I took my M4 to the range and it worked fine. Really fun to shoot. Apparently the lack of a "click" per the instructions is not an issue. Thanks to all who replied.

Assembling my brand new Benelli M4, following the instructions in the Owner's Manual. Step 7: "With the barrel extension resting on the bolt head, and the bolt head fitting into the recess formed into the barrel extension, slip the barrel into receiver. A metallic click will indicate the barrel is correctly seated" I don't hear any clicking sound, but the barrel is flush with the receiver (see pic). I can pull the barrel away again with a moderate tug. Does this sound/look correct? It seems the fore-end fastening cap is what really keeps the barrel tight to the receiver. The bolt cycles fine, everything appears to be in order, I'm just concerned because I do not hear a metallic "click" per the instructions. Hope it's right cause I can't wait to shoot this baby.
