    Steadygrip in black

    in Benelli

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    Anyone know if i can find SBE2 steadygrip in black? Would like to have an optional stock whit pistolgrip for deer hunting. But I can only find the SBE2 Steadygrip in Advantage Timber HD®, since my SBE2 is in black I would like the stock to be in black aswell.

     

    Anyone know were I can find this product, for example not even Cabela has it in black.

    Sorry, no sidearmour. I didn't get a licens for a magextension (In Sweden you have to have a special licens for magextension more then three shots) So I couldn't mount it.

     

    But instead I have ordered another mount witch you just strap around the pip whit rubber straps.

     

    It works, but dont look to good, but It have to do for now.

     

    But I will ordera larue Aimpoint mount ;)

     

    Ill post some pics on my shotgun when I have recived all parts.

    Great links, but some of them are a little bit overkill :D

     

    Ok, the final decision. I have to order before the weekend.

     

    M3 or M96!

     

    Im leening toward M3 since there are more accessorys for that light.

     

    Ill post some pics of my shotgun when I have recived all the parts. It will be in the middle of december.

     

    Thanks everyone for your help, especilly Duggan, I am very greatfull for your help.

    Does this XM tailcap fit the M3 combat light? http://www.surefire.com/maxexp/main.pl?pgm=co_disp&func=displ&strfnbr=6&prrfnbr=24372&sesent=0,0&search_id=115531

    Another quote from the surefire homepage

    Features integral shock isolation system to withstand repeated recoil or impact.

    Hi Calvin,

     

    I have some questions regarding M3 combatlight. I am thinking on buying a M3 CombatLight for hunting. I want to be able to mount it on both my rifle and shotgun. I have a semiauto shotgun by the brand Benelli. I would like to be able to mount the surefire light on my magextension under the barrel. What kind of mounts should I get to be able to do that? Would be great if I could mount and demount it quickly.

     

    I was thinking about mounting an Surefire MODEL M12 on the magextension witch I can attach the M3 flashlight onto. But what kind of attachment do I need on the M3 flashlight to be able to do that?

     

    What’s the main difference between the M3 Combatlight and the M96?

     

    I have ask all these questions to Surefire support. And this is the answer I

    got:

    Quote,

    Sir,

     

    The model M3 will not stand up to the recoil of any shotgun, it will become damaged when the weapon is fired too much recoil. Try on of the millinium weapons lights.

    Quote end.

     

    I have also asked these questions in the Benelli Forum http://www.benelliusa.com/forums/ultimatebb.php/topic/1/3446.html were Duggan has been very helpful he is the one who recommended you.

     

    And it seems like the Answer I got from Surefire is a pile of bull****. What is your opinion and what would you recommend for this task?

     

    Would be very grateful for answer.

     

    Do you have a homepage whit your products?

    Thanks I e-mail him right away.

     

    I have done quite some research about these flashlights. And the only difference I can see betwin M96 and M3 combat is that the M96 has an integrated picatinny rail mount. And less assesories.

     

    I wonder why He would say that the M3 cant handle the recoil. When it says on their homepage that the M3 is built to whitstand heavy and repeated recoil?

     

    Thanks again. Lets see what the Calvin answers me.

    Thanks a lot for all the effort!! :D

     

    Sorry I didn't answer earlier but I have been away moose hunting for over a week now :D

    And I allso shot some wild berds whit my benelli.

     

    I E-mailed Surefire just before I went on moose hunting. This is the answer I got:

    But I cant see the difference betwin Millenium weapon lights and M3 combat lights :S Except it has an integreated Picatinny rail mount. But I would prefer to have a magextension mount instead of sidearmor.

     

    Millenium: http://www.surefire.com/maxexp/main/co_disp/displ/carfnbr/267/sesent/00

     

    Moving to the next question.

    Thanks for the larue suggestion. It shore looks intresting. Shecking it out now ;) ...

     

    This is the picatinny rail I have ordered:

    http://www.benelli.it/Articoli/Armi.asp?ID=25 Check under assesoris.

     

    Can you suggest any dealers of Surefire flashlight and Larue mount in the Pittsburg area? Since a friend of mine is comming to Sweden in a couple of weeks. And I am going to E-mail a long shopping list whit gun components. tongue.gif

    Thanks for the advice.!!

     

    Nice pic, what kind of rifle is on that pic? Just curious.

     

    One more question: Whit the M3 Turbo comes a 2.5 inch turbo reflector. But does it come whit the ordinary reflector that is mounted onto the M3 combatlight as well? Cause when I mount it on my shotgun I want to have a wider beam and when mounted onto my rifle I want a tighter beam and increased distance. Or can you by the M3 Turbo reflector as an optional part to the standard M3 combatlight?

     

    And one last question regarding scope mount. I am thinking of mounting an picatinny rail on my SBE2 http://www.benelli.it/Articoli/Armi.asp?ID=25 check under Accessories.

     

    But what mount should I get to my Aimpoint sight? is it possible to add a Throw lever mount? like this http://www.surefire.com/maxexp/main.pl?pgm=co_disp&func=displ&strfnbr=6&prrfnbr=818&sesent=0,0&search_id=108130

     

    Thanks again Duggan for you help.
