The FN SLP comes with two gas pistons for good reason - to handle both light and heavy loads but not at the same time. The M4 was designed to fire take no prisoners/full power loads and not light loads, and therefore Benelli made no provision on the M4 for firing weaker loads. I'm sure the concept was "In general no one will be shooting clays or be bird hunting with this short barrel tactical shotgun." Just a thought.

I see, you have a recent production M1014, that explains it. Apparently all recently produced M4 and M1014 shotguns have the plastic trigger housing.
I wasn't even aware Benelli was still making the M1014, somehow I was under the impression it was discontinued. Shows how much I keep up with current products. lol

The date code will be two capital letters in a square box stamped on the barrel.
I just checked my M1014 - metal trigger housing.

What's the date code on the barrel?

Did you purchase your M1014 new or used?

I've gone with the Glock equipped Micro Roni Stab in 9mm with Glock 33 round mags for inside the abode. It sports a build-in flashlight, T2 and a Steiner green laser. IMO the AR is way too much for use inside. Would like to equip a tactical shotgun with an IR optic.
I've owned several 121M1 Benellis, never experienced any failures to cycle to the best of my recollection. I'm thinking the light weight largely contributed to the heavy recoil. I sure do miss those 121M1s, pretty sweet shotguns in many respects, however I won't own anything that one is unable to get spare parts for.

I'm completely unfamiliar with the handling of the M2, therefore I'm posing this question since I just don't know. I'm hoping a RKI who has experience with both can give me some good input.
We all want to be there for our loved ones should there be a serious threat but there may be times when they will be forced to defend themselves without our help. So which is more suitable for a mostly inexperienced smaller framed woman or teenager (like a 13 y.o. girl) to use in a stressfire situation, the M2 or the M4, considering they may not shoulder it solidly? In other words if they are holding it 'loosely'. Some semi-autos don't function well when fired without being held firmly...which would be the preferred choice in such a circumstance?
TIA

If there are no holes, why not just drill holes?
Yeah, I should have thought of that.
Be sure to swab out your magazine tube to remove drill shavings if you do that while still in place.
-
If no holes for snap ring pliers then you may need to replace the magazine spring retaining cap with one that has the two holes for snap ring pliers.
I acquired one M4 which had no magazine spring retaining cap when I got it. It still doesn't have a magazine spring retaining cap. Maybe one day I will get a replacement but for now it's not a priority, just a minor inconvenience upon disassembly/reassembly.

Trust me, when in a **** storm all you care about is reliability and having more than enough ammo than called for. Cosmetics are meaningless in the real world. BTDT
If Cerakoting any of my stuff burnt orange and purple would render it more reliable and effective I would do it without hesitation. I've even been considering making a Hello Kitty version of one of my EBRs that is carried in the automobile, THAT would likely make any bad guy hesitate and go, "WTF?!?!?"

Style wise, the Mesa rail is pretty ugly. It's like putting magic Mormon underwear on your hot Italian girlfriend.
I don't give a diddlely-squat how it looks, is it suitable for the application? Does it work with the platform without major issues? (I wouldn't let the magic underwear deter me, she'd still be hot)
AKs and SKS rifles are ugly yet they work (even though the ergonomics do seriously suck on the 70+ y.o. AK).

Can someone help me? I purchased a benelli m4 h20 with my cc today. I didn't take possession of the firearm yet but was wondering why mine didn't come with a pistol grip. It only came with a traditional butt stock. Does this mean that my shotgun is not a benelli m4 tactical ? Plz help me someone? Should I cancel order or ask the store to get me a pistol grip?
The Benelli website shows the M4 Tactical H2O is available with either stock.

I've owned three 121M1 Benellis. I loved them but parts availability is an issue. Highly unlikely you will find any wood furniture. Choate has made stocks for them in the past and I put a Choate stock on one of mine however those Choate synthetic stocks are very heavy vs. the wood stocks. Dunno if Choate still has those available since they make their stocks in batches and at this point there's no demand for them to produce more. I suggest you check with Choate to see if that have any left. Also I think that maybe the earliest version S90 M1 forearm may fit, but not clear on that.

The M1014 I picked up had extremely heavy lead fouling from firing slugs. So I used a stainless tornado brush on a shotgun rod inserted into a cordless drill while using lead bore cleaner. It took a while but I finally got the very last of the lead out of the bore. I would think that your results would happen much sooner if all you have is plastic wad fouling.

Recently picked up a lightly used M4 with Benelli C-stock which doesn't match my preferences so I'm offering this very nice condition C-stock for sale. $265 shipped.

Go to the source, call Benelli and ask. The two I noted listed on ebay specified those stocks listed there would fit both the M1 and M3. M2 stocks are definitely different from M1 stocks, however I'm fairly confident all M1 stocks are interchangeable, but again, go to the source and get a straight answer.

There's a couple on feebay currently.
