I use A-zoom, they seem to work fine and they are CLEARLY not live rounds.

Looks good!

I'd love to snatch this up but, right now, I'm scared what I'm going to owe in taxes and don't want to over extend myself. If you still have it in a month or two let me know.

Depending on the fore end they also act as a heat shield, the Briley especially, wraps nearly all the way around the barrel. I have, on mine, a quick-release sling mount, a light and a pressure pad for it, but the heat shielding is what I originally got it for.

Let us know how it goes!

99% certain those will run reliably but I have not run that EXACT brand.

I have a Briley fore end on my M4 but I have a couple of Mossberg's with heat shields as pictured. The problem with them IMO is they are a pain to get off to oil the barrel and I always worry about rust forming under them that I wouldn't notice. I solved that problem for me by Cerakoting those guns. The Briley is a much better option than a standard heat shield and it is fairly easy to remove using no tools. It does nearly enclose the entire barrel so heat isn't a problem.

Have you tried screwing on the mag tube cap? On mine, the tolerances are so tight that is the only way I can get mine to seat fully.

Yes, it does make sense after watching the vids, thanks Don!

$95! That is one pricey sling!

Darn good question, wondered that myself but I just went with it.

Pull-troughs are easiest for carry in the field. https://otistec.com/gauge-patriot-gun-cleaning-kit/

I run mine as much underneath as I can to avoid "barrel shadow" with a pressure pad so I don't have to fumble searching for the on button. YMMV

The case is nice, everything else can be gotten at Walmart. The M4 doesn't need anything that any other shotgun wouldn't use.

Scotch is good but I prefer bourbon...

Yes briley

Looks great! I swear by my m-lok fore end. Does that red dot co-witness?

The lube is extra but a discount will be applied if you supply dinner and a movie first.

Yes, they will work just fine, the velcro doesn't have to be perfectly straight, flat or aligned. I always cut the sticky "wool" part to fit the receiver and when the "hook" is slapped on with shells it holds quite well.

That's fine but I won't be certain till I get back home tonight

I replaced mine with an A&S trigger guard so, yes, I have one. Pretty sure it's aluminum, it's the 11715 model, I'll have to double check it when I get back tonight.

My New Years resolution is to put more rounds downrange.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder mi amigo. As I said, it's part of the history of the gun.

FYI, GG&G has a limited number of bolt release pads for Benelli M 1-4's back in stock. M 1-3 https://www.gggaz.com/benelli-tactical-bolt-release-pad.html M 4 https://www.gggaz.com/benelli-m4-tactical-bolt-release-pad.html I have 1 on my M 4, it's easy to install and works well.

Your 1st shotgun and you're shooting 300 rounds in 2 days? That's awesome! For real, be sure and get a pic of your shoulder Monday, it'll be a wonderful keepsake.
