  1. Personal preference aside...

     

    Moving through the house in a high ready position? That's just bad advice. The proper position is Indoor Low Ready, the weapon close to your body and bladed across your chest. A hand reaching out will only find the shotgun being pulled toward his legs or pelvis.

    I know your LE trained, but I'm not counting on having SWAT with me and I don't need to be concerned about muzzling team members.

     

    If I'm clearing a corner where the 10% area is on my firing side, I'm going to able to address any threat that 1/4 second faster if I'm at the high ready than indoor low ready.

  2. It's mostly a matter of personal preference, however, I swapped out my M4 PG for a field stock because the PG inhibits your ability to ability to carry your weapon in certain positions, such as high ready. Try going around a corner to investigate that bump in the night with a PG'ed shotgun without leading with your barrel, and you'll see its very difficult to maintain your grip on the PG. Also, if you do lead with your barrel and a baddy grabs your weapon, its much easier for him to break your grip on the PG by twisting the shotgun than with a field stock.

  3. Many have used the factory spring in extensions without problems.

     

    Others have purchased longer springs designed for other Benelli weapon systems or aftermarket springs like the one distributed by member Cleefurd. http://shop.carriercomp.com/category.sc?categoryId=2

     

    I personally use the extended spring from carriercomp in my DMW tube. I shot 125 rounds through my M4 this past weekend using the extended spring (firing Winchester Ranger low recoil 00 buck) without a single failure to feed or other problem. The spring was great and I was extremely pleased. For $12 its a great deal.

  4. I have this safe:

    It's a decent 5 gun safe -- very sturdy. Fits nicely in my closet where it is bolted to a stud. I feel like I got a good deal for the $$$.

     

    Also, I wanted a dial lock because I wanted the safe to be 100% mechanical, but not key opening. My concern with push pad or other system that requires electricity to operate is that I still want to be able to get to my guns if TSHTF and there is no power, batteries, etc.

  5. If you're looking for way to carry some extra shells but don't want them on your weapon, another option is a belt mounted tactical stripper.

    Here is an article on a couple of makes:

    And a vid of two gentlemen from the U.S. Army shooting team demonstrating speed loading techniques using both the side saddle and the tactical stripper:

  6. I am putting a field stock on my M4 and am looking to sell the PG stock that came with it. Almost new--got the M4 less than a month ago and have only taken it to the range twice. Will sell for $100.00 (includes shipping and insurance).
