...the beloved hammer will always have a purpose, much like a corsage that completes a prom date's gown....
You sure have a way with words.
I'd suggest the M4 is the prom date. The hi-cap tube, forearm & follower are the farkles in the corsage. If she's wearing pumps (c-stock), the hammer becomes the darn dress!! Without that (hammer), you're naked. Illegal attire for most proms:o

Who is Kip?
Kip is shop.carriercomp.com

I appreciate your response and I understand what you were doing, but the conversation between the two of them was over and did not need to resurface. I apologize for attempting to moderate your actions, but like most of us I come here to read about Guns...not for drama between members.
I too had hoped it was over... had it not been for the assertion that KB Fab had tried to corner the market in post 19, the fuel would not have existed. Seemed odd that he would accuse someone of cornering a market he implied did not exist. Did not seem fair to watch him plant that seed. Perhaps it was mere sarcasm on his part. I like yourself interjected my .02 cents over what at first smacked of slander. It would appear neither of us appreciate unwarranted animosity. No offense taken by your jumping in too, actually know exactly how you felt.
-
Thanks again KB Fab.
-
Gotcha. Thanks for taking the time to clear that up. Aside from your assertion that KB Fab might have hoarded the remaining inventory which was probably harmless sarcasm, I can see where multiple interpretations might evolve based on the perspective you showed there. Perhaps not everyone is in the loop at the source. Let's see how it goes, and hopefully Geissele or whomever will continue to remember our ranks... however small especially given the sourcing logistics have already been overcome. If nothing else these threads prove inventory would always be sought after and aquired by folks like us.
-
Are you just generally in a habit of disrespecting others on this forum and answering questions which WERE NOT directed at you? Fight your own battles tough guy, the convo between TKTM and KB Fab doesn't require your interjection.
Ahhh you misunderstood. No battle existed. Pointing out what appeared to be skewed details. Did not mean to appear tough, just observant. He was oddly hijacking & undermining a person's thread whom had given up, with wild assertions. Perhaps it was I who misunderstood. Thank you for understanding. Now I see your point. No quarrel with you or anyone else for that matter. Cheers.

....Based on what I was told, and what Cleefurd has posted; the last remaining stock of M4 hammers are on their way to Carriercomp. The only way there will be more after that is IF there is enough demand to restart production; apparently Geissele does not expect that demand to happen.
TKTM that is a stretch...
Positive Geissele is still making these for us.Will update the store when the next batch arrives. ETA late April to ship from Geissele.
Hope this clears up confusion.
TKTM your use of tarot cards has undermined your reading comprehension.
-
Why now leave out the part now where the sales person at Geissele said "as far as I know" in response to your question?
Why is that you ran out and bought a hammer(s) based on the information I provided, but now you don't seem to want others to do the same?
Frankly the animosity makes no sense in and of itself, it makes me wonder if there is something more going on. Exactly how many M4 hammers did you buy? Maybe I should have tried to corner the market too instead of giving people here a heads up they were about to dry out?
Did you record KB's convo with Geissele? Because your inquiry conveys contrived portions no one here is privvy to.
KB may have believed your erroneous assertion and bought accordingly, yet I see no indication he (KB) is discouraging others from buying.
Your last paragraph is so utterly convoluted as to suggest... well words fail me. I will agree with one thing you said in it, something else is going on here, your marbles are all over the floor.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]1468[/ATTACH]My 11yr old son took his second bird in Maryland season 2012....myself and friend Fuller was along. Very exciting hunt.
24lbs- 8" beard- 1" spurs

Outstanding!!

Anywhere from $300 to $450 recently, maybe nearer the tall figure with an election looming

KB Fab thanks for this thread. "Back order" and an ongoing store listing indicate to me "demand" and further production. Not to mention the farkles they sent, further testament to Geissele's commitment to this item. I'm convinced.
-
BTW BM4Robins if it was not an FFT disconnector a link to a new thread would be an appropriate way to discuss that alternative further, or PM details. Thanks.
-
Are you able to divulge the source of the tungston carbide disconnector?
+1. Please don't just tell us it was heat treated by an outfit that has 30 years experience. Inspire us with pedigrees that have names and bloodlines. And PLEASE post a link to the source, or have your "peer" join the forum and post pics and reviews he and his fellow club members might share.

