Thanks for the replies. I did, in fact, clean it thoroughly when I first got it home from the gun shop. I'm a clean freak with my guns, and I'm no rookie to gun ownership. (My M1 Super 90 functions flawlessly BTW). I then cycled some rounds through it, and this is when the issue first arose. I thought perhaps I was following the bolt home when I manually cycled the rounds. So I would let the bolt close shut after jacking it back in such a fashion so as to closely resemble a real shot. This seemed to help, but I would still notice some rounds getting stuck, and the lifter not picking them up. I thought the best way to find out if it really worked or not would be to take it out and shoot it. I then installed the full length mag tube made by SOCOMguy and took it out and shot it. I probably should have left it stock before shooting it the first time. Multiple failures. It's almost as if the timing of the lifter is a little slow or something. I cleaned it when I got home from shooting, but I haven't shot it since. Again, thank you for your replies.

I have a new M4. I noticed when I played with it, when I first took it out of the box, that when I tried to cycle some shells through it, the lifter did not always feed the next round up into the chamber. I then took it out and shot it, and I had numerous malfunctions with several different types of good quality oo and ooo. Do you guys have any suggestions? Thanks.

BTT. Is Sidearmor the only option right now?

A dedicated light would be great. I wonder why Surefire is dragging its feet on this? I'd wager it would sell like crazy.

I doubt it, because part of the mag tube is still Italian. To play it safe, get one of SOCOMguy's complete mag tubes (U.S. made). Then it would definitely constitute a U.S. part. This is the first modification I'm making on my M4. Next will be a follower, all depending. I'm waiting on a letter from the BATF delineating the number of parts, and it will dictate for me what I do. I plan to put a buttstock pouch on my M4 and carry the letter on the gun so it's always there to point to for authority.

Is the SS spring longer/stronger than the factory spring? I hesitate switching out springs because I've had problems in the past doing this with other guns (even using reputedly top-of-the-line aftermarket springs).

How many of you guys are using these followers in your Benellis? Are they a good product? I just sent of my M.O. to get the M4 full length tube from SOCOMguy, and I'm planning to install the Sure Cycle follower. I want to make sure I am not doing anything detrimental to the functioning of my gun. Thanks.

The LOP on my M1S90 is too long for me. A Benelli rep told me to get one the the old HK Benelli stocks, as they have a shorter LOP. So I'm looking for one, but can't seem to locate one. If anyone has one in good condition they want to sell, I will pay top dollar for it. Thank you.

I need to replace a buttstock on a Benelli, and I think I need a 13mm socket wrench to do it. I've looked in the hardware stores, but they don't seem to have the type of socket wrench I need. Does anyone know where I can buy one? I think I need a long one to fit down into the buttstock. Thank you help you can offer.

Did the factory mag extensions for the M4 also come with a longer spring?
-
Thank you.

Do I coat the entire outside? Just the threads? Is Rig OK? Thanks. [ 07-14-2006, 11:27 AM: Message edited by: Newaza ]
