items sold thanks.

*** Sold! Thanks for looking. I have an unused OEM Benelli M4 field stock for sale (standard stock without the pistol grip). Decided to keep my M4 with the original PG stock and forends. Please PM me if interested with offer. I'll consider all offers and get back with yes/no.

quick bump: make it $185 shipped. as mentioned this is brand new, never used on my m4.

Hey all, Well after months of waiting (ordered a new one a while back after a strange fit issue on another one) I've decided to stick with the old fore ends. I have a brand spanking new Surefire M80 forend. Arrived and I never even had the chance to put it on the M4. I'm not looking to gouge anyone just want to cover my costs. $210 shipped. PM me if interested. Thanks!

Looks like it has the Surefire M80 as well!

Thanks bm4sbs. I'll work with my FFL on this if/when the time comes. I'm all about doing the paperwork and process correct. Makes the waiting worthwhile in the end!

M4DC, I personally had a fit issue on an M4 with an older SF M80. For some reason I couldn't get the barrel seated all the way into the receiver. I didn't want to do any fitting on the M80 (filing, etc.) so I returned it. Btw Hookster was GREAT about this and I believe it went to a good home as it was in perfect condition but for some reason didn't fit mine. That said, I picked up a brand new one from Optics Planet about a month ago and it fit perfectly. Have you contacted them or SF to see when new stock would be available? But like BLACK and paladinjme said it should be fine. This seems to be the norm and hopefully mine was just an outlier. I'd say go for it as long as the vendor has a good return policy.

No worries but lets see some pics!

BHunted - looks awesome! Great job Joe. Is there an actual "block" / stop inside of the extension? I'm guessing you could unscrew the magazine cap at the end and see it from the inside? Looks awesome and a perfect solution for the People's Republic of New Jersey P.S. I lived in NJ part-time resident for about 6 years.. having left in 2010 and never looking back!

I also have the carrier comp follower but nowhere does it say on the product website that it comes with the hi-viz indicator. The website does show the follower with the red indicator but it goes into detail explaining that it comes with a complimentary tool to swap out the hi-viz indicator that comes with your factory Benelli M4. It also states: "Don't discard your RED plastic "Hi-Viz" day-night indicator!!! Your follower works just fine without it, but that RED piece has an important purpose..." They are pointing out that you should not discard the indicator that came with your factory follower. At least it is implied by the fact that they include a tool to swap your indicator.

I placed my order in late December and still waiting. I'm hoping its here by April!

Nice fix and thank you for sharing this tip! I'm pretty picky about fixes and appearance. Your fix looks great, very clean. Let us know how it holds up after some use.

That description makes me sick! Shower tube with Gold stickers. Unbelievable. Its disappointing they aren't more transparent on what you are buying but as long as they accept the return that's ok I suppose. I can only imagine there are some shady types trying to pawn these off on GB as genuine especially during these last few months. Sad really. No worries on the pics I can understand you wanted to return and be done with! Anyway thanks for sharing this in case any prospective buyers are looking at that particular product. Getting back to this thread I'm glad to hear that SOCOMguy is selling such an outstanding product. Looking forward to seeing pics of your SOCOMguy tube!

I had seen those on numrich and was curious. I didn't trust that they were genuine parts given that they were "available". How can you tell its Taiwan? I can't imagine putting a tube like that on the M4 especially since it won't help out 922r at all. Can you post pics maybe as a warning?

+1 The only multi-position stock that I have read about (although I don't think it is out yet, pre-order only according to ATI) is the ATI Raven system. Personally not my taste but glad to see fully 922R compliant options!

I believe based on SD's previous posting that it is Brian Enos's Slide Glide, standard formula (Post #19 here http://www.benelliusa.com/forum/showthread.php/29526-Benelli-M4-Trigger-Disconnector-and-Hammer-Disassembly?p=168990#post168990) Product page here: http://www.brianenos.com/pages/slide-glide.html Never used it but definitely looks interesting. I use a fairly popular grease on my components but curious if this stuff comes highly recommended.

Welcome! Let us know how the FFT tube works out for you once you get it and please post some more pics with the tube installed. Did you go with the Ti or Stainless tube, btw? FFT is great working with and they make some great stuff. I've got the FFT charging handle. However I decided to go with CarrierComp for my mag tube but I'd love to see how the FFT turns out for you. Like others though I'll be waiting months for the tube to arrive!

Wow congrats! Put up a picture of the full package put together I ordered mine almost a month after you in December... I'm hoping mine arrives in the next month or so?? So are you using your original spring with the carrier comp tube and follower?

I'm sure you're looking for a concise yes or no which I can't give but you might check out http://www.governor.ny.gov/2013/gun-reforms-faq. If you look up information on banned weapons and features it explicitly mentions the M2-tactical as an assault weapon requiring registration. Yet no mention of the M4. Further, "banned features" for shotguns include those that are semi-automatic and one or more of the following: Folding or Telescoping Stock Thumbhole Stock Second handgrip or protruding grip that can be held by a non-shooting hand Fixed magazine capacity in excess of seven (7) rounds An ability to accept a detachable magazine From the list of features it would appear that a fixed stock with a pistol grip is not a feature that would categorize it as an assault weapon. But then again the M2 is categorized as an assault weapon? I didn't read into the details of the SAFE act but I'm guessing the act gives NY law enforcement the latitude to include whatever firearms they want to include at any point in time even if it is not explicitly listed as long as it looks "military" enough. If it were me I wouldn't ship it to NY state but that's me.

SD - this is very helpful!! Thanks for your contribution as always!

Check out this thread: Magazine Capacity Issue! In particular posts #15 and #16 by XTrooper and benelliwerkes, respectively.

Great setup!

Extra parts are always a good thing!

Benelliwerkes, thanks to your posts I just purchased two Wiha drivers.

SD - wow I messed that up! There was so much oil on my rail (from being packed new) that all of those washers were still stuck in my OEM rail!! Yep placing them IN the SA rail with the screws seats them flush. I had to literally whack my OEM rail upside down and they came out. When I originally removed it I was so gentle that they just sat in the rail holes suck with the oil! So I'm assuming I should place these as well in the SA rail. Btw once I take it off say for a really thorough cleaning or just to re-seat the screws is it enough to scrape off the dried Loctite, clean them with the degreaser, Loctite primer, and re-apply the Loctite and refasten? Finally when you say the disassembly knob you mean at the end of the magazine tube that secures against the ball detent? I do see your point about weight savings. Btw since I'm only a measly 5'5" I'm sure you could knock my head off so I'll keep the questions to a minimum! Other than this SA rail + 6-shell carrier this is really the only "upgrade" I'm going to do outside of the mag tube and hammer. I tried the M80 rail but for some reason didn't fit mine. Hookster was really good about it though and give him A++ for customer service!
