No F-Bdy Bs

Scroll down a few posts. I asked this exact same thing just a few days ago. Its perfectly normal, and the gun will cycle normally under normal firing operations. The red button allows you to remove a single shell from the chamber without having to dump the entire mag. Dont sweat it.

This is from another forum "Technically, it prohibits the domestic assembly or reassembly of an imported firearm into a configuration that is unimportable. Once the Bush Import Ban took effect, people quickly discovered the legal loophole that allowed the importation of neutered guns and their restorative parts separately, then reassemble the firearm into its unimportable configuration: Taking that ugly thumbhole-stocked MAK-90 and adding the pistol grip, folding stock, etc after importation. This practice was perfectly legal until 18 USC 922r was enacted to close the obvious flaw in the legislation a year later in Nov 1990. It applies to all semi-automatic rifles and and, according to a strict interpretation of the law's text, all shotguns regardless of mode of operation. There are a lot of legal arguments floating around regarding the law's applicability: Only ATF Import Branch has the authority to approve or deny a Form 6 import permit. If a firearm as been deemed unsuitable for sporting purposes and hence unimportable, then logically it has been submitted for approval for importation and been denied: Does 922r apply to an assembled or reassembled firearm that has never been denied import approval? If the firearm in the same configuration has never been submitted for import approval, then its importability remains undefined for that configuration. Can 922r apply where the resulting firearm is in a configuration not offered by the manufacturer, where there is no configuration to be denied importation? The Beretta Cx4 Storm is a good example where it is not a neutered version of a military weapon, but a standalone rifle made for the American civilian market. There is no manufactured version with a flash hider, non-thumbhole stock, folding stock, etc, so there cannot be an unimportable version." __________________________________________________- Here is my take. Id say that the LAST thing we need to to is swamp the ATF with letters regarding the legality of our imported shotguns.I like my new M4 with colapsable stock and +2 extension. The last thing I want to run across is some local jerkoff LEO that knows 922 inside and out because the ATF found need to make an issue of it. Out of sight, out of mind. If everyday, the ATF is getting 3 letters regarding 922, they are damn sure going to brush up on what it means, and pay it more attention. I have yet to meet anyone, or even hear of anyone on the net that has been nabbed for running a Benelli with an extension. So, my thought is to do what you want, at your own risk. We know what the law is for the most part, lets not push it. Id say that if you are worried about modifying the M4, then dont. SImple as that. That being said, I myself have a new M4, with all the evil parts, and I plan on a mag extension. A few guys from ARF.com got in contact with the ATF. They reported that the ATF said that unless you use the gun in a crime, you dont have anything to worry about. One of them said "Just dont use it to hold up a liquor store, and your good" Those exact words. I see wayyyyy to many modified Benellis out there at local 3-gun matches for it to be an issue. And I highly doubt that any of them have it registered as a SBS.

Someone should ban all you jokers for posting without pics of your new M4s:D Im a newbie here, and a new M4 owner. What was the first thing I did on here? Post pics. Get with the program. Question. Why are you going with Socom over Daves MW? I want to use Daves, because I hear you can use the +2 and still get the bbl off over the extension for field stripping without having to remove it. Get some pics up bro!

Hello, from a fellow newbie, and a new M4 owner myself. Where are the pics of your beast? Check for my post a few down. What options did you get. What was the damage? As far as red dots. If I do put one one there Ill probably go with one of those cheap RDP backup units that are for sale on AR15.com. I have one that I use for the close stuff on one of my ARs, and it works great. I just cant bring myself to putting more than a hundred bucks worth of sights on a shotgun. Here is a link to that sight http://ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=23&t=435538

How does the +2 affect taking the gun down?

Cool, thanks Im just paranoid I guess after dropping the coin that I did on this sucker:D

I havent gotten a chance to get out and shoot my new M4 since I picked it up yesterday. I was messing around with it today, learning how to take it down and what not. I loaded 5 shells into the gun. Racked one in the chamber and then attempted to unload it. The gun was requiring me to depress the cartridge drop lever each time I cycled the action to get a shell to move from the mag tube to the chamber. Is this normal? I was under the impression that I could simply cycle the action and empty the mag. I assume that under normal firing operations, that this will not be necessary.

Can you explain that to me? I must be missing something. Also, I was under the impression that Daves stuff came with springs.

Well, that went to ****. Word of advice. If there is a gun you REALLY want, but its a little more than you want to spend, dont go ANYWHERE where there might possibly be one. Rolled out to Clark Custom Guns today to drop off one of my 1911s to have some work done on it. What do I see on the counter?? Pure Benelli Goodness. In the form of a M4 Super 90. Ghost rings, removable chokes. 1913 rail, and the EVIL Skeleton stock. Now, all I need is the mag extension. (yeah, I know,ill take my chances [bD]) Is DAVES Metal works still the guy to go to? I had one of his extensions on an M1 I used to have. Figure I may give him a try for this one.

Id check into the Knoxx Spec Ops stock. Much more gentle than a thin AR stock. I had one on a 1300 for a while. Loved it.

Greeting from one newbie to another. Good choice BTW

Im in the market for an extension for my M4 as well. I had one of Daves on my M1 a few years back, it was 2nd hand. How much did it set you back, if you dont mind me asking. Also, do you have any contact info?

Humm, good read

10ga M4S90 would be where the party would start!
