  1. I can vouch for the A&S product as being top notch. I have had great success with a FFT trigger/disconnector & Shootingsite hammer setup. If 922R compliance items are hard to come by, you can at least get a hammer here: https://shootingsight.com/product/benelli-hammer/

    RMR MOA?

    I listened to Stranger and went with 1MOA. It was great advice!

    RMRs

    I really enjoy my Scalarworks/ RMR combo. To me, I wanted a solid, low profile optic solution for the M4. Plus, I think it looks pretty bad ass.
  4. Those Arms Unlimited charging handles seem sweet. I just got mine. I really appreciate the extra finger real estate. All for ten bucks!
  5. That bike is beautiful! I was eyeballing one of the Xdiavels a while back. Good Stuff!
  6. Well I just ordered one too since the price was right. It's pretty hard to beat that price. I hope they're decent. Thanks for posting this.
  7. Nice. It has kind of a race gun/ tactic-cool look to it.
  8. Anyone have any pictures of the CF mag tube actually on a M4?
  9. I wish. I don't own a sport bike myself, but I wouldn't mind one. At this year's International Motorcycle Show Kawasaki showed their new "Z H2" which I instantly fell in love with. Its a more relaxed rider's triangle but the power plant is still supercharged! BRAAAAP BRAAAAP. I personally own a 2015 HD Softail Slim, which I've done a fair amount of work to. I just enjoy the classic lines of the bike.
  10. Glad to see that I'm not the only one with expensive taste in more than one hobby! LOL I right bikes too.
  11. I've never hired a gunsmith to do any extensive work...so I couldn't say accurately. What I can say is that it took my mechanically inclined self to hit it with a MAPP torch and got it off in under 5 minutes.
  12. @USMC249 more like a huge jump back from the past. LOL this thread is over two years old on the last comment! ?
  13. SUCCESS! Thanks for the encouragement everyone. Now I am part of Team Uber-Mag-Tube!
  14. LOL...yesterday's frustration resulted in the purchase of a decent bench vise and a MAPP torch! This s*** is about to get real!?
  15. Thanks Stranger Danger, valuable ideas right there, especially with trigger pins. LOL I'm tempted to look at the MAPP torch, but its like 70 bucks, plus the cost of a Craigslist Wilton vise...ugh!
  16. Well that's good to hear! I started to see mine smoking too. LOL I still have red marks on my palm from how hard I was gripping the tube last night. yikes!
  17. I purchased mine on the 15th of May and just received it in the mail last weekend. I did have to ask for the tracking number, so you might want to reach out. Aviation Ordinance huh? I thought I would escape all the IYAAYAS business lol.
  18. Well I finally got around to attempt what I thought would be an easy mag tube removal. Well long story short, the project didn't go as planned. As stated in some of the installation tutorials, the red thread locker is no joke. I tightened the M4's received to one of those Black and Decker work benches (crap idea btw) and used a heat gun. I applied heat primarily to the mag tube, which obviously transferred up the receiver, which got equally hot as well. I tried working it for an hour with this setup and only managed to loosen the OEM tube maybe half a turn to 3/4ths. My plan today is to pickup a bench vise, which should hold the receiver more firmly. Hopefully that is the key to victory! I feel like the crap B&D workbench didn't offer me a stable and solid enough platform to make all efforts in my favor. I'm thinking of grabbing an infrared thermometer too. Wish me luck lol!
  19. I just got my CC parkerized tube in the mail and I placed my order on or about May 15th.
  20. I'm running the A&S trigger guard. It's the bee's knees, though I would expect it to be for the given price. I have a hybrid trigger setup in my m4. I have a FFT trigger and Disconnector and I am using a ShootingSight hammer. https://shootingsight.com/product/benelli-hammer/. All the parts I'm using are top notch!
  21. Well....darn. I would have liked to take that off your hands!
  22. sweet! Was it worth the wait?
  23. Heck yea! I just got an email from CC saying that it "shipped" too. I couldn't find a tracking number though. Did you get a tracking number, or does it come later?
  24. I did something similar to my Harley softail. I had forgotten something in my building at work, and thought I would quickly run in and grab it. Well apparently "quickly" ended up meaning so quick that I forgot to throw down the kick stand. Lets just say, that I realized my mistake as soon as my bike continued to tip as I dismounted. That was quite embarrassing. It left a nice little scrap on my primary housing as well.
