    Benelli has as far as i can tell their own multi rail fore grip. http://www.benellidefence.it/products/m4-185

    I have sent an email to benelli Italy regarding where i can buy it but for 2 weeks NO response from them.And i cant find it anywhere.(in the webpage they also have the M4 with enlarged charging handle and bolt release,also seems like they are benelli made,and the buttstock seems like one from the Nova with 5 different lenght adjustments)

    Sorry for OT

    Interesting, gives me a reason to visit the Benelli Defense booth at SHOT this year.

    I have had my B&T Benelli fore grip installed for several years and find the quad rail to be very effective, functional, and comfortable. It is an all aluminum construction, far superior to the Sure Fire M-80. You can  install rubber rail inserts along all un-used open areas of the rail making it very comfortable. There are not many options for fore grips for the Benelli M-4. I have found this to be far superior in design in comparison to the Sure Fire M-80 which has rubber along the barrel and the Argo system pistons. I have a previous article on the malfunction that Sure Fire took responsibility for on their poor design regarding my Sure Fire M-80. The extreme heat from the barrel  would disfigure the rubber along the Argo System  causing the pistons to come in contact with the deformed rubber. The weapon would malfunction under rapid fire using Sabo slugs. When I contacted Sure Fire I was told to send M-80 to their research dept. where they took full responsibility for the defective product. They sent me a new M-80 from remaining new old stock. I'm assuming that's one reason among several why Sure Fire stopped production of the M-80. I have cycled  up to 250 Sabo slugs in any given day, rapid fire with the B&T, without 1 malfunction.

    Are you sure they stopped making the M-80?  My understanding is Benelli Defense had an exclusive with SureFire and all the M-80's were going on the LE purchased weapons.

    So I bought a M4 sbs and the transfer paperwork that came with it says that the manufacturer is Beretta.  My dealer says that Beretta owns benelli. Just wonder if this is correct and anyone else that has a M4 sbs and the manufacturer is also listed as Beratta. Thanks    

    Where did you find a M4 SBS?

    I have that RMR mount so the rail solutions are no-go.

    Anyone have any idea on the long-term use of velcro sidesaddle systems? What's the current consensus on the best sidesaddle, and best velcro backing?

     

    I'm concerned about rust under the velcro, and also in pulling off any of the parkerizing finish. . . .

    Scalarworks RMR mount?

    Full length magazine tube
    GG&G bolt release
    IWC Light Mount
    Tactical light - Elzetta or Streamlight for instance
    Red dot sight with QD mount - SIG Romeo 5

    I prefer my tactical lights to have a QD mount so it can be removed quickly, used by hand or quickly attached to another weapon.

    That's why I but LaRues with a throw lever.

    Actually it has, but at my end not the other.  Someone pointed out to me that being in the distribution of firearm parts, particularly triggers and hammers, incurs liability.  At the $240 sale price, it wasn’t worth the risk.  The items are no longer for sale, but I am unable to edit the original post and thread title.

    my apologies to the gentlemen who contacted me, I really did not wish to back out from the deal, but this was too serious a matter to go forward with the transaction.

    Matt

    You are not distributing firearm parts.  ou are conducting a private sale to some one old enough to own a shotgun.

    Like DC Dog said, was the individual a Lawyer? or just someone who stayed at a Holiday Inn Express ?

    This looks much more interesting as an option to mount lights, etc. than the existing options and evidently no set screws are necessary to secure it in place like the Hayl Rail...  8" and 11" models will be available.

    I went ahead and placed a pre-order for an 11"...

    Will buy Surefire M80 for Benelli M4. What will it take to make you sell one? :)

    You may want to consider staying away from the Surefire M80 Rail. The rubber comes in contact the Argo system pistons causing failure to eject under rapid fire. Under single shot fire you will have no problem. Most ranges will not authorize rapid fire. You would never know there was a problem. I was able to find a range that authorizes rapid fire and that is when I realized there was a problem. You could see where the rubber was melting. I sent it back to Surefire. It was determined the problem was on their side . Even know they don't manufacture them any longer they had a few left in stock and sent a new one, no charge. I have since sold it unopened for $300.00 which is a fair price. I went with the B&T Quad Rail which is all aluminum. I have fired at least 500 rounds rapid fire with out one failure. There have been other articles in the past addressing the same problem with the Surefire M80. I hope this helps.

    Haven't had any issues with mine.

    FWIW I was at SHOT Show, and Beretta Defense sells LEO M-4's with the Surefire fore end as standard equipment.

    I talked to the Surefire rep, and he says they are limiting sales to the LEO modls for now.

  8. Resurrecting a long dead thread.

     

    It took a couple of e-mails, but I finally got a replacement stock. Used the "brail" method to replace the peeling stock as the original comes assembled, and ATI did not send any instructions (like screw sizes/types), but I removed and replaced the old stock.

     

    Almost 3 years and not too many rounds later, the ATI hasn't started peeling. The inability to get a good tight mount is my biggest grip (the grip shakes a bit).

     

    On a side note: looks like ATI stopped making Benelli parts. I was doing some research and jumped on their website to see what new stuff they had. For grins I tried to find Benelli stuff with no luck, so I guess we have one less after market manufacturer to complain about.

  9. Hi Guys,

     

    Are there options to add a side saddle while using a SYNC/RMR combo?

     

    Or a RMR with another mount that would allow that?

     

    carved out part of a mesa side saddle, cut my Scalarworks RMR mount and use them both on my M4 (think I have pics in the Benelli Optic Rail Thread).