The swivel is for the M1014, not the M4. That is why it doesnt seemt to fit (was told this by Mesa at the time.)
To install on the M4, yes- my inlaw, the process engineer, drill pressed the metal insert of the handle and the handle to widen it to the M1014 size.
Its been working like a charm 2+ years with no issues.
I thought every part except the recoil tube were identical between the M1014 and M4??
-
Ummmm. Those pictures aren't half a**ed theory Its risky to depend on parts that deform.You're risking your life with a half-assed theory on an internet forum? You lost me there.....
OK. Not willfully, but proudly, if they're using the good stuff.No gun company is going to willingly divulge successful metallurgy....
Sweet!! Now you're talking! Post a link to that jam packed thread!!!, and hopefully one that is chok full of hard data, sources, proud materials selection, and renowned component origin would be nice. Otherwise you are only showing us the flip-side of the same coin we have here, specualtive etc. Pony up the truth. You still haven't even told us what 4 components your Benelli rep DID mention were addressed on the H20. We're tired of what you called "nonsensical misinformation , half-assed theories. conspiracies and speculation" , enlighten us.When I get a chance I will post some pictures from another thread that showcases the internals of the trigger group that clarifies this topic a bitCreating these parts to match the specifications of the manufacturer is as much an art as it is a science.......
Wasn't a question really. Just wondered like others what your motivation is, we just want raw data, bring us that, not opposing speculation and you'll be the cat's meow. Otherwise.... yawn.and marc63, I have no idea what you are asking me so I'm not even going to try to respond -
Yep...I noticed that, too. I have mine ordered, but got the word from Kip that they are still at the anodizer and expected back in a couple of weeks.
-
I like anodizing best. What happened to yours? Either anodizing or Cerakote would require a processor with an FFL. I'd be interested in hearing where you send it in the latter case, since I have a 22lr bolt gun receiver I want Cerakoted.

Final pics
And yes, I've blacked over the fiber optic portion of the sight. I've got RMR's mounted on other guns and found that in full sunlight the dot is just too bright. The judicious use of a permanent black Sharpy tones it down quite a bit. It's still opaque enough to pick up bright sunlight and doesn't lower it too much if it's cloudy.
Does the front facing lens surface get any carbon deposits from the ejection port?
-
Hey Josh,
You are espousing many things. Not helping much. Conspiracies? Really? Who? Conclusions? Where?
Pictures, theories and reviews are priceless. Only a conspiracy if they were photoshopped. We aren't drawing conclusions. FFT has every right to guard their source, and Benelli might be too busy to spell out their build spec sheet, which leads some folks to think out loud.
Ease up and let them troubleshoot. Even RDA1 suggested alien intervention. Roll with it. Not all the intel is bad.
P.S. TKTM your last paragraph was very well put. Thanks.
-
Is there a surface prep procedure required? I am not seeing any change in the color with the B.C product.
It works TOO well on some aluminum, creating a jet black veneer that flakes off like glitter. Then flawlessly on other aluminum types, perfectly mimicking the surrounding anodizing... all the way down to having little to no effect on resistant alloys, where it may just take a hint of grey. The only thing that OFTEN helps is to scuff the aluminum (might be tricky on tiny affected areas) in order to break through the self healing exo-skeleton that aluminum develops when it oxidizes after it is exposed to ambient air. Either way, the bare aluminum won't migrate on an anodized part. Now if it were plated, then you'd have big problems, which is why I'm leary of the H20 guns. Plating is great for steel, but have seen shotgun receivers with cavernous pitting under compromized plating of aluminum.
-
Wow. Thanks for the heads-up, Sonny! Was able to tune in, and what an eye-opener. It looks like the M4 was a real hit with everyone involved!
-
And, finally, it looks like there may be black ones in our future. Kip (Carriercomp) said he sent some out for a test finish but hasn't gotten them back yet. It would be nice to see a pic...
-
Congrats, Zeke. I definitely recommend Carriercomp's titanium mag tube (with free follower). It takes a little while to get it, but it's well worth the wait! It was one of the first things I added to mine. BTW- It will take care of two parts toward compliance (the tube plus the follower).

Sounds pretty neat. If you don't mind me asking... What makes tracers illegal where you live? (if any reason for the law has been provided that you know of)
