  1. Just a note that my local dealer has slug barrels in stock for SBE II's and Nova's I believe however as noted before they do come at a price but they have them. Give them a call if your looking. http://www.jaquas.com/gunlist/NewArrivals.asp
  2. The M2 and SBE II are both Crio barrels. Not an issue there. I prefer the SBE II simply for its ease of take down and cleaning and although I don't shoot a lot of the 3.5 inchers its always a plus to be able too if needed.
  3. They are an awesome dealer IMO and its one of the nicest gun stores I've ever been in and I'm not just saying that because I do some smithing work for them. Make sure you allow enough time if you make the drive and you love any kind of shotgun and not just the Nelli's as I know you'll be there a while. I can find numerous guns to buy everytime I'm in there. Enjoy, and glad to help.
  4. As in a previous post of mine about my local dealer having connections with Benelli it seems as though they just got some of the first 20ga. UL's in stock. Heres the link. http://www.jaquas.com/gunlist/NewArrivals.asp
  5. ceg1 Where are you in Ohio? My dealer has one in stock. Ever been to Findlay Oh. ? If you love shotguns it well worth the drive. They can be scarce but this dealer is a pretty big Benelli dealer. They have the connections. Heres a link. Search Benelli from the pull down menu box. Welcome to the forum. http://www.jaquas.com/gunlist/NewArrivals.asp
  6. Its been discussed here before many times but I don't believe Benelli will sell anyone a comfortech stock unless you can send them one that you destroyed along with the S# of your gun. The reason is many would simply try to upgrade older guns and that would hurt their sales of new guns. Thats the way my dealer explained it to me as I went down that same road a few years back. My dealer tried to order one for me and that was Benelli's answer. No dice. They can be found at times on Ebay, Gunbroker. etc. If you find a source please post up. There are many that would like to buy them also.
  7. Congrats and welcome to the club. Good choice. We know your gonna love it.
  8. The search tool is a wonderful thing. Plenty of reading on the subject here. Search "Stock Removal"
  9. I believe the M4's all have choke tubes. It is the M1014 that is a fixed choke barrel only. Enjoy your new M4. We know your gonna love it! Welcome to the club!
  10. Benelli will only sell their new guns through their dealer network. No wholesalers or distributors are involved. Only bonafide Benelli dealers.
  11. Since the receivers are different I would say no. But I've never tried.
  12. If I may ask At what distance are you shooting and what type of clays? Hand thrown? Machine thrown? Shot size? Trap,Skeet, Sporting Clays or just having some fun in a field? Tucker is correct with his ballistics, however with shorter barrels you will tend to over swing and at longer distances the pattern will open up faster with a 18.5 " barrel depending on yardages. Most all trap guns are 28 to 34 inch barrels. Many skeet shooters use 26" but even at that 28 and 30 " are becoming more common on skeet and SC courses. It would be a challenge to say the least to hit a target from the 27 yd. line with that short of a barrel and a super full choke. Not impossible, but not easy. I’m assuming your just hand tossing a few. By all means try a tighter choke and see if it helps you improve and keep enjoying that M4.
  13. "I am skeptical about the recoil, I would like to see them fire 3 1/2 Mag Slugs and see how it fires then. I would also like to see if it can cycle bean bags etc. It also looks like it weighs 50 lbs. We don't know in what kind of weather conditions it will operate, we don't know how many rounds it can spit out before it needs to cool off." As a combat shotgun somehow I don't think the military is too worried about shooting bean bags. As a full auto why would you need 3.5 inch slugs? Especially with the ammo they show in the video. 50 lbs? To me the gun itself doesn't appear that bad. Add the drum mag, sure its going to up a bit. Look at the M16 of today and all the gear for it they are using now. Lasers, cameras, infra red optics etc. They are not exactly lite either. According to the video its made for all kinds of weather and it it made from many alloyed metals. Cool Off? Its not belt feed. Ever shoot fifty pair of doubles in trap? Trap guns can get pretty hot also but manageable. Recoil.? The Ljutic Dynakic trap gun and the Browning Recoilless Trap gun both used somewhat the same principal of taming recoil and they actually worked fairly well. They were just kind of ugly clubs on the trap field and didn't go over real well. Special application firearm? Sure it is. So is the M4. Modern firearm design is truely amazing to me and I guess thats really the point of this post. The days of the old 870 riot gun are slowly or quickly slipping away.
  14. Sadly this may end the M4's military days. What do you guys think?
  15. Check this bad boy out! Why worry about collapsing stocks and mag extentions? Wowzer! Anybody have one yet? Enjoy.
