Yes,
That is a Briley charging handle, it came with the Supersport Performance shop version. One thing that I did not mention about this charging handle is that the red part is a screw in piece. And during shooting, this also become loose. I used blue loctite on it to hold it in place, and it appears to work so far. But I'm disappointing in the quality of the parts, especially for a 2.8k gun... The charging handle coming loose is a easy fix that I didn't bother to post on this forum.
On a side note, for public knowledge, while the bolt for the Supersport and M4 (two guns that I have) look similar, they are NOT interchangeable. M4 uses the ARGO system while Supersport (and majority of Benelli shotguns) uses Inertia Driven system. The inner mechanism for the is also different.
Really great looking setup. I especially like the RED charging handle.I am in the market for a new handle for my M1 and can't decide what one to go with. I have Nordic components on it now and have thought of getting the BFB Handle that they sell, but I like a bit of color every now and again too. I wouldn't mind a stainless finished one or even something like the one you have.
How has it worked out for you? Do you have any complaints at all on the bolt handle? That is a Briley charging handle isn't it? If not, please let me know what it is as I'd like to look into getting one.
Thanks

Just an update. It took me two phone calls to Benelli customer support explaining the situation. I also explained to them that even though I'm not a gun smith, changing bolt release lever and the bolt release button is something that I've done before (on my M4) and that it is not difficult. The first representative is reluctant to send the replacement units, and ask me to send the entire gun in. I'm not willing to do that as it takes time, and headache. The second customer support rep, after seeing the disassembled parts, agreed to ship the replacement part over. Maybe I'll receive it in two weeks.

Do you guys know if the latch mechanism is similar to that of GG&G bolt release button? I've installed the aftermarket one for my M4, and it was easy. If the mechanism is similar, then installing this on the supersport would be easy as well.
I've already called Benelli, and they kept stressing that the entire gun needs to be send back. I'm really not looking forward to doing this, as it takes time, and replacing the part is something that I've done before anyway. I just don't understand why they couldn't sent the replacement part...
-
I was wondering if anyone else have this issue before (see attached picture).
I was shooting 5 stand with my friends today when I realized that my bolt release was gone, only to find it was on the floor. It appears that the bolt release was sheered off on the inside (poor quality??) I don't remember bumping into anything.
Have anyone have this issue? I'd imagine when I pay for a fairly expensive shotgun, I get quality in return...
P.S. not to mention that the bolt handle from briley was unscrewing, so I had to put loctite on the threads.
P.S.S same thing goes for the mid bead unscrewing, also loctite on it...
was someone on the quality team falling asleep??

the gun is new. the gas piston rod was clean.
If its new, the piston rod should move freely as you described. Usually, when there is carbon buildup, it'll be difficult to remove the pistons. Make sure the pistons/piston rods are clean, and make sure both piston rods are able to traverse in either left or right slot.
If it doesn't do that, I suggest contacting customer service.

Embrace the recoil. You have two options really.
1) muzzle break, I got one from http://www.choketube.com/choke-tube-product-details.php?Benelli-Mobil-Choke-Tubes&mf=3 But based on my experience, that's more for look, and I couldn't tell much difference between with and without.
2) replace the factory shoulder pad with something better/softer.
-
If the gun is new, make sure you wipe it clean, new guns sometimes have factory chips/turnings. Afterwards, drip it in oil.
If the gun was used, make sure you clean the gun, especially the two gas piston, the two rod should be able to freely move, screw it out and clean the piston rod tube like if you would cleaning 9mm/.45, lots of carbon builds up there, even more so than the main gun barrel.
When you said thta you had to hammer out the gas piston rod, is it dirty after you hammer it out? is it clean?
-
size small fits perfect over the factory pad
From your experience, does the small size slip-on pad move from side to side, or is it sturdy?
-
Send ADCO an email and ask them if they could find a way to adapt the plate to work with your stock. It shouldn't cost too much if they can/willing and you might mention there's probably a market for a half-dozen or dozen more at least
I will try that.
A side note, why doesn't limbsaver just make the stock work with benelli m4 instead of having this complicated thrid party adapter?
-
EOTech and Aimpoint, seems very expansive. I slapped on Truglo Trubrite and it works fine.
-
The noveske plate 'doesn't work' on the c stock because you can't fully collapse the stock with it. When collapsed, the recoil spring tube extends into the oem pad slightly and the noveske plate prevents this from happening. If you don't mind not being able to fully collapse the stock, it will work.
Which means that if one have a collapsible-stock, there is no limbsaver that will fit since the adapter does not fully function?
-
Lol, now I'm even more confused. The reason why I'd like to get limbsaver 10810 is because it seems that it can reduce the recoil a bit more, perhaps with the newer design. So if it also fits, then my plan is to buy that.
-
That's good and all, but will 10810 fit with the adapter?
-
Hello all,
I'm thinking of replacing the stock buttpad on the stock with limbsaver, I went to limbsaver website and I was wondering model 10810 will fit on the M4.
Thanks
edit: meant to type c-stock in the title.

Negative. Google "plastic wad residue". Welcome to shotgunning.
You are correct sir, thank you for the advice.
-
I'll try to take a better picture later today using a better camera, but this picture was taken after I cleaned the gun. I would suspect that plastic reside couldn't stick to the sides since the next shot would no doubt melt it?
-
Hello all,
This may be a newbie question, since this is the first shotgun I own. But when I'm cleaning my Benelli m4, I looked inside the bore, and there are bunch of scratches towards the chamber, is that normal? it smooths out towards the muzzle. When I first got this gun, it was smooth all the way.
I've attached a cellphone picture for reference.

AVA is a nice mount, but for those that would like to mount a very specific weapon light, on a very specific side of the gun, guess we're out of luck until AVA decide to make additional options.
-
I'm also in the process of finding the mount for my Benelli M4. But even with the available options, I'm still not quiet satasified.
For example.
I like the BLAM4 mount for its size and convenience and simplicity. However, I'm worry about the sturdiness, since it only grabs onto one location. I'm also a bit worry about how it copes with recoil with the light mounted.
I've also look at the AVA mount, it looks nice, and have lots of contact points with the shotgun, however I'm interested on mounting streamlight tlr1- hl, which means I have to mount it on the accessory rail, making the scope mount unnecessary. I was hoping that AVA can make/adjust the mount so there are two accessory rails.
I'm not aware of any other options, does anyone have any recommendations?
Chokes for Performance Shop SuperSport, Standard SuperSport, and Original Vinci
in Benelli

Sorry for resurrecting zombie thread, but it appears that this question was never answered.
I also have a 12 ga Performance Shop SupertSport, it also came with five default choke, as shown inhttp://www.benelliusa.com/shop/chokes-wrenches/crior-extended-chrome.
However, I believe the regular SuperSport version did not have Briley backbore to .733, where as the performance shop have the backbore. You should be able to tell if it is backbore by looking at the barrel.
Now. you can probably still use the existing five chokes on a backbore shotgun, but there will be an issue. I will attempt to illustrate.
regular barrel ID (0.72 I made this up for the purpose of illustration, as I don't know what the regular version barrel ID is.) start of regular choke ID (0.72)
Supersport barrel ID (0.733 notice it is backbored, metal was removed from the inside of the barrel, thus increasing the inner diameter).
start of regular choke (0.72), as you can see, there is a disconnect, such that bbs will have a sudden transition.
This is probably why you want to use the correct choke. If you are ordering aftermarket, such as from Briley, make sure you've mention that you are using performance center, that way they'll know the bore ID is 0.733.
