I have been in contact with Benelli CS team and they are sending me a new front cap even after I send a colored schematic showing what was happening. Either way it seems to not be too much of an issue and I don't usually my shotguns down every time but shot the course a couple times and between me and my girlfriend we ended up putting around 520 shells through it. Just from that heavy use I did want to see if things had improved by themselves. Also I thought about using a screw driver/ punch to try and move the alignment ring slightly as it looks to have some wiggle room. But all in all its just a slightly irking thing now as after shooting it a bunch it all goes together better but not as smooth as my $600 stoeger which my girlfriend reminds me of. But Benelli rolls off the tongue a lot better in my opinion.

Sorry for the delay here are some photos. Also just been shooting it a lot and it goes on and off a bit easier but still a problem I would like to address.

Hello, So I bought a 20 gauge Monte last night and got it home and tried to put it together. The barrel slid into the receiver no problem and over the threaded end of the mag tube. Now the handguard was a tight feeling fit but slid on. The real problem I have is that there is an uneven gap between the threaded rod and the locking ring in the handguard. This is not allowing the spring from the fore end nut to slip past. Now if I squeeze the handguard closer to the barrel the spring fits down around the threads but then I have to squeeze hard enough I think the wood is going to snap and the rest of the cap sits far enough down to thread on. Also while turning the end cap it is eating into the wood because of alignment issues. I will try to get pictures tonight but has anyone else had a problem like this?
