Hello,
Upon doing research on the MR1 before deciding to purchase, I have run across a review that points out that only the factory 5-capacity mag was flawless.

They later go on to mention that the factory mag "handles like a Ferrari". My next question, if Benelli corp. reads these forums:
Is Benelli looking to address this issue with the next generation of the MR1?
Additionally, does Benelli ever plan to produce extended 20-30 round magazines for the Benelli MR1? I wouldn't even mind if they only work flawlessly in the MR1 as long as it "handles like a Ferrari".
Next question for experience MR1 owners:
Which mags have you guys found to be the most MR1 friendly?
What troubles have you guys found with the MR1's standardized M-16 clip when it comes to going in, staying in, feeding and leaving the rifle?
Any advice is much appreciated! I very much look forward to owning one of these babies! ... that is, if these clip issues aren't too big of a deal.
