    I'd get a cheap plastic case from like Big 5, then remove the bolt handle from the shotgun and pack it in its own padded bag. The case should be around 40 dollars these days. I'd then get a box and cut it down to fit pretty close to the case.

    I like this idea a lot, thanks SD. 

  2. Any experience or guidance to offer regarding box to use (their warranty page recommends using the factory box, the guy at Bennell recommends against it), how to wrap/protect the barrel & receiver separately, best carrier to use, etc.?

    Thanks in advance.

    The detents on the Benelli M4 are not completely consistent.  Which can cause problems at times, which does not happen often in my experience.  Unfortunately this is how the Benelli m4 is.  Kind of hit and miss, (Much more hit than miss).

    Variances are a reality any manufacturing environment. Got a couple additional ideas, the Rx charging handle is otherwise too nice for me to just put it in a drawer with the others.

    That’s a bummer. My RX one is awesome. Maybe my FFT would work in your BCG lol it didn’t in mine.

    Talking with Robb on the side about the Rx handle. I think this is the 4th order I’ve placed from him, never been anything but completely satisfied. Hoping to understand why this different retention in mine even if it ends up being something uncontrollable.

    Did you get the titanium one? Trying to turn it clockwise (when facing it) is near impossible for me. Spinning counter clockwise takes a good bit of effort. 

    Yeah, ordered this one. I push it into the BCG until it stops then rotate it to match a detent to the detent ball. 

    I don’t have a gauge that can measure the effort to spin mine, but I threw the stock one back in as a baseline and the Rx one spins as easily if not more easily. 

  6. Mine arrived today, had time to throw it on and manipulate it a bunch.

    @SuzukiGS750EZ Your BCG detent ball & spring may be different/stronger than mine but the RX Arms charging handle spins more easily for me. Once disengaged from the detent it pulls out effortlessly. 

    It’s impossible to pull out while the detent is engaged, but with gloves on it’s not hard to imagine getting spun accidentally while charging and disappearing.

    Curious why the difference.

    That said, the knurling, length and diameter are amazing in hand.

    I ordered an RX. Hoping it’s the ticket. I also bought the titanium one which I’m hoping with less diameter is less rotation. And it’s titanium!

    Just placed an order for one also, appreciate you asking the question.

    I’m really not sure. 
    no real way to understand when a spring will fail. Over the years, with different shotguns, the mag tube springs are all I remember changing 

    Got it, thank you. 

    Shot a note to Benelli CS asking, will share whatever I get back for anyone else who might look for this info later.

    Trigger Springs, at least coil springs in this case, loose tension from cyclic rate, not compression.

    Even in the Marine manual, I’ve never seen a replacement time change on springs 

    Helpful, thank you. 

    So when one breaks would be a fair plan. 

  10. I am familiar with rebuild guidelines- specifically expected spring life and on what timelines to replace them- of my Glock firearms and am curious what intervals either Benelli or this group recommends to replace the various springs of the M4. 

    For example, I keep my M4 fully loaded and in Condition 1 in the wall safe. At what age should I think about replacing the mag spring? Replacing the various trigger pack springs?

    Any other component of the M4 have a finite life span in terms of age vs round count?

  11. Marks on your M4 are like scars on people… dead sexy. Word to the wise though, loctite the sh*t out of the hardware as it otherwise loosens with use.

    Earl @ IWC is a good dude, engage him here with your questions/concerns and I guarantee you wont be disappointed: [email protected]

  12. Thanks for the info, @Sukhoi_fan.

    For the reasons you listed I’ve been thinking about trying out an Esstac set-up on my M4. 

    Of the various sizes available, I get that round count will be up to the individual purchaser but, is there a max size that fits in the logical location on the M4 (ex.- Don’t buy larger than 5-round because the 6&7-round cards are too long to reasonably fit on the receiver)?

  13. Purchased this set-up here several months ago, installed it on my M1014 and discovered the weapon no longer fits in my wall safe in this config.

    Took some time to decide whether to keep the gear (which fits my body geometry terrifically) and replace the wall safe or revert to my previous hand guards/IWC set up, decided against replacing the wall safe. These items are back up for grabs.

    Offering for what I paid, gear in exact condition received.

    $420 TYD, prefer PP G&S, would take USMO if buyer prefers that.

    Selling as set only for now.

    *using previous posting pics because, well, it still looks the same

  14. I live in a residential neighborhood of moderate density but occasionally have a need for a vermin solution. 

    Anyone able to recommend an air rifle of high quality & dependable accuracy, while also quiet?
