Texas M3&4

It's as easy as cleaning any other shotgun.

Yes I did while hunting quail & phesants. Also I'm not the only one having problems. Link 1 Link two

$190-$200 aint' bad. I doubt you find one for much less. Supply and demand

Great pics. Who's side saddle is that? By the way get ready for a real disapointment in about 200 rounds when this beauty takes a nose dive and quits working.

That's the problem. The story of a friend of a friends, uncles, daughter, etc. This video has been floating around for over a year. One of several "Stories" I've heard is it was a TC and someone used the wrong powder in a reload and that is why this happened. Another story is the gun had a lodged bullet and the guy picked it up thinking it was cleared, when he pulled the trigger. My point is because someone is injured on a shooting line, doesn't make him stupid. (Unless your one of those towel heads) If getting hurt (no matter how small) when shooting or hunting makes you stupid, then I think everyone I know needs to put the guns away for good. But of course I've forgotten I'm chatting with gun owners. The most notorious fast draw opinionated group in the world. I say we just head out in the street and settle it the old fashioned way. 600 Nitro

Stupid? I'd say he's got balls. I doubt many of those posting how "stupid" he is would take the chalenge to shoot it. I doubt he knew that it was going to do the damage to his face/gun.

Thanks. I guess I should have clicked the "Contact Us" in the Benelli home page. Also spoke to a customer service person. She said working for Benelli for 3 years she has never heard of a bolt problem with the M4s. I said you need to do a search on your Forums under M4 bolts and you will see plenty.

Howdy guys & gals, New name old floater here. Anyway I've read some of the post of the M4 and the bolt failures. Well mine went out on me. The gas piston mushed the left side bolt face that it is deformed and is jamming the bolt against the rails and now is inoperative. The post I've read are several months old and never saw if Benelli came to a concolusion, or repair/replacement of the bolt. Thanks for any info or feedback. How about a number to call Benelli support?
