I have a very early HK M1, so I wanted to pick up a 14" entry barrel, however it seems that the barrel I'm looking at has a longer barrel nut lug, I was comparing both barrels 14" & 18.5" and the 14" has a longer lug, and the M1 forearm doesn't fit? So am I looking at a M2 14" barrel? and would a M2 forearm correct the problem? Thanks
Maybe a pic will help?
This is the M1 Super 90 barrel lug
This is the what I think is the M2 barrel? or it could be a later M1 barrel?

Roger that on the NFA rules, just wanted to clear up the interchangeability aspect.
Thanks

Here's the post on GB;

Are these barrels on GB drop in replacements for the factory 18.5"
and will they fit a standard M4 shotgun that's for sale to civilians?
The barrels on GB(14") are Benelli factory barrels
Thanks
-
Thanks for the "heads up" BTW Kip's is a G2G improvement!
-
Well I replaced the factory charging handle, one thing that I'm curious about,are you able to turn the new charging handle in the bolt? is that normal? It doesn't spin but you can turn it?
-
OK that makes sense, for some reason I thought they were in stock at the time of the order? Nuff said, thanks
-
Well I purchased a Benelli charging handle, but have not had any shipping info? Is Kip still around? not answering phones or email normal?
-
I believe that M2s are ok - they don't seem to be listed as one of the prohibited Benelli shotguns (some M1 varaints and all M3s). See item #7 in the following link.
Well just a FYI, for ya. You have to be careful and refer to your M2 as a "sporting special" the Turkey variant. Why you say? The police versions are the M1Super 90, M2, and the combo M3 all prohib. I know this is stupid but gun laws are stupid, much like the people that make them. Just tell them at the border that you have a Benelli Sporting Special and you will be fine. Hope this helps? Cheers.

Well after a late start due to work schedules, I'm off for at least one day. I'll be out hopefully every day next week. Anyway thought that I would share. I missed a year while in Afghanistan,funny, one of the small things about home that really makes you stop and think. Great Country of ours. Well wish me luck. Given the weather and the sunrises lately, turkey or not I'm still coming out ahead!!. Cheers.

Buds you will have no problem:D(no pistol grip stock though) , in fact along as the OAL is 26" plus you can go with a 14" barrel. Its not a NFA item in Canada. Contact the CFC for more details. Mag limit of 2rds apply for hunting.
-
Yea I have them too, just "battle scars" I guess.
-
I've used mine on the controlled deer hunt, it will probably see some action Turkey hunting next spring.

Read the following email string to LaRue Tactical regarding the EOtech mount. Anyone else have this problem?
"I mounted my LT-110 on my Benelli M4 and took it out yesterday. When
I was done shooting about 50 rounds I noticed it was very difficult to
remove the mount from the shotgun. When I finally wiggled it off, I
noticed that the metal bar that grabs into the picatinny rail was
badly gouged. Is this common? Do I have a defective piece? I have
attached a picture for your reference.
Thanks,
Geoffrey
No need to send a pic...the Bennelli has some wierd rail config which is not a 1913 Picatinny. Our stuff is only made for teh 1913 stuff. That lever just smushed-under the rail somehow and ended-up crammed in there. You couyld probably wiggle it around too. This has recently come to light by another Bennelli owner.
Sorry, please send it back for a full refund.
Mark LaRue"
I just checked out my LaRue mount on my Benelli, no problems with the rail or the mount?
I am finding it hard to believe the rail is not a 1913, this shotgun was designed for the Marine Corp? I would think that the rail would be a real 1913, to fit the accessories, since that was one of the guns selling features.

Well I contacted the factory and Yes they will work. FYI for future reference troops, M1S90 chokes will work in the M4.
-
Does anyone have one of these set ups on there M4, if so pics would be great and some user feedback as well. It appears to be a nice aftermarket handguard?
-
Does anyone know if the chokes from a M1S90 will work in a M4?. I have a extra full choke for my M1S90 and would like to use it in my M4.
-
Just my $.02 cents. I just came back from sighting in my M4 with some Federal Tru-ball. All three touching at 50m, not too shabby. I had some issues with the Aimpoint, but it was a mount problem. Can't say enough about LaRue Tactical. Top shelf, I have both his Aimpoint mounts and the ACOG mount. Had some good results with all the Federal slugs I tested, the "Tactical" and the Low Recoil.

Well I'm new to this forum, but I have to say that it is quite valuable when it comes to finding out answers to questions and other experiences from Benelli owners. That said I have followed the thread for the mag extensions. The prices are "outrageous" to say the least. If anyone has one to sell, at say doulbe the price ($66.00) X 2 $120.00 I would take it. I know that there is alot more money to be made but I don't believe in "gouging" fellow shooters. Just my $.02. Cheers

Thanks for the imput. I agree with everything you have suggested. I ordered some Federal slugs(Truball) and I have a few Remington ones lying around. X2 on the shell lenght and the weight.
-
Well I'm taking my M4 out on the controlled hunt. I thought that I might get some input from the forum on slug performance(selection) and choke selection. I guess improved cylinder or cylinder is the way to go?

Hi Troops well I'm new here. This is my first post. I'm looking for the Benelli 3 shot limiter(mag plug for 2 rds). Anyway if someone has one or know where I could get one in the lower 48, PM me . If someone has made one, that works for me too! Cheers
Just did a quick "surf" at Brownells, they have a universal plug, would that work in the M4?
