  1. Hello everyone , hope this sounds right. The round piece on the bottom of my stock where you grip it fell out. Does anyone know if that part can be replaced it looks to me like it just snaps in. Thanks
  2. I put a Nova bead on my M2 12 ga. a couple years ago to lower POI and it seems to have worked perfect, well my wife bought me a 20 ga. M2 for christmas and today was the first chance I had to shoot it and it shot really high with the C shim does anyone know if a Nova bead will fit on a 20 ga. M2. Thanks
  3. I bought used M2 and had to get Benelli to send me a C shim and lockplate in the owners manual it say the C shim is 65mm on the paperwork that came with the shim and lockplate it says 45/60 is this right. Thanks
  4. I think i might have found my problem the shim is down past the reciever and the sharp edges of the shim was rubbing my finger i will try and sand it down smooth and problem should be solved.
  5. I have been shooting my M2 for going on 2 years now mostly for dove hunting and have never had any problems until yesterday. I went duck hunting and was using 3" #2 Hevi Metal shells this is gonna be hard to explain but bear with me everytime I shot my middle finger would get slapped by the back of the trigger guard it seems right at the area where the stock meets the reciever and where the bottom of the shim is the 2 edges are sharp, I don't know if because I have the C shim in or if this is normal my buddy was using a SBE2 and I looked at his and his was smooth. Maybe if this makes sense to anyone someone can comment. Thanks.
  6. I have a M2 this will be my second season hunting with it I hope the gun shoots way high. I have the thickest shim in C i've added an easy hit sight heck I even tried a limbsaver pad, still shoots high I got to reading some earlier post and found one where a fella had the same problem and he used washers so Fri. I tried it I only got to shoot a couple times because it was getting dark and seems like my pattern is now 50/50 maybe a tad higher, before when I shouldered my gun I could see the rib all the way down now I see where the rib steps up and just the easy hit bead, hope this works I will know tomorrow.
  7. I recently found a Beretta AL390 on sale and bought it just to dove hunt with, yesterday I took it out and shot it a little bit and did some patterning I was shooting 1 1/8 oz. heavy field loads and 1 1/4 oz. high brass shells and what I found out is to me there is no difference in felt recoil between this gun and my M2 plus the 390 is heavier doesn't point as quick and doesn't have different pads so you can change LOP. So in my opinion Comfortech works and is worth it. Now I will have a 390 gathering dust some people like me just have to learn the hard way.

    Camo Finish

    I've tried to find earlier post about cleaning the camo finish on my gun but haven't found any. Is it alright to use oil or just wipe it off with a damp rag. thanks

    Cast (fix)

    After dealing with my gun patterning to the left I went to a machine shop to see if they could make me a locking plate with the hole drilled in the center they said they could for $70 an hr. so I went to lowes bought a piece of flat steel went home and made one. After a trip to the pattern board everything seems fine, Its hard to believe that moving the hole in the locking plate about 1/4" or so it would make that much difference, but the test will come this weekend if the birds cooperate. Thanks for all the help guys.
  10. forget flipping the shims around it makes it worse. I thought it would but i had to try it. I found out one thing its not the gun i had someone else shoot it the pattern was perfect side to side, guess its me but i have no idea what i'm doing wrong or how to fix it
  11. I've read through these post and read my owners manual several times but i have to ask. I have a m2 right handed gun and i shoot right handed and my gun is patterning high and left I can live with the high. I am using the C shim, DX cast shim and C locking plate the CDX faces the pad, if i flip everything around to read SX will that make my gun shoot more left or more right. Seems when i shoulder the gun i see down the rib and the right side of the barrel and i know thats not right. One other thing I tried flipping the lock plate to read SX once before and after putting the stock back on i couldn't get the locking plate to start on the recoil spring tube. hope this makes sense and thanks for the help.
  12. I have an M2 that i've shot about 15 or 16 boxes of shells. I believe the gun is broke in now, do you guys think I will have any trouble with my gun cycling light 1 oz. field loads. I thought I might try them on a quail hunt this weekend.
  13. With all the problems i've had with my gun I finally settled on the C shim, I also changed to a 14" lop pad and put an easy hit shotgun sight on. Now my pattern is about 50/50 but still a little left guess thats just something I will have to learn to deal with it, other than that the gun has performed perfect wish I could say that about my shooting. Thanks for all the help you fellas have given me.
  14. Appreciate the help after your response I got the shim out it clearly has D wrote on the shim but on the package they sent the shim in it says Drop Shim 65mm 12 ga SBE/M2 so I really don't know what i've got
  15. I recieved a D shim from Benelli for my M2 they did not send me a D locking plate does anyone know if one of the locking plates that came with the gun fitappreciate the help
  16. thanks, thats what I thought just wanted to ask now if someone can answer the 2 shim question
  17. Benelli cs is supposed to be sending me a D shim to try and lower my poi in the meantime I will ask 2 more questions I read in another post about using 2 shims what if I use my C shim and file the **** of my A or Z shim will that work. next my cast shim and lock plate are DX it is a righthanded gun and I'm shooting righthanded and its shooting left what will happen if I change the cast shim and lock plate to SX. I really appreciate the help I've never had this much trouble trying to get a gun to shoot straight.Thanks
  18. If when I mount my gun I am seeing the bead and the top of the bead all the way down will changing the shim have any affect right now I have the C shim in.
  19. hello fellas, after writing several post on here about gun fit and shims the problem might be me. When you mount your gun as if you are shooting a bird what are you supposed to see. I can close my eyes mount my gun as if i'm pointing at a bird when I open my eyes I see the bead and the top of the rib all the way down and most of the time I see the left side of the barrel. Thanks for the help
  20. Does anyone know if the D shim that comes with the sbe work on an m2. The m2 comes with a,b,c and z. Thanks
  21. Just a thought about Benelli Customer Service after talking to them about my POI problems they are sending me out a new choke to try and fix the problem. I sure hope it works
  22. I found a sight called easy hit shotgun sight on another post and would like to know if anyone has one and if you have to remove the factory bead or can you install it behind the factory bead. Thanks
  23. hello folks, just got back from patterning my gun and this is what i've got. A M2 with a 26" barrel right handed I have the C shim and DX locking plate. AT 25 yds. with full choke shooting off a rest the pattern is center just a little high. AT 25 yds with my imp. cyl. choke the pattern is still high and left. I was shooting Remington heavy dove loads. Is there any way to lower the POI and bring it a little right or an I just stuck with it. I have always just pointed and shot I don't know if I could ever get used to shooting under a bird. Thanks for the info.
  24. I have a M2 I patterned it with my imp. cyl. choke about 25 yards or so the gun is shooting high and to the left the shim I am using now is C I guess because in the package are A,B,Z should I try the B or Z any info will be appreciated
  25. I have a M2 and would like to know if the shims are for changing the point of impact thanks for the info
