kengps Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 If anyone has experience with putting lighter recoil springs in their M1 or M2 I could use some advice. Mine is a home defense gun. I would like to use the lighter recoiling Tactical shotshells. I know that is a problem with the Inertia recoil system of the Benelli. From what I understand the Benelli can handle the hottest loads as it comes from the factory. I have no need for 3" magnum round capability. Maybe at the most I would shoot some standard load 2 3/4" Slug rounds.If I should go to a lighter spring what would the limitations be as far as the heaviest load I can use without harm. Any specific spring recommendation would be appreciated also. Thanks. [ 02-14-2006, 08:58 PM: Message edited by: kengps ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdahoDucker Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 http://www.gunsprings.com is a good source for that kind of stuff. I don't know specifically about pros and cons of using a lighter spring but have heard they work. The description of their light Benelli spring says it's for the Super 90 but I think I've read here that it works in other models. Ask them first or maybe someone here know for sure.

ChrisP Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 80% of the rounds that I've put through my M2 tacitcal have been tactical light recoil/light recoil target rounds and I've never had a problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
