That’s good news. I’m sure I messed up by having the bolt already dropped before sliding the barrel back in place. ?♂️

Yeah, I’m sure it’s not grease. I got it from sliding the barrel back in place into the receiver. I didn’t notice it until I took it apart again to place a hand guard.

Hey Benelli fam, I’m planning to finally shoot my new M4 for the first time in a couple of days. In preparation, I disassembled and CLP’d as instructed. Assembling things back in place, I noticed I scratched the inside of the receiver/ejection port. It’s surface level..but I just want to know if this is a common/“normal wear and tear” scratch or if I did something wrong and should prevent it from happening again. This is my first firearm so I’m pretty bummed I already made “character” marks without actually using it yet. I know it’s going to be put to work but just want to know if I should be protecting it better, if it needs to be treated or repaired, or to not worry about it at all. Any tips and advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello Benelli Family, I recently picked up my first firearm, a Benelli M4. Its sole purpose is for home defense and enjoying some time at the range. I haven't taken it to the range just yet since I'm confused on a few things. Based on what I've been researching, there's a bit of a "break in" period and that the M4 comes standard with a modified choke. With that being said, I just have a few questions. 1) Any suggestions on which type of ammo I should start with selective to a modified choke? Target Rounds? Bird? Buck? Slugs? 2) For home defense and indoor/outdoor range, would you find it necessary to purchase a set of different chokes? 3) Should I consider a Trulock Tactical Choke instead or something similar? Apparently I wouldn't have to worry about switching chokes when cycling buckshot to rifled slugs. This is kind of a whole new world for me to explore, so I apologize if I come off ignorant. Safety is key, and I'd like to learn and do this correct. I'd really appreciate the help! Thanks! ?
