Thanks M1014, I also found something which was a mini-review on Benelli's in general from Shooting Times, February 1999.

Still trying to learn all I can on the M1 S90 Tactical, I found an old article ~1995 on the H&K Benelli by Wault Rauch. Anybody know of anything newer, or possibly a book or armor's book? Thanks

Duke of Lawnchair, Thanks for taking the time to do this. You are right, cheap insurance.

Thanks, I'll keep a look out for that problem.

Duke of Lawnchair, Yes, I would like to know what you have ordered. I'm sure others would be interested also. Thanks garyoNC

Okay, I've put about 200 rounds through my new used M1 and I like it very much. What spare/replacement parts do I need to get? I do not like having a broken gun and having to sit around and wait for parts to arrive, so I like to stock up on what I think I might need. Also, I've noticed that when I shoot and the barrel starts to get warm the choke loosens up, when it cools down or is cold it is tight. Is this normal? I don't want to tighten it when it's warm, so should I just leave it alone? Can I shoot slugs with the choke in? Thanks garyoNC

Well I put around 75 rounds through my M1 on Saturday and was extremely pleased with it. My buddy wants one in the worst kind of way. I found some value Winchester 3 dr. shells I will start using for practice. I also used some real powerful Remington #4 Heavy shot a guy brought down and no one liked it because it kicked too hard. You know, it hurts so good. Then I tested my S & B 00 12 pellet tac load and it worked flawlessly! I had a problem with it the last time I shot and I had hoped that it was just a dirty gun, and it was. I have not taken the recoil spring out yet, but I will on the next cleaning. This is a great forum; I look forward to learning from some of you guys.

Drundel, What type of problem(s) have you guys had with Rem Oil? I have used it quite a bit on all kinds of things with very good results.

I just got an M1 S90 Tactical, used but in excellent condition. I put about 100 rounds through it and thought it was time to take it down to clean and lube. It was a little tricky but after reading some posts here it went fine. I could not believe how simple it was. After a good cleaning with Hoppe's and some dry time, I used just regular synthetic oil. Rem Oil would be just great in my opinion. I use Mobil 1 synthetic engine oil, have for years on almost anything with excellent results. Anybody else out there have any opinions?
