  1. Had them, played with it in a lot of different combinations and still couldn't shake the wobble. I am happy with my choice to go with the scout.
  2. Got my CDM BMC-3 slot rail, I will post up a review once I can run it a bit on Saturday.
  3. I'd take the sling plate depending on what kind it is... can you send a pic to my email address (in your PM box).
  4. Just another thought, you will most likely need one extra hand if not to in nearly any HD role at some point. I view a sling like a holster for the SG. Dial 911, grab your kiddo, open a door, lock a door... I agree that a sling could hang up on something, but I'd rather the option to sling the gun... not to mention weapon retention.
  5. Thanks, I hadn't seen that one. I may make a slab of Carbon Fiber to mimick the GG$G one
  6. Not trying to rain on your parade, but Nordic Components does the same thing for $12 bucks. Its a drill and tap though... not hard, but not for a novice either.
  7. Search "hotwire" and "pelican" on google... you will have your answer.
  8. If you have an extra M1 S90 forend laying around and are willing to sell it, I'd love to hear from you. Perhaps you installed a Surefire forend? Any condition as long as it is functional.
  9. Sorry bud, not my gun... just where I am heading for a light. I prefer irons, but if the budget allowed I would try a red dot on a scatter gun. I painted my front sight blade orange if that counts? I should get mine this week, I hope it lives up to my expectations. I will write up a review when it gets here. Search Cree Q5 or R5 on ebay. Most of the LEDs come from there reguardless of what product they end up in. Just watch for the correct voltage rating (your G2 is 6v for instance) and then you can choose mulit-functions from there. I bought the BMT 3 rail. No swivel... but I can add one later as the system is modular. Post up some pics of your setup! Sounds great.
  10. Chuck thats a nice group. What ammo and choke combo is that? I have found that Federal Flight Control on a Improved Cylinder runs like a dream in my shotgun (M1). Big Hat- I think the same thing, loading the round from underneath seems much smoother and more natural for me. Not to mention the bolt slaming home on my hand if I can't get it out of the way fast enough. I need to get in some live fire to add to my dry training. Check out the Nordic round button as it is only $12 but will need a steady hand and drill press for installation.
  11. I got the DVD series for Christmas, and after watching the handgun and carbine series, I was jazzed to see what the Shotgun video was like. Here is my simple/humble/non-gunfighter review. First off, I did learn a lot. Since this is the Benelli forum I was stoked to see the instructors run a M1, M4 for most of the drills. Other guns covered were the Rem 870 and 1100. Mossys were touched on but not covered nearly as detailed. The instruction is simple, clear and well documented for reference in the drills section. I learned a lot. Now, I had NO previous shotgun training, but I feel like I know what to train for at the range and dry training at home with dummy rounds. Mainly slug change overs, combat reloads and speed reloads. The video was fair to the warrior, competitor, and average joe HD user equally. They corrected enough of the students to get a good understanding of what to look for in your own technique to see if you are on track. They covered patterning and zeroing very well and their importance to a combat shotgun. It had a great section on gear, accessories, ammo, and their pro's and cons. I was hoping they would show a few more skills in operating the shotgun such as short-sticking, or leading targets but there wasn't any. Overall, it is worth the $35 bucks and was an entertaining, well filmed, informative video series. Just thought some others would like to know.
  12. I just sold a Surefire 617lf for my M1 with only handleing it in the house. It wiggled in every direction and made an otherwise fast gun feel bulky. You can get a high powered LED bulb for the P60 series of surefires for nearly nothing these days and get close to 300 lumens...for about $15. That said, I am going to run this M600c Scout with a tape switch and I just ordered a CDM mount for it as well as the Nordic ones are a little bigger and I don't think the finish matches as well. YMMV.
  13. I agree, they are putting out so many gimmicks... on a good gun or not, that I will not be buying from them in the future. They are getting comical in their marketing. I know a lot of Mossbergs are on the battlefield but these tactics in marketing leave me with more of a "toy" sense than a hardened battle weapon. Now, if you put a chainsaw handle on a Benelli... that I might go for.
  14. Sweet! Glad you gave it a good home. I went witha Mesa Tactical side saddle instead.
  15. Get a new gunsmith, where are you located? I would get some good PB Blaster or other penetrating oil, and start to spray it down a few times for a week or so. I would tap and heat it up to (not too hot, a heat gun would be fine). Smack it with a nylon hammer. Have you tried a speedy wrench, they are a fantastic design. If you have, carefully imploying a cold chisel and hammer should be able to knock it clear. Worst case scenario... you booger it up and have to chop it anyhow. Heat, tap, drench with PB, try to knock it out with the chisel... repeat.
  16. The reality is you can shoot stuff you can't see, the trouble is when you shoot something you didn't properly identify!
  17. Get a high powered rifle/handgun or stay inside. I'd get the .460 S&W and carry it strapped across my chest if I were going into big bear country... ... that is- if I wasn't going to bring a .375 H&H rifle with me I think in a life or death encounter with a big critter, it is best to bring enough gun.
  18. Yeah, I was goofing off with the light mounted for the last few days with my high-tech low drag mount. I like the configuration enough to dive in head first now. Personally, I like a light on every weapon I have. I think that having a light is always an advantage. Did I mention I really like lights too? Here was my dry run test mount to see if I'd like the configuration...
  19. Yeah, I have decided to run the scout light setup. I love the ergo's of the factory forarm and I found this new mount I am going to try for it. I was able to sell my SF forend to fund my new light. CDM Gear: http://www.cdmgear.com/bmt.html I am going to try the 3 slot version. Shouldn't add much weight. I will be putting the pressure switch on my thumb as well. Super Dak, the SF tape switch your using does both constant on and momentary correct?
  20. This made me chuckle Best of luck finding the part you need.
  21. I have a BNIB, Surefire 617LF for a Benelli M1/M2 Super 90. This is the older P60 style head, but you can get a LED drop in for any P60 to upgrade. The new Cree Q5 bulbs will get this light up to 300 lumens for around $15. I installed this onto my M1, and decided it wasn't for me. It hasn't left the house, been shot, it is absolutely as new with everything that came from Surefire, even the box, papers and auxillary items. I will get picks up tomorrow. It has the constant on and off switch, as well as the pressure switch with the block out plate. Here is a link to Surefire, however it is for the LED version, but it looks the same. http://www.surefire.com/LED-Momentary-Constant-On-Switching-617LF $210 shipped to your door. Paypal is fine as a gift (or +3%) or USPS Money Order. ****SPF on another board****
  22. Let me say I am a HUGE fan of lights on weapons. I recently bought a Surefire Forend for my M1 S90 tactical. It is a great light but the old incandesant light style. I know I can upgrade to a LED head or bulb for about $60 bucks. However, I like the SF forend as far as ergo's go, but I don't like the fit of the forearm. It wobbles around and wiggles in nearly every direction. Nothing more than what a pump does, but after the nice Benelli stock with NO movement, I have gotten spoiled. Here is how it sits now... Thus my decision. I just recently picked up a heavily used SF Scout light, and I am thinking of running it on a Nordic Components clamp/rail system up near the muzzle like this... It is a lightweight light... and has good spill for a shotgun light. I don't love the idea of getting the weight way out on the end but I can drop the light on and off quickly with the mount. I'd run a pressure switch to my thumb side of the forearm and be adding just a few oz and I'd get my tight forearm back on the gun. What says the Benelli crowd?
