Hey, thanks again! I'll give them a try and report back.

Hi, thanks for the reply! Yeah my M3 was brand new only 2 years ago, and I saw your same post on another site, and have followed up on the Super Nova stock 61198, but like everything else Benelli-OUT-OF-STOCK is all we see. Any other known alternatives...? ? ?

Okay, so I search this Benelli forum here for "M3" and that returns nothing? Zero? Zip? NADA...? ? ? (((((00))))) As my header says, M3 convertible butt stock options, is what I've been scouring the web for more than a couple of days now and all I get are sites supposedly SELLING Benelli M3 field stocks--- IN STOCK--- only to enter all my buyer info and WAAAAANK~!!! Out of Stock appears. So to the folks here who've discovered, as I have, that the Benelli 60516 field stock is not only no longer available anywhere on this planet Earth, but, to the best of my knowledge, there are also no known stocks that might replace it either, within the confines of our entire universe. Same experience? Question--- has anyone here found an option for a field stock to replace the pistol stock for the M3 Convertible, or not? Thank you.

We solved the problem thanks to your suggestion, thanks for taking the time, much appreciated! Regards

Thanks for the reply, glad to hear your problem was mostly solved. I'm just now going to the range (see my previous post on this thread about loading & snap-caps) to try out a variety of loads I bought so will report on 00buck when I get back. Regards

Yep, and sounds like I've got newbie egg all over my face! (lol!) My Ignorance couldn't be helped: bought the gun online and as it was advertised as 5-rnd mag, I just assumed it was. Limiter, huh? You mean that long stick-thingy? DOAH! I found that in my search of Benelli Parts and sure enough, there it was in my magazine! Thanks for your input, Street! Regards~! S

Curious, did you solve this problem? Warranty return. I'm sure other M3 owners, like myself, would want to know how, or if you solved this cycling prob.

Thanks, it's a factory stock 5-rnd tube and there's nothing inside the tube but a spring and cap. Go fish...???

So did you solve this cycling problem? Reason I ask is I just bought a brand new M3, online, and the FFL who received it also assembled the shotgun. I was okay with that, I guess. Since then, I have read the manual and bought a nice variety different snap-caps to practice loading, etc.,. but have not fired the gun on a range yet. Problem I have is I can only load TWO snap-caps in the mag-tube--- no matter the size of round--- it only loads two, a third won't go. So I'm wondering if the FFL put something together wrong or maybe I have a warranty problem. Opinions would be appreciated. Anybody?
