Hostile Tree Sloth

Also included are the original sights, mag. tube and the handguards.

Withdrawn WTS a virtually new Benelli M4-it has had less than 50 shells fired through it. This one has all the good stuff already done to it. It has the factory Benelli 3 position collapsible stock; Benelli extended mag. tube; Mesa Tactical 6 round side saddle; Meprolight tritium night sights (rear "ghost ring" and front post), the awesome Brugger & Thomet M4 Quad Rail Handguard (model BT21353) with stardard Picatinny rails; front sling attachment; it comes with original box, warranty card, Benelli oil, original Benelli hand guards, cylinder bore wrench and a BlackBore Tactical muzzle Brake. This is an M4, not the M1014. It is in perfect condition. I am not the original owner, but there is not a scratch on this shotgun. It is immaculate. I will have pictures tomorrow. WTS for $2,450.00 shipped to your FFL. U.S. Postal Money Orders or certified bank funds only. I will not ship it to California or sell to anyone not authorized to buy or possess it. Contact by p.m. or e-mail is fine.

Along those same lines, regarding recoil, I've not yet fired my M2 Tactical with the Comfortech stock. Will the Comfortech stock tame the recoil to an appreciable degree? Or, is it a minimal improvement or, gasp, just an option that costs more? HTS

I got very lucky with the MR1, I got it via a "no reserve" auction on Gunbroker for $960.00. I have not bought an M4 yet, but on Monday I did pick up an M2 tactical with the Comfortech stock, ghost ring sights, tritium inserts, an extended mag. tube and the larger charging handle. I did not get a good deal on it, but it looked so good, I had to buy it.

I picked up the new MR1 yesterday. Of course, it comes with the fore end and barrel off. Even after reading the manual, I can't get the barrel on. I may be being too timid, not wanting to force anything, but I can't get it to line up and fit in place. This is my first Benelli of any sort. Is there some trick to this that I'm missing?

Thank you, I may take you up on that. I intend to keep it very clean. I like to clean my guns within 24 hours of shooting them and this one will be no different. Now, I just need to get an M4 to keep the MR1 company in the gun safe. HTS

I found a pretty sweet deal on a MR1 on Gunbroker, and I could not resist. It is on its way to my gunshop. I am anxious to give it a try. I know that most people either love the way it looks or hate it, but I think it looks futuristic - which I like. This is my first Benelli (I did have a Franchi), so I am looking forward to getting it. HTS

I tried to find the names of the moderators to ask permission to do this post, but I could not find them. For purposes of full disclosure: I am selling some of my shotguns to buy Benelli shotguns. So, while theses two shotguns are not "Benelli" shotguns, the proceeds will be used to buy a Benelli so this topic does, at least in a round about way, relate to Benelli products. So, as with my I-12 post, if the moderators do not want this listing, due to the content, and choose to delete it, I understand. With that caveat: WTS: WTS two Remington 870 Express "tactical" pump shotguns. I bought these several months ago, but now I am selling them to fund a Benelli tactical shotgun. These guns were modified by a professional who only customizes and works on Remington shotguns. They have been significantly "toughed up" with heavy duty parts and they were built as no nonsense guns the builder sells to law enforcement departments across the country. So while they may look like stock Remingtons, they are not. # 1. 870 Express 20 gauge. This one is used, with maybe a box of shells fired through it. This shotgun has been upgraded with a heavy carrier dog follower spring and a solid steel extractor. It has been parkerized and has trijicon ghost ring night sights and a Remington two shot extension, giving it 6 + 1 shell capacity. It has a Knoxx specops stock with two rear sling mounting options. WTS for $460.00, plus $35.00 shipping to your FFL # 2. 870 Express 12 gauge. This one is brand new. It has an upgraded trigger group with the heavy carrier dog follower spring, as well as an upgraded solid steel extractor. The barrel is an 18.5" factory parkerized police barrel with a fixed Cyl Bore Choke, Tritium rifle sights and a Wilson Combat shot tube for 6 + 1 shell capacity. It also has a Knoxx specops stock with R2 pad and it has a Surefire 618 forearm. A Blackhawk PowerPak comes with the 12 gauge but is not shown in the picture. WTS for $945.00, plus $35.00 shipping. Will sell both, as a package, for $1,375.00, plus $40.00 for shipping. Cash, U.S. Postal Money order or Certified funds. No sales to California or outside of CONUS. No sales where it is illegal to own these shotguns and no sales to minors. Contact by p.m. or e-mail is fine.

I must be the odd man out. I like the camo. But all things being equal, I would buy a black one for less money if I had the choice.

I think much of my difficulty has been caused by the holidays. Several of the companies/stores on line which sell the gun have been closed, or their computerized inventory system shows in stock inventory but in reality, their data is out of date. Maybe Monday will bring better results. I guess I was just surprised to find not one Nova H2O listed on Gunbroker, Gunsamerica or Auction Arms. HTS

They have a version which he said was all black. I did not realize that there was such a version. I want the version with the stainless steel colored barrel. I may drop back ten yards and punt on the idea of an H2O and buy a supernova tactical. I'm not sure. Thanks.

Thanks, I will give them a call tomorrow or Monday. HTS

I want to buy a new Benelli Nova H2O. I have searched the internet high and low (and in between). I cannot find one in stock. Can anyone suggest where I might find this elusive shotgun? Thanks, HTS

Greeting: I have some tactical shotguns, which I enjoy. Only this week have I "discovered" the other end of the shotgun spectrum. That is, the nicer, wood and engraved, higher end, semi-automatics. Now, I have no use, or need, for such a shotgun, but I really like how they look. I would like to buy one, with a top end of the budget at about $1,400.00 simply to add to my modest collection. Of course, while admittedly it will be a safe queen, I want the best gun for my money. I am just now starting my research on these guns, however I would appreciate any advise or suggestions as to where to look, what to read or what you suggest that fits my criteria and budget. I know this is pretty open ended, but I appreciate your assistance. HTS
