I like the Specter Gear Recon 2 sling made for the Benelli shotguns. Currently on sale for $22.50. Also, a padded sling pad is available for comfort.

I keep thinking the new H2 with the 6 MOA dot would be a great Aimpoint optic on the Scalarworks SYNC 2 mount. I wish it wasn't so expensive ($800 plus by the time tax is added to it).

Sync mount from them as an 01 or 02? THX
Sync 02 AKA SW1200.
Might not allow co-witness with the Holosun. It certainly does not with my Holosun HS515GM. The HS515GM is a smidge too tall and obscures the iron sight.
It's a major bummer as I'm really fond of that Holosun sight because of the circle and dot reticle for shotgun use.

The 7 round card is nice, but 7 extra rounds is pretty heavy.
I'll be running the 5 round card on my M1 and the 6 round on my M4. The good news is that one can always cut down to one or two spare rounds only on the card.

I've got one Esstac 5 round card mounted. Just bought a 6 round VangComp card to try as it's supposedly a better piece. We'll see.

Try it with two cr123s, also. Im curious if battery on battery will create issue.
Will do. I'll try both and report back.

Curious if you've seen this with any lights (battery issues).
I plan on testing my Surefire Scout light with a Malkoff head for this on my M4 Benelli with an Orbtronic 16650 battery. I'm adding Battery Bumper o-rings from Malkoff to see if that eliminates the problem.

Bought a tube from Dave last month and it was perfect. Two of my friends did too. Happy customers here.

I will check dreamplastic definitely today, but any of you ever use or used Red Dot Optics Cover for any reasons?
I use a Dream Plastics cover on a 508T. Keeps it from getting dusty and finger prints. I use a ScopeCoat on an Aimpoint for the very same reason.

I spent some time researching this and found that most recommend using an improved cylinder or less (cylinder) for slugs. Many mentioned that while a light modified choke can be used, it significantly shifted the point of impact at 50 yards or more. The modified choke that's installed from the factory is NOT recommended for use with slugs.

I like the Dream Plastics covers too. Made of neoprene.

Does your stock only have the sling attachment on the left side?
If it's a regular Benelli stock with the attachments on both sides, the 10403 should be the correct one. I don't believe the AirTech option is available for that stock so the 10403 is the only option.

Waiting for a Mesa Tactical Urbino M4 stock and a Scalarworks SYNC Aimpoint mount. Thinking seriously about ordering a CC Ti tube and forgetting about it until I get the call.

Hi,
New guy here but a Benelli fan since the late '90s (HK import M1 Super 90).
Just bought a new M4 (11707) and I'm going to buy a Mesa Tactical Urbino stock with Limbsaver pad for it. I'm going to use a Scalarworks SYNC mount and an Aimpoint H1 red dot on it. I'm trying to figure out if I need the Urbino stock with the riser or if the comb height is tall enough on the regular Urbino stock for the correct sight picture thru the Aimpoint?
I appreciate all the great info here and I've compiled a list of upgrades after reading a lot here. 7 shot tube on order along with US made follower and Wolffspring, Briley chokes, IWC light mount for a Surefire Scout.

Welcome! Wealth of info here, enjoy cruising the threads!
I can't speak for the SRO completely but with the Mesa with pic rail and just about any type of low mount on the SRO, I bet your iron sights will not be very useable. I bet they will just be a hair too short (mount and SRO too tall) to be ale to see through them.
I tried a Holosun Airmpoint T-1 clone on an ADM QD low mount on my factory pic rail and found it worked okay, but I lost my iron sights and it just felt like the optic sat too tall. I ended up with the Holosun in a Scalarworks mount and am very pleased with it. Irons are useable, optic sits low enough that it does not feel like it is gonna snag everything.
Something to consider and think about is what type of stock you are running too. If you are using a collapsible stock, your site picture will be different than if you are running a fixed stock.
@bigdog02Are you using the OE stock or a Mesa Tactical stock with the riser? I'm looking at the Scalarworks mount and an Aimpoint Micro and I'm trying to figure out if I need the riser or the regular stock will work with the optic.
Co-witness mount on Benelli's for H1 / T1 / H2 /T2 footprint...?

I'm running a Holosun HS515GM currently. I like the circle/dot reticle a LOT, however the sight is taller than the Aim Micro sight so it does not allow me to use the iron sights. I'd recommend the Aimpoint Micro (I think the 6 MOA H2 is best one for a shotgun) unless you're OK with the iron sights not being usable.
