i went to there website but no mention of the straight stock even with a part number search
Click on the link I posted above and then click on the right-hand black square below the M4 Stocks title.

He doesn't want a "pistol grip" stock, he wants a "standard" stock. They are two different things. The pistol grip makes it "evil" in New York State.
BTW, no one currently has them in stock, but you can't find them any cheaper than directly from Benelli. They sell the standard stock for $120.

Looks scary to me.

Check any semi-automatic pistol and you'll see the same wear. Perfectly normal and, again, a high friction area that could benefit from a dab of synthetic grease.
You're welcome!
-
Ditto. Looks like normal wear to me.
Shiny wear marks crave a little grease.

I believe he's talking about a "chamber lock" safety device. I've only seen them for handguns.

No longer available. Thanks!

Welcome aboard, John!
You need to get the **** out of Jersey like I did!

These are a working man's tools. They will get scratches. They will get dings. They will still work.

Vickers slings are good and I own several of them. One you may want to take a look at is the Urban-Sentry hybrid sling by Urban-ERT. It's a convertible sling that can be used in either a single or two point configuration. Be sure to view the video, as well.
I've been using this sling with my M4, in its two point configuration, for a couple of months now and I'm really happy with it. BTW, this sling is "sort of" a QD setup in that the sling is easily detached though you still have the sling attachments on the weapon. I don't find the attachments obtrusive when they're on, but they are there. Of course, the attachments themselves are easy enough to remove and you can always do that too.

They look fantastic to me. Congrats!

The ejection ports of LOTS of semi-automatic and automatic weapons get scratched and dinged after the FIRST cartridge or shell case is ejected. That's a fact.
Your M4 is not "damaged" and the fact that you believe it is demonstrates a gross lack of experience and understanding of these weapons. I can guarantee that if you checked every M4 on the planet that has been fired at least a dozen times, you'd find at least as many scratches on every single one of them as yours has.
Still think it's damaged? Send it back to Benelli for "repair" and see what happens. If nothing else, it should make for some interesting conversation amongst their gunsmiths.
Best of luck to you.

Are there any scratches on the head of your hammer? A firearm, including your M4, is a TOOL! They get scratched and otherwise marred in normal use.
If someone wants their firearm to remain in pristine condition, best leave it in the safe and never load or fire it.

Bore Snake Viper.
'nuff said
That's what I use. Work smart, not hard.

There's no need to worry about scratching the inside of a shotgun barrel; not that it would anyway since it's a battle of copper vs steel. Steel wins.
-
Thanks XTrooper! I see them online and I'll have to pick some up. Great price I agree!
You're welcome! They're also easy to cut-to-length around your rail-mounted accessories.

@ Hookster, did you mean new to the M4. I've been shooting shotguns for 49 years. Pump, Semi, O/U & SxS and have never had an experience like this. Given the math of 1/8" x 4 = 1/2 ", leaving 2 1/4 left in the tube, the 5th round won't even begin to start. Trying Winchester Super X 1oz slugs.
Still looking for a fix. Am I hearing right? The tube is supposed to hold 5 rounds of 2 3/4" shells?
Thanks for the feedback...
It happens and it's not limited to the M4.
The problem is that not all 2 3/4" shells are created equal. The first time I experienced this issue was with my Mossberg 930 SPX. When I loaded it with Federal Flitecontrol loads, which are longer than average, I got one less in the tube. In this instance, because I was so close to being able to get the last shell in the tube, a change to a different style magazine follower did the trick and I can now load the Mossberg's tube to full capacity.
In the case of the M4, if you're still using the stock "dummy" tube extension, eliminating the use of the magazine spring seal ring will give you enough extra space to easily load your fifth shell. Afterwards, just remember to keep a firm grip on the dummy extension if you decide to remove it!

.........do you have some type of rubber / synthetic rail covers on your M80? A ladder type maybe?
They are the Surefire M4 rubber rail covers. They're cheap and I love them; comfortable and very low profile.
-
A word of warning. If you buy one with a diameter larger than 1/2", it's almost guaranteed to whack your thumb when the bolt slams home while combat reloading. The smaller ones usually provide enough clearance for this not to be a problem.
FWIW, I'm using the FFT 1/2" steel model.
-
I "killed two birds with one stone" by getting a Mesa Tactical shotshell carrier for my M4 which incorporates an integral Picatinny rail in its design.
-
I use the ported version for the weight savings, of course!
-
I'm currently using a Trulock Precision Hunter ported cylinder bore choke tube.
-
FWIW, Benelli USA uses Trulock to supply their "factory" choke tubes as sold through the Benelli Store.

OK shotgunners, what is wrong with this photo?

That photo is about as plausible as them releasing a photo of him dressed in a jockey's outfit while racing his thoroughbred across the finish line to win the Kentucky Derby.
If he's shooting skeet, where in h*ll are his extra shells? If shooting at all, it's obvious it was only once or twice and he wasn't "shooting skeet" in the normal sense of the term.
