If its legal in CA i am sure its legal in CO. Andy I know for a fact its legal to add the 4 shot ext in CA to the M1s90.

I agree with Agent smith I was given a +2 mag extension for my M1 and was told it was legal to install now. This coming from a multiple 3gun champ i am guessing he knows CA law because he lives here. He wouldnt risk his reputation if it was unlawfull for me to install it. infact i am installing it after i typle this Andy [ 11-07-2004, 02:20 PM: Message edited by: AndyinSoCAL ]

I bought my last benelli! Andy I think you got your response ealier in the thread, benelli has made a choice and its not to help M1014 owners.

It was 3" Win high velocity 11/8oz ... thats all i can recall. Oh yeah it was steel shot. This was the closest i could find at the gun shop to your recomentation in your post. I didnt have any problems with them at all, they worked perfectly. I went to the desert with friends, we set up our own targets. We were mainly there to shoot our M1s and pistols, but i had to fire my benelli Andy [ 11-01-2004, 10:23 PM: Message edited by: AndyinSoCAL ]

Took the M1s90 out a few days ago for the first time. boy thats a lot of fun, my first shotgun and i am hooked. I dont know how you guys shoot so many rounds in one trip, all my shoulder could handle was 50 rounds. I noticed the faster you shoot the less time you have to think about how much it hurt time to get the mag ext this weekend, i love this gun Andy

that helps thank you Back to the store i go to get some heavier loads. Andy

Just got my M1s90 and i need to break it in. I purchased the some shells for this purpose but all the **** numbers have me confused, not sure if what i got is correct for the break in. what i got was Federal game loads 12 gauge, 23/4", 1oz, 31/4"Dram lead 100rounds After reading some posts i think i got it right but i just dont really know what i am doing. just looking for some input thx Andy

who pee'd in your cornflakes dude. I think his main gripe was that his brand new gun broke. I would be a little pissed off too if my gun broke on its first day at the range. Also, what has soured this situation is benellis response, which i am sure has made the Stevenb a bit more upset. Its not that hard to pick up a phone or send a letter with the new part expressing an apology and prompt replacement, which he got neither. Benelli did replace the part and that is the bottom line, but i can understand Stevenb's attitude and i am sure if this was wallhangers gun he would have posted his displeasure also. Andy

Waterworks I also have the M1 and have been waiting for Benelli to upload the manuals. I still cant beleive they have not got them up yet. If you could pls send me the PDF or link to one i would be greatfull. thx Andy

Looks like pretty compelling evidence to me. We been bamboozled! Andy

After seriuosly considering buying the M1014 i feel glad i didnt now. I would be pretty **** pissed if i spent the $ on the M1014 and i couldnt put on the Collapsible stock. That stock was a big part of the draw to that gun for me. It looks sharp without it, but with it the **** thing is purdy beyong words. I really feel for my Benelli brothers who own this model and are getting screwed. Hopefully Benelli will address this issue for all the M1014 owners. I like the Benelli, but i wont be buying a M1014 unless they resolve the FUBAR. Andy

Thx lock Mine looks just like yours minus the mag ext, i will fix that this weekend i cant wait to shoot it, going to the desert with some buddies pretty soon to break it in. I have a G21 i need to shoot still too. Ben gay huh, i will pick up a tube, they sell that next to the cases of magnums right ?

I never owned a shotgun before, was going to get the M1014 but i got a M1S90. hey its still a benelli and i love it! just couldnt justify the $ for the M1014 but more so i got the M1 because it was my first shotgun, no point getting a cadilac if i cant drive so to speak. That and i wanted a new G21 too Andy

Maybe after the election depending who is in office we may get them. They sure would sell fast huh Andy

Benelli doesnt want to release the colaspible stocks to the public, hence the LEO ( Law Enforcement Only). They do know about the ban ending but as a company it would appear they have deceided not to change thier policy. Someone else wrote benelli on the forum and the reply was also LEO. andy

Thats a No, they sell them but according to a web site that lists OC shooting ranges they do not allow firing shotguns at the range. you could call and ask, who knows when that web info was posted or if its even true today. Andy

I will be at a couple of gun shops this week, i will inquire about what your lookin for. I found an M1s90 in culver city for $970 with what i wanted on it. If i can sneek away from work wednesday i will go get it paid for and start my wait. I will see if they have what you want. Andy

Steve i was having a hard time finding an M1 super 90 in OC that was reasonibly priced and was actually in stock. Fowlers had one at $960 Stockade had one for $1025 Ontarget had one for $1300 as you can see our local prices are all ove the place for the same gun. I was refered to Oaktree gun club in Valencia and they have one ordered and selling for $905. as you can see the local prices are inflated, best to do a little driving if you want to save some money. It couldnt hurt to see if Oaktree has what you want, thats maybe 90 min drive from irvine call them and see if they have one. 1-661-259-7441 Oaktree Good luck Andy

ahhh ha, i thought there was a diff, just goes to show not all people behind the counter know what they are talking about. Guess i get the M1014 thx M1014 Andy

According to the benelli web site the only difference between the two guns is the LE has the American flag engraving. So my question is this the only difference between the 2 guns? Andy

Can i actually buy the skeletonized colaspible stock online and ship it to CA? Granted i cant install it but its for my collection and at least if i sold the weapon i have the stock to include it in the sale. Or if i get elected President i can wipe my A** with all this crappy Assault rifle banning laws. Andy

I am consideriing buying the M1014. I wanted the colapsible stock but i am learning its not legal to own in my state of California. I saw a few other posters mention this but no replys from other Calif owners. Is it my understanding i can own the collapsible stock but i cant install it ? is there a way around this ie. can i get the m1014 with out a pistol grip enabling the use of the collaspible stock? I dont currently own a shotgun, nor have i, but its time to add one to my gun collection. Any comments reguarding this model and Calif gun law. Thx all Andy [ 08-29-2004, 12:59 AM: Message edited by: AndyinSoCAL ]
