That is exactly the tube I was talking about in the photo. In addition,'I really like that sliding stock on the M4, hope that makes it to us in the US eventually.

Overseas, Benelli sells extended mag tubes for the Vinci in 5, 7, or 9 round capacity. They are not cheap, $300ish each from what I can determine. Anyone have a line on a source for these from Europe? Maybe stationed in Italy/Germany/England for you active duty guys? Family in the old country maybe? I have not been able to determine part #'s from the little printed material I've seen. Thanks. Kevin Bush SFC, US Army, retired NRA - Life/Benefactor GOA - Life

I'll second that, I really like the stock forearm also. Kevin Arizona

Glad to here the factory was able to get it running again. Any idea what it was they corrected and/or replaced? Kevin

I might be wrong, but I thought the front sight tower would get de-soldered or otherwise removed by your gunsmith and reattached after the barrel was cut. Did he tell you that a new one was required? Kevin

Please post photos and what state you are located in. Thanks Kevin

If you don't mind buying from Walmart, you can get 15 packs of Remington and Winchester 2.75" buckshot or slug for $8.97 a box here in Arizona, probably the same wherever you are. Whatever you end up getting, buy, and shoot, a lot of it.

I'll second that, very impressive. Good Job! Kevin

The factory parts manual describes it as; part# 161J, Field Stock Assembly No idea what it might run price wise. Kevin

Smokin I'll be very surprised if anybody here has written a "922R compliance" letter to the ATF. What exactly would be the reason for doing so? I am confused as to what you are trying to accomplish with this. Please explain. Thanks Kevin US Amy SF, Retired NRA Life - Patron

Theres a lot of good things to say about tritium sights, but they can be expensive and are just an asset at night, they don't help in daylight at all. Since your M4 has a factory rail, have you considered something like an Aimpoint Micro? I just ordered one for about $350 delivered, a brand new 4moa R-1 model on closeout. http://www.manventureoutpost.com/products/Aimpoint-11911-Micro-R%252d1%2C-4-MOA.html Great at night, and a considerable asset in daylight also. After the battery dies (50,000 hours / 5+ years), a new battery is a couple of bucks, as opposed to new tritium sights at one or two hundred. Might be worth investigating.

I really like the standard sporting stock also. While I also think it looks better (thats just my subjective opinion), I think sporting stocked shotguns are more "ergonomically correct" and user friendly as far as the manual of arms is concerned, as long as we are just talking about tube-fed sporting based guns. That said, I've got a C-Stock for my M4, but the pistol grip is more of a necessary evil to get the short collapsed length. If I ever do any 3-gun shooting again, I'll be fitting it with a sporting stock also. Nice looking shotgun. Kevin US Army SF, Retired NRA Life - Patron

Carriercomp/Kip Well the bare, muted finish Titanium charging handles showed up on your website today as promised. My order is in for one, plus a 7 round tube and a rail. Thanks! Kevin

heckler&kochp2000 Wow, I am stunned by how fast you got this C-Stock to me. I ordered at 2:00am Friday morning, and got it Monday afternoon, and exactly as advertised, Brand New in a factory box. Thank you very much. Kevin

On 15 Mar, you replied to "AggiePhil" about the availability of charging handles, you said; "If you don't mind the bare or muted titanium knurled part we can do that any time you're ready. The ones being PVD coated tactical-black are out for round two. 1st result was not dark enough to be considered tactical. " Are these half inch, and in stock? I do not see them on your website. If you have a half inch, knurled titanium handle with the above "not dark enough finish", I'll take one, as is, with no return option, sight unseen. My second choice is a half inch, knurled titanium handle, uncoated with a muted finish. Please let me know how to go about ordering if they are available.
