A wave washer is probably the best option IMO. Any rough idea on cost or timeline till release? Really looks sharp!

That's not OEM, I've always heard it called a "bolt release tab". https://rxarms.com/products/benelli-m4-parts-and-accessories/benelli-m4-bolt-release-tab/

As Sly Stone put it, "different strokes for different folks". Some may desire one over the other but I don't think you could go wrong with either, or both.

Look at it as an opportunity to practice loading on the fly like you'll need to do in a SHTF situation. Shoot a few then load a few quickly. Get in that habit because in an emergency the last thing you'll want is an empty shotgun.

I bought a beautiful M4 off here so I would say yes as long as you follow Federal law, i.e. ship it to an FFL for pickup.

That is a darn good idea, hack the controller signal with a more powerful transmitter that is closer, send it back "home" with its grenade payload. 😆

When I was in the Cavalry we'd practice shooting at styro RC planes and I can tell you hitting a flying target that small is very difficult, even with MG's. 00 buckshot might your best option assuming it's close enough; beyond that, a well aimed rifle.

Nice family! Now I feel deprived, I only have 4... 🥲

I am out of town at the moment but here's 2 I took a few years ago. I cerekoted it "bazooka green". The 2nd one is showing the top. This is the long one, the exact length escapes me at the moment.

Totally agree, I have both sizes. fits snug, m-lok compatible and acts as a heat shield.

Yes I know, I have 3 and they work great. The reason for the inquiry I spelled out in my 2nd post i.e. someone trying to tell me the tube was "defective" if 7 rounds of any make wouldn't fit. I tried searching but couldn't find any thread on it though I know I've seen it at least once.

Correct, the reason I ask is I mentioned that on another forum and someone claimed if I couldn't fit 7 rounds of ANY manufacture in the tube it was defective (lol). Said he's been "working on guns for 50 years" and had never seen that. Apparently he's never noticed shotshells can vary in length between manufacturers either so I wanted feedback here, seems dubious.

Just curious, anyone else ever notice the 7th round of some brands of shells will not fit in the M4 tube?

I have the ramped A&S trigger housing on 2 of my M-4's. The feed ramp or "scallop" is very nice and really does help loading especially when you're not looking at it, i.e right side up. Place the shell anywhere on the ramp and it's guided right in. If you're going to get an aluminum housing I'd recommend that one.
