I ordered a Nordic MXT +4 extension for my 18.5 Benelli M2, thinking that that would come pretty close to flush, at least with an extended choke tube. I then ordered a +2 extension cap from Shooters Source for those occasions I want to run 9 in the gun. That was $20. In retrospect, it would have more sense to have just ordered a second MXT Nordic extension to give me 9+1 for $34 so that I could install that for 3-gun.
