Pistol grip to standard conversion pics

[hoodfu]

I figured I'd post pictures and links to the parts necessary for going from a pistol grip Benelli M4 with 4 round magazine to a standard stock with 6 round magazine. I had to do a bunch of digging on here and other places to find the necessary ordering info, so in case anyone else wants to do this type of modification:

 

 

 

 

Stock, Synthetic, M4 Standard

SKU #: 301-000-588

Mfr #: BENELLI

Looks like this one is really +3 for the 2 3/4 shells. With the lifter trick, I'm able to fire 9 rounds in a row without reloading.

To each their own, glad you like it.

You know what - that looks great.

 

Feels great when you shoot it? That is the question.

 

I've not met a standard stock I like, yet.

 

Good luck my friend.

It's too bad that Benelli doesn't do a better job of matching the look of that standard stock to the forend. The checkered inlay makes it look like a mis-match of sorts. The standard stock on the Supernova is a better match with it's lines around the grip.

I was surprised at how well handling the gun still is. Having that pistol grip makes it a bit easier to load with the left hand while holding the grip with the right. This way it's a little more holding and tucking the butt under the armpit. I only did it to comply with my state's AWB, but being able to fire 9 shots in a row during a steel match or some such makes up for it.

Do you know what if any the change in stocks did to the drop at the heel & comb? Also who is the manufacture of the stock as Brownels is out of stock?

What state are you from?

They're Benelli stocks. I ordered one from Impact three weeks ago for $180 and got it yesterday.

 

After all the smoke I saw blown here about how hard it was to find one, I was surprised at how easy it was.

Bird_dog_3, it's a Benelli part, #81041. It says on the box: STOCK STD M1014/M4S90 RILSAN

 

I think these places don't keep them in stock on purpose, and only get them as people order them. They said 2-3 months for mine from brownells when it said out of stock on their site, but I got it in a week. Rocket, NY. Love the state, hate the restrictive laws.
