Good, glad to hear it, let us know how you like it.

I started to buy one from Nodakspud but not going with a factory tube on my beloved M4 bugged me so I bought a factory +2 extensionon on Ebay,,,,,,,,, my butt still hurts but O well,,, it was there, I wanted it and now I don't have to worry about it, the pain will fade leaving only happiness (that’s what I keep telling my self anyway lol).
Nodakspud may soon offer their steel +2 extensionon tube in a parkerize finish
In an e-mail from them
The steel tubes we have in stock have a black oxide finish, but we arepushing the manufacturer to provide us with tubes that we can parkerize
to
better match the shotgun finish. However the shotgun finish does vary
from
gray to black.
I don't know when exactly we will have the steel tubes with a
parkerized
finish. Just keep checking with us on a weekly basis.
comments.
Thanks.

That is a very good point, and well taken.
My statements were made not really considering the fact he may not have put it together correctly, owning and using so many firearms as well as years of learning how they work may have blinded me to or given me an overly high expectation of those with less experience, though it’s impossible to know exactly what level of experience a person is at without really getting to know them and you have to start somewhere.
Absolutely make sure the firearm is assembled correctly and safe to shoot, if that means going through the owners manual several times or running it by a shop to have them make sure.
However upon confirming that the firearm is assembled correctly and safe to fire, as well as the knowledge to correctly operate and safely handle the firearm, I stand by my statement of “shoot it and see how it does, if it doesn’t act right then call Benelli or the dealer”.

Please allow me break it down and explain my reply in better detailOriginally posted by tucker301:Gixerman1000,
That's quite a diagnosis, considering the fact that he did a pretty good job of describing the problem
There are lots of firearms that act funny when ejecting the extra weight of live rounds or when the action is worked slow enough try to see how it works or what’s happening and I’m sure the long action of the 3.5” chambered Supernova doesn’t help especially without quick and firm rearward movement of the pump.
Add this to the fact he is “modestly new to this”, the shotgun is “brand new, never been fired” and he is basically playing with it at home with live rounds to see how it works, I think you can see that my original diagnoses might be accurate.
I could be wrong as the shotgun may very well be defective from the factory but I still don’t think calling Benelli or the dealer without even shooting it is going to help.
I can hear it now
Benelli / dealer = what’s seems to be wrong with it?
michaelbret = It doesn’t seem to be ejecting correctly.
Benelli / dealer = How many rounds have you put through it?
michaelbret = Well,, umm,,,,, none, but I was testing it (heard by Benelli / dealer as = playing with it) at home and it didn’t seem right.
Benelli / dealer = O that,,,that’s normal, if you could shoot it and report back that would be great.
-------
So MJ
shoot it and see how it does, if it doesn’t act right then call Benelli or the dealer, either way report back and let us know how it’s working out, I think you will be fine but good luck anyway.

There is nothing wrong with it, just shoot and enjoy it and everything will be fine.

I haven’t seen it yet but I was checking it out on the IMDB and found this pic so I thought I would share.

LOL, yea I have read some of your ongoing debates with m4madness and I’m not touching it with a 10’ pole lol.Originally posted by M1014:pm m4madness,,he might be home physically
or hidding from the feds,,,there out to get him,,and soley him,, little does he know there gonna arrest him anyways for possesion of factory parts 
I do see both sides though, 922R is a BS law that you have a one in a billion chance of being charged with, unless maybe you preformed a major crime that drew allot of attention and then the US attorneys office might use 922R as a holding charge until they could get their ducks in a row on the serious charges, but at the same time the last thing I want is trouble.
Not to sound like I need a tin foil hat but the only thing that really makes me uneasy even though I own nothing that’s illegal, is that I have a fairly large collection that I feel might put me in the spot light a little more than others, that and I have seen first hand what the feds can find if they want you bad enough.

I was thinking, has anyone ever thought of trying to fit a full length 7rd tube from another shotgun with an 18” barrel to the M4, the FN Police shotguns comes to mind,
It has a phosphate finish that I think would be a perfect match but I have no clue what the threads are, anyway what do you guys think?
How did some of you guys (living in the US) get the full length mag tubes for your M4?

Thanks, I heard the steel one was closer in color to the factory finish or at least not as dark as the black anodized aluminum one.Originally posted by Duggan:Aluminum.

Does anyone have pic’s of the steel one.
-
Is yours the steel or aluminum one?Originally posted by Duggan:I have one. They work fine. The color is noticably darker than the factory finish. The threads work the same as factory though.
I'm thinking about getting the steel one, I think I will be happy with it at least until I can find a factory tube.

I had been thinking of a new home defense shotgun for a while and since I hadn’t added shotgun of any type to the collection in about 7 years I decided I would get something I really liked.
It’s a new model with all the updates like the 2 port barrel, I picked it up today NIB and just got back from putting 100 rounds through it, I would have shot more but it got too dark on me but from what I shot I couldn’t be any happier with it, it’s an awesome shotgun. Now all I need is a +2 extension and maybe the collapsible stock.
One question though, I thought the mag tube without the +2 extension only held 4 shells giving it a total of 4+1 but using 2 ¾” shells I could get 5 in the tube giving it a total of 5+1, the 5th shell goes in the tube with no problem with a tad bit of room to go but is this normal for it to take 5 shells
Does your shell ejection port get dinged up on M4
in Benelli

It’s no big deal really, my M4 11707 does the same thing, though it's not a problem with function and it's doesn't seem to be getting any worse.
