I'll track down a second M3 and do the deed. I've tried going through some contacts in Europe (embassies and etc.), but no luck. There's a few places between Virginia and here (GA) that will be able to handle the barrel work: http://www.benellidefense.it/products/m3-185 Got my eyes on a S.Co Salvo as well, especially since the wait times are getting "shorter"...
-
Also, why was the M3 initially (and is still to this day) released with a 19.75" barrel and not the standard 18.5" bbl?
-
...or would it be more feasible to buy a new/like-new M3 LE Tactical, buy (& wait for) a tax stamp for an SBS, install the short +2 mag tube ext., then have the barrel cut the barrel cut down? 🤔🤔🤔

AIRB0RNE6176 started following Benelli M4 -- Receiver Extension Removal/Reinstallation Guide , Benelli muiti rail , M3 Entry SBS: a bridge too far...? and 1 other

Still available? THX

Question for you Benefactors of Benelli Knowledge... Was there ever a final consensus about obtaining the M3 Entry 5+1 SBS w/ 14.5" barrel and c-stock? (link: http://www.benellidefense.it/products/m3-145-telescopic-stock ) Even just the shorter barrel would be something (w/ proper stamp first, of course...). See pics below. I saw some traffic on a different forum some years ago but nothing else ever since. Are these only "overseas" to MIL/LE, or has someone here stateside cracked the code to legally track down and own one of these unobtainium scatter guns? Any knowledge or information would be great. THX!

Why would you rate the new factory (OEM) multi rail over the B&T quad rail? The OEM requires the proprietary pic rail sections, whereas the B&T doesn't. Of course, this is only an option IF the B&T isn't as much of a PITA as it seems to be for some. Would you also run with the OEM multi rail over the Agency Arms rail on a 2020 M4 for top barrel & receiver coverage? THX

Reviving an old topic, so apologies in advance... I just received one of these B&T Quad Rails from MGW (part #BT-211510, link: https://bt-parts.com/bt-211510-b-t-handguard-for-benelli-m4-super-90/#description) to see how it will fare replacing a rail from Agency Arms MLOK Rail (https://www.agencyarms.com/benelli-m4-compatible-mlok-handguard) on my M4 H2O from 2020 . The only reason for this rail swap is to see if the B&T will be better covering the top of the barrel near the receiver while providing decent mounting points for a light and etc., as the Agency Arms is "open" at the top when mounted and is still hot w/ gloves. The B&T website for the quad rail states: " *Please note, due to possible revisions that have been implemented to the Benelli M4 Super 90, your firearm may require hand fitting for proper function depending on the specific revision you currently own. " I've got a new M4 Entry (w/ 2024 mfg date) in the penalty box, and I'm willing to try this B&T quad rail out on it to see what are the potential issues some shooters are having. The "new" Benelli OEM quad rail looks nice, but I'd rather have the more actual/useable space on the B&T quad rail if I can get it to work properly. If so, I'm purchasing another B&T to have two for my M4's and I'll be parting ways with the Agency Arms M-LOK rail as well as the Benelli OEM quad rail soon. More to follow...

Got it, many thanks! (I forgot to look at the separate schematic for stocks... I need some TACO's) Once again, those items "should" be able to be reused from what's already on the new M4... -

One last thing... Does anyone know what the M4 Telescoping Stock Plate is (# 70080)? I don't see it on the schematics, but I do see them listed on FFT and MGW: https://freedomfightertactical.com/products/70080-benelli-m4-oem-plate?_pos=1&_sid=a25f08652&_ss=r https://www.midwestgunworks.com/page/mgwi/prod/70080 THX! -

OK, CONFIRMED: All of the internal parts of the 5-Position Tube Assembly (# 70135) are the exact same as the internal parts of the older/previous 3-Position Tube Assembly (# 70043). Verified by two (2) unit armorers and Benelli C.S. today. This means that I can use the extra OEM M4 Collapsible Stock (# 70085) I have already on the new M4 Entry if I can find a plain 3-Position Tube itself (# 70130). I know the newer LE M4's may have a "better" collapsible stock w/ 5 positions and are now common with LE M3's and SuperNova's, but I like & prefer the classic "look" for the original M4 c-stock. I do see some aftermarket 6-Position tubes out there, but I've yet to hear or see anything on them working out with the older c-stock parts... -

I'm tempted to find out by ordering everything, or I can just wait for them to come back in-stock at MGW. Especially since the M4 Entry I just purchased (# 11729) is in the penalty box pending e-form stamp. FFT's # 70043 are $400+ currently... -

Resurrection... Do we know if the internal parts of a "European" Benelli OEM M4 Recoil Spring Tube Assembly (# 70135) will fit & function properly inside an "American" Benelli OEM M4 Recoil Spring Tube (# 70130)? I'm trying to "create" a full-up 3 position OEM M4 Recoil Spring Tube Assembly (# 70043) but having trouble finding the separate specific parts to mount an "American" OEM M4 Collapsible Stock (# 70085). THX in advance for the help / sanity check. -
Factory Benelli M4 Picatinny Multirail Handguard?!
AIRB0RNE6176 replied to ninjajim4's topic in Benelli
One thing's for sure about the Mark 23 (& the D.E.) is that you've gotta down a "Can of Man" (or two) to handle them. Definitely not for "delicate" hands or "weak" shooters, especially shooting .45 Super regularly. I've got a spare slide inbound for my Mark 23 to receive a direct milling job for an Acro P-2. Should be quite a beast... -
Not sure if I've already posted these, but here's what I've got set up for the Mrs. when she feels the need for running mini/shorty shells. She's got both the M&P12 and I got her the 12ga Shockwave as a gift this year (and added a "spike")... The Tac-13 is my "Thumper" that I wish could properly cycle the same mini's but it does just fine with the low recoil shells and has since been SBS'd (no "spike" however... yet).
