/A2 handles again, if he does, and only those because they are almost identical in weight to OEM...but even those are more likely to be removed accidentally from the BCG than the OEM bolt-charging handle... Anyway, here is where my project stacks up so far... More on the way. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SERIOUSLY!? There is no way to space these paragraphs!?
