  1. Looking for M1 and M2 wood stock sets.
  2. Welcome Back, Blimey! The Twins are gorgeous
  3. Long time return eh? Pretty cool projects! How do you like that trigger void?
  4. ok wait up a minute... no need to turn this upside down.... I can see where glen_e is coming from; he stated "new, unassembled". He has the box, I'm assuming that is his picture, and it is likely sitting in storage since 2012. Some folks would rather use Stock photos to represent the item.
  5. Beggars can't be chooserS, go pro-mag.
  6. Additionally on the California forums, somebody had a M2 (sporting style receiving) with ghost rings and a 21" vent rib. LOL
  7. The aluminium tubes are exchangeable from the M1, M2, M3, SBE, Sport II, etc..... Funny I am putting M4 stock tubes on M1s and M3s and now im suggesting the other way around:confused: That is a good suggestion for carrier comp, unfortunately we may only guess how swamped they are with work.
  8. I propose that the champs whom are not interested in the collapsible stocks switch out their receiver extensions for the lighter aluminium ones! Seriously, the weight savings may be worth it! I had tons of the collapsible stocks and never knew why I bought them other than looking cool; I did not find them comfortable. Got rid of them, so why not dispose of the steel collapsing tube with it? My next M4s will be getting the light weight treatment with the field stocks paired with Mr Kips Tubes. Also tossing out the pictanny rail:p Just thinking out the box.... VF
  9. Grimy! that shotgun has got some deep character!
  10. I am not an expert at AR-15s (never even shot one!); but I do know Shotgun muzzle brakes face the same issues as M1911 muzzle brakes, not enough velocity to be effective. I am not recoil-sensitive, but I do not notice a significant reduction of recoil unless I am using my "Steel recoil reducer". With no ports on the bottom, you may notice a minimal reduction in muzzle flip. I actually am working on one, basing it off of the retro "870 MK1 and MK2". My clone will be for an ordinary 870 Police, but I may also design one for the M1, HK-512, and M121. Have you considered the S&J hardware bayonet mount for shotguns?
  11. Well... go to your local gunsmith and check to see if the sights are aligned to the axis of the barrel.
  12. Not yet, I will need to get it hard anodized and treated before I do so. Yeah, I am not a fan of the teeth, I almost forgot you had one incarnation of the choke! Machining the clamp area was difficult according to my machinist. Too much vibration and too far out of the holder. This is why it is so expensive. The clamp style was made because it is for Benelli Barrels without the choke tubes. The M4 won't really benefit from this design, But the M1, M2, and M3 will as I have provisions in place to integrate raised ghost rings on the "rifle-sights barrels of those guns using the thread holes from my brake. [ATTACH=CONFIG]2586[/ATTACH] This one is made out of aluminium.... because the Benelli and H&K muzzle brakes I have are also made out of Aluminium And I never had issues with deforming. I might make some steel ones that actually have constriction to them.

    M4 mods

    ATI didn't use the existing system designed by Benelli. It looks like they just used an AR15 buffer. There are so many unnecessary components in the ATI unit that makes it a "boat anchor". Its pretty easy to pin, use an M1014 receiver extension or Drill and tap the push button. Personally owned a Benelli factory one and saw no point in pinning it to shorten the LOP, just get the Mesa Tactical.
  14. I am having these made, I do plan to get a multi-axis Lathe to do the Machining myself (that won't be until a few years:() I don't think I will sell these as the costs to make is more than what I think is a reasonable price for a brake. (its still better than spending $800+ to import one, which is what got me to redesign it myself) Since you want one for your M4, What about the screw-in-choke types?
  15. Well finally got my Muzzle Brake today, I think it looks cool (the mall ninja inside of me is very happy ). I was not able to get it on my Supernova or M1, but I will definately make some more for my M1014, M2, and 1301. Fitment is great and I know it won't go anywhere with the recoil. I can even reverse it, whereas the Benelli one may not. Now to make some new sights and some M4 Collapsible Stocks!

  16. Well since we are discussing muzzle brakes.... Just need to get it coated! [ATTACH=CONFIG]2579[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]2580[/ATTACH]
  17. Proud to say I say wrong! How does the grip feel?
  18. Found this video today while browsing, Relates to the M4 Trigger group
  19. Yeah, the M1, M3, and M2 has the screws on top of the receiver. I have never removed the ghost ring on my M1014, but the M1 and m3 were easy to remove. It was just this M2 that was giving me trouble.
  20. Just Me using the WRONG tools for the job. I could likely make a pair for less than the price from Numrich's. I will eventually order everything from Brownell's as you have done. [ATTACH=CONFIG]2571[/ATTACH]
  21. I stripped the slots on that M2 conversion, no idea why either because I used the same amount of heat on the mag tube and on the Ghost ring.
  22. Would like to see the work/modification you did with that tru-lock muzzle brake
  23. Mother of mercy! Condolences to your friend, may he rest easy knowing that his items of worldly possession have been given the SD treatment.
  24. Me too, I hate how you Teased us on Calguns!
