  1. Bumping this thread as I was informed by Stranger Danger that people have been trying to modify the shell latch.

    I was working on converting a ethos shell latch to be backwards compatible with the older receivers until I came across a few threads about this. The one that sticks out to me is from bsp212 on the Briley loading port thread.

    Benelli will tell you the same regarding the 20g vs 12g shell latch for the M2. My guess is the only way to find out is to experiment. The spring and pin locations should be the same so it may be worth a try. 

    Coincidentally, I had ordered the the Rob Roberts modified 20 gauge shell latch before I saw this thread. So I will have 2 different 20 gauge shell latches to see.

    Late into my research, I discovered Briley manufactures a two piece milled shell latch, but it requires enlarging the receiver hole.

    Thanks! I just ordered the set of them along with a hammer, so I'm pretty excited for it to come in!
    Earlier tonight I ended up using an allen key to finish off the pin. Accidently knocked it out, but I was able to get in back in easily enough.

    I remember doing that once?. Ordered a set of nice punches and never looked back.

  3. Already like the XS sight more.

    I dunno if I will ever use it because my rig is set up for a red dot and has a cheek riser.
