SgtB.

still looking for a good red dot but its beautiful to be hold.

/thank you guys so much for all the great feedback. After considering all the pro's can con's I think I will keep it and blow some s*it up with it. I am some what of a compulsive shopper and I always get stuff way above what I need. It's better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it. again thank you so much for the feedback and I'll let you all know how it shoots once I bust that cherry. Wish me love at first shot.

Benelli M1014 Tactical American Flag engraved Limited Edition 12 gauge - and fully R922 compliant (if that is important) - Ghost Ring Iron Sights - Skeletonized 3 position adjustable Stock - L&E 7 Shot Mag Tube W/upgraded Spring - Large release bolt so it doesn't cover up the American Flag - Briley 3 Gun M-Lok Handguard 13’ - AnS Enhanced trigger guard - FFT Trigger upgrade w/Wolff springs - Briley extended carrier - RX Oversized Charging Handle & RX QD Sling Mount for adjustable stock. I spent so much time getting it upgraded I have yet to shoot it. Now that I am have come into a need for cash I am considering selling my "babe" however I am at a lost of knowing what's its value - I know that I've spent as much on the gun as I did for the gun in addition to time and labor in getting it upgraded by local armors. And I have all of the OEM parts to go with it just incase some desire to have them was a value and did I say NEVER FIRED! Real users = real experts so I wanted to ask you all your thoughts.

Did you not like that carbon fiber tube as I was thinking about getting one myself.

Hi there, I am a enthusiast to life and freedoms and in my pursuit to defend that; I buy stuff to protect myself. So I was told that Benelli M4 or the Beretta 1301 were to two best for home defense and bragging rights at the range. Well as you all know both are hard to find or pricey when you do (and why do some providers inflate their prices ridiculously high - rent is high enough) sorry my rant. So in my pursuit for the best I get a Benelli M4 10014vand a Beretta A300 Patrol. I also learned that both are owned by the same Italian company. Go figure! All in the family. My M4 is the 1014 and it also has a US Flag to the right of the bolt release - I know that the 1014 is the US Marines version but I have seen a few that didn't have one. And being a 1978 made Marine myself I am not liking the idea of using a oversized button that's going to cover it up in part of in whole. So my question is, does anyone know why this flag is there?

I just change mind our and OMG that little of a thing is a world of difference. Once you do you'll never go back. just say'n I felt they are a little over priced especially from brand name places but they are some priced in the 25 price points and as high up as you care to go. I paid 45 before and 67 after tax and shipping. I can't seem to include a pic - must be after hours. I'll try and include a picture of mine with the OEM and the new one.
