Just got off the phone with Benelli Customer Support. They are goin to send an entire front forearm because they do not have any of the barrel nuts at this time. They have done a great job handling the issue. Hopefully I get it some time next week. I have a trip planned and will have to hunt without a sling until it comes in. I will post an update if i can find out if this is a replaceable part on the comfortech or a new forearm is always needed.

Hi, yes you are correct. thanks for the reply. the comfort tech has no such screw shown in the schematics of the standard r1.

Anyone out there with a comfort tech that knows how to replace the barrel nut? Thanks again

Hi Tucker, Thanks for the response. Yes, my brother has the standard and the screw is easily found. the comfortech model does not have the screw, or any other I can find. It does'n look like there is any place to remove it. it looks like the plastic is molded around to hold it in. I was hoping someone may have run into this problem already with a comfortech Sometimes i hate being first. In terms of the parts manual. my comfort tech came with what looks like the parts manual for the standard R1.

Hi All, I am a new owner of a 06 R1 comfortech. I have shot about 30 rounds on Winchester Superx 150grain. I am not happy with this round and will be trying others. Anyway, the forend barrel nut on my R1 is defective and the small piece that the sling swivel attaches to has broken off. must have had a stress crack or something. Anyway, Customer service said they would send a replacement. The strange thing is , on my forend, there is not a hex to remove the forearm nut on the Comfortech. Has anybody done this on the comforttech? CS said it could be remoed but i don't see any way. Thanks
