StrangerDanger Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I don't think the Ashley Big dot fits on the Benelli. The Benelli's front sight is significantly different than the Ar15 series front sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cksh8me Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I don't know who said it but first but I'll steal it. This thread sounds like Barbie for guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xamoel Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 for you notice: optic on a HD shotgun gives you a quicker aiming, therefore a possible advantage over the offender. a tactical choke is used for breaching doors, and increasing accuracy using buckshot and slugs. and yes, this IS barbie for guns. if you don't like barbie, don't bother.

shuter Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Hookster, a couple questions if you don't mind: 1) is the KZ a one-piece tube that slips over the barrel, or does it have a bottom half that snaps in like factory and a top half that bolts to the bottom somehow? If so, does that create problems upon disassembly? 2) Regarding disassembly, do the screws clamping the top rail to the receiver have to be removed in order to disassemble/remove the handguard? Sorry for my ignorance. I think I'll be buying an M4 that's sitting on my dealer's rack, and I can already feel the need to customize! It's my understanding that the KZ forend, a U.S. follower and U.S. made 1 or 2 piece extension tube make it 922 compliant, right? Thanks!

needncash Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) Please dont take this the wrong way, but if you dont have the money to go buy the M4 why are you inquiring about expensive modification parts that you obviously cannot afford either. How about you purchase the M4, shoot a few hundred rounds through it and then think about mods and accessories. Just my $0.02.

shuter Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Thanks very much for the info and quick reply! I'm leaning toward one of the full length steel tubes. Which one is the best, in your opinion? Also, which follower? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Shuter, The KZ hanguard portion is 1 piece You don't need to remove the screws holding the hanguard portion to the receiver to remove the handguard but if you wanted to remove it you would need to remove the screws that hold the hanguard to the rail. You don't need to remove it to remove and replace the barrel though. For 922r, If you don't have a collapsable stock, I'd get a one piece US made mag tube (Carriercomp!) http://www.shop.carriercomp.com/ + US follower (Brownells!) http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/sid=44592/pid=20384/sku/Benelli_Follower__Alum__Red__12_3__Ga_ + US made forend (KZ or Surefire) I run the Surefire. Here's a pic One other option is to wait about two months for the Mesa Urbino PG replacement stock to come out. This would allow you to keep the OEM forend. I plan to get one and switch back to the OEM grips but I don't need the rails provided by the KZ or Surefire since I have everything mounted to my Sidearmor rails Later, Hookster Edited January 22, 2010 by Hookster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Kip's Carriercomp site he describes the Wolff spring as an exclusive spring made to their (Carriercomp's) specifications. They don't list a part #. I'd order it from Kip.

Steve1968LS2 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Anyone save Panabox's pictures of his modded KZ rail? I might try to duplicate this.. I now have access to a 5-axis mill.. could maybe set it up as a program. Would be easy to mod a group of them at that point. Then would only need to re-coat. I would like to see the pics though.

saym14 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Hey MeanGreen, Let us know what you think of the KZ when you get it (mine arrived within the week. Not bad for Botach) I think it's good to have a lot of opinions about products on the site so people have more to go on when their thinking about getting something. The follower that I got from Brownells (the one StrangerDanger recommended) isn't from DMW it actually lists Brownells as the manufacturer: http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=20384/Product/SHOTGUN_FOLLOWERS Take Care, Hookster exactly which part number did you get ? there are several for Benelli but its confusing wqhich one is for the M4?

The M-4 uses a different shape use 301-000-537 for the factory replacement part. Answered on 2/17/2010 by Customer Care from Brownells BTW - I tried to read all 15 pages of this thread. did you finally stay with the SF forearm ?

Hookster Posted October 15, 2010 Author Share Posted October 15, 2010 (edited) Yeah, that's the one I'm using and it works fine. The Brownells stock # in that answer brings up a Benelli manufactured follower and therefore not a compliance part which is why I chose the Brownells (made in USA) follower. Also...yes, I'm still using the Surefire M80 forend but plan to switch back to stock grips after I get a Mesa Urbino stock and use it as my 3rd compliance part.
