Fab Defense has never been a pillar of quality.

I’ll get a pic tonight.
I know it’s the MR1 5 Position Recoil Tube

So a while back, I was curious about upgrading the butt pad on my SN Tac’s collapsible stock body. After a bit of research, and using a spec sheet StrangerDanger sent me, I was able to confirm the 10403 pad would fit well. I ordered one and did the install. An easy process, getting the screws out of the Benelli pad was the hardest step.
Like the M4, a relief hole must be drilled in the backing plate. Due to the angle of the Super Nova’s receiver extension tube, I drilled a 3/4” & a 1” hole as pictured. The factory Benelli pad has a slightly larger relief hole. I reused the Benelli screws from the factory butt pad.
**I did notice one thing that I don’t care for. When fully collapsed, the receiver extension tube presses on the pad. I won’t shoot it with the stock fully collapsed, but some may. Just a point to be aware of. I have thought of acquiring a spare tube and cutting an inch off my factory tube.
**Apologies for the poor pics, taken in my dungeon work shop in basement, very poor lighting.

Modlite has some lights that are supposed to be superior to the Surefire DF models in terms of output at a similar price point. I haven’t bought any to confirm yet.
The Modlite bodies are better made than the Surefire ones as well. They’re a bit lighter too. I have tested the bodies and they are definitely better.
I can confirm, ModLight is brighter and has a better beam throw, I have two. Both are PLHV2-18350 models.
They are more expensive though, come with two rechargeable batteries and charger. I do have them on rifles at the moment.- 1

A tip for cleaning the pistons.
Soak them in Motorcraft carburetor cleaner. The liquid, not the spray. The carbon is dissolved in a few hours, wipes clean with a paper towel.

it’s a piston driven gun, not sure how close it resembles ARGO
Their stock choice may have been import driven.

I think you will also need the tube as your tube is different. I hope StrangerDanger will hop in here and confirm or correct me if I have given incorrect info

Best to contact Scalarworks. There should have been three small bags with the mounting hardware marked A,B and C.
My recently purchased mount came with the three sets

Yes, it can

That is an awesome plate.......I may need one as well

I love the adjustable stock on my AR but it just feels wrong on a shotgun. I guess too many years of using an 870 ruined me and anything else feels “off”.
All my years of shooting the M16/AR has pushed me toward pistol grips. Except my 870, have a MagPul on it. Forgot about the Browning BPS, it’s has the “English stock” on it

I’m really not a fam of the field stocks, I prefer the collapsible
But, something about the NP3 finish just makes your M4 pop with the field stock, love it!

And the collapsible stock received and even installed

GunBroker can be a nightmare.
Many dishonest sellers there now and scammers are multiplying like rabbits.

You’re fine....there are other opinions on what works best.

I also suggest gunsocks a golden rod in the safe, and a meter monitor himidity

Forgot to add.
The very first think I would try would be Kano Kroil. Spray it on, keep the barrel wet by placing paper towels over it and wetting them. Let this sit overnight. Then use a toothbrush to remove corrosion.
If this doesn’t work, replace the toothbrush with STAINLESS steel wool. I would not use steel wool as the carbon steel pits can get lodged and they rust easily, creating an even bigger issue.

Look like the onset of rust/pits. Heat, humidity and ocean air, bad combination. Weapons should be oiled quarterly at a minimum.
When I lived in Miami I did that. Guns in silicone impregnated gunsocks, safe has a large GoldenRod, and all wiped and lightly oiled quarterly.

It’s very sad, because they really do have some innovative product in the marketplace.
