  1. I see there's no shortage of very vocal anosognosics on this thread. lol There's something wrong but you'll never know what it is - http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/06/20/the-anosognosics-dilemma-1/ BTW, rough calculations reveal that the shooter spend no less than $5K on guns, ammo, and the Beta mag, not including the body armor and the stuff he wired up in his apt. Where does an unemployed grad student get $6K to spend over the course of 3 or so months??? His parents' credit card?? I cannot image any parent allowing their mid-20s kid to take off on such a tangent with them funding it, but who knows, right? You know, sometimes the truth is a painful thing, and yes, it can make your head hurt. However if it's too much for you, carry on with your cherished delusions. Me, I prefer keeping an open mind while considering ALL possibilities.
  2. “It is natural for man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts... For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth, to know the worst, and to provide for it.” --Patrick Henry Gunowners need to be paying attention to events and not merely blow them off as 'a lone nut' doing such things - otherwise you may not have access to Benelli shotguns and ammo in the future. Cui bono? Certainly not the shooter, at the minimum he will never see outside the prison walls ever again.
  3. Indeed, it is what it is...whatever that is. Derren Brown hypnotized a fellow to actually 'assassinate' a well known public figure with a 'loaded' gun last year - There are just WAY to many anomalies and inconsistencies* in this event for a reasonable man or woman to overlook all the possibilities. The only way to keep guns out of the hands of someone with a clean and spot-free record as the shooter in this case (only one traffic ticket and no other contact with police) is to outlaw guns and/or ammo. Remember, LHO acquiring his Carcano and handgun prior to Kennedy's assassination via mail order is what led to the banning of mail order guns with GCA '68. *Why the body armor if he shed it right outside the exit door and didn't get into a shootout with cops/suicide by cop?? Why clue in arresting officers to the booby traps (which apparently took a LOT of time, effort, and resources) in his apt. if his intent was to take out cops who entered his apt.??? The AR was ditched right at the back door, the body armor a few feet away near his car, yet the gas mask was ditched roughly 75-80 yards from the back door and at least 200 ft. from his means of escape/his car. You don't find all that troubling?? But there's more. As for the OP being 'germane' to Benelli shotguns, I assert it is very germane to the discussion of Benelli shotguns with respect to if you're contemplating getting a(nother) hi-cap Nova, Super Nova, M2, M4, etc., spare parts for same, ammo and such, then you better get your **** squared away 'cause the gungrabbers are on the move (UN Treaty amongst other things). BTW, how convenient that this happened while the UN Treaty is up for a vote.
  4. If you're a gunowner then this affects you whether you like it or not, to think otherwise is extremely naive - imo. And forget the 'theories' I'm only concerned with the evidence, and in this case there's no shortage of curious evidence. ETA: And FWIW, only the brainwashed rubes ridicule the term 'conspiracy' - fyi it comes from Latin, 'con' = with and 'spire' = breathe -> conspiracy literally means "to breathe together". If one doesn't think the gungrabbers are conspiring against gunowners then one is either a moron or controlled opposition.
  5. Does anyone here get the impression that something is very wrong with the picture being presented to us regarding the shooter in Col.?
  6. Includes original fixed stock, nothing mentioned re: 922® compliance - http://texasguntrader.com/index.php?a=2&b=222116
  7. Frankly I don't think it can be accurately and objectively said that any one of the M1, M2, Beretta Extrema 2, or FN/Winchester SX3 is any 'faster' than the other. IMO the distinction is in the recoil, and also I think you will find some Benelli owners on this forum who are convinced the M2 has a faster cyclic rate than the M4. And fwiw, Beretta owns Benelli. You didn't show your timer in the video, how'd you conclude it was an ET of 0.7 second?
  8. I don't think so - Let's see you hit 10 for 10 clays -
  9. It's only because they love us all, each and everyone.
  10. Of course you realize that it's a spoof, right? What appears to be a gun has no receiver or otherwise visible action.
  11. The buttstock configuration for the 121 M1/SL80/121 is unique to that shotgun and no other Benelli buttstock will directly interchange. On the other hand the S90 M1 plastic foreend can be modified with a Dremel tool to fit the 121/SL80 (relieved where the foreend slips over the receiver). Choate Machine and Tool has made both a plastic field stock and a plastic pistol grip stock specifically for the 121 M1 and may perhaps have either in their inventory. However be advised that these Choate plastic buttstocks are considerably heavier than the original wooden buttstock for the 121 M1 and could possibly affect the reliability of the 121's inertia action. And FWIW, you can forget about finding any spare parts for that gun, which is why I got rid of mine - as much as I loved it.
  12. Supply and demand, Economics 101. Supply was UP a couple of years ago and the price temporarily fell to ~$250. You're whining about $600, 4 years ago the c-stocks were selling for $800-900 on gunjoker.
  13. As in extremely patient. What was the wait for the last batch of rails? Nine months? FINALLY I got mine.
  14. Ends soon, looks like a bargain at this time.
  15. FYI - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Benelli-M4-Shotgun-Stock-Set-Part-70085-/300743509260?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4605b5c50c
  16. What was not clear and succinct about my responses??? You have three options and only three options if you want a 'cheek weld' when using a low mount optic on the Benelli M4 - 1) Install a factory c-stock and utilize the middle position 2) Get an aftermarket fabric cheek rest which will easily fit your factory fixed stock 3) Get an Urbino stock with a cheek riser Then there's the fourth option - Don't be the least bit concerned about a 'cheek weld' on a CQB tactical shotgun. Is that clear enough??
  17. You don't 'have' to do anything, it's just that the factory c-stock in the middle position works out suitably well for use with a low mount optic. Alternatively, one could put one of those aftermarket fabric cheekrests (like what's available for the M1A) on the factory fixed stock. Or just don't be all that concerned about 'getting a good cheek weld' when using an optic on the M4.
  18. The factory c-stock in the middle position raises the line of sight enough to use a low mount optic.

  20. Snide? I don't think so: Definition of SNIDE 1 a : false, counterfeit b : practicing deception : dishonest 2 : unworthy of esteem : low 3 : slyly disparaging : insinuating I've always regarded the AR gas impingement as second to none with respect to accuracy, and a ton of fun to shoot on the range. However anyone who thinks the very tight tolerance AR/M4 system is equivalent to any gas piston operated rifle (as originally designed) such as the FAL, the AK, the Sig 550, the SKS, the Daewoo, the AR-180, etc. is only kidding themselves. And with respect to saving one's bacon in the real world in extremis, reliability ranks 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the list of priorities...IMO.
  21. Twinkies mimic mud. Have you seen the torture test the Swiss put their (piston operated) Sig 550 through? The ARF/M4 wouldn't pass that series of tests for sure - there is no question about it. Try some toothpaste in the action and let us know how that works out (no problem for piston operated rifles). lol
  22. The question is...will half a Twinkie give it indigestion? lol [video=youtube;UhOb8q9CI-E]
  23. Very nice poodle-shooter!
  24. The part you're referring to is called the recoil link. I suggest you keep the recoil link pin (the pin which connects the recoil link to the bolt carrier) well lubed at all times as it is subject to a lot of stress.
