Tango two Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I'm curious how Remington will call the dual self-cleaning pistons their own. It is a patented design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhane71 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I am sure they changed things just enough to call the system their own. Or they copy someone else's and deal with the law suit years down the road and of course settle for pennies on the dollar. That is the American way.

steven765 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Does anyone else find the appearance of this just after the ATF study on the importability of shotguns.... suspicious? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crofton Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) Wonder if the tactical will use the same system as the Versa Max - 7 gas ports when shooting 2 3/4 and four ports when using 3". http://www.remington.com/pages/Versa-Max.aspx Edited August 10, 2011 by crofton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHat Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Doesn't excite me now that I no longer have 922r issues, but who can complain about another nice tactical shotgun hitting the market. Good luck to Remington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unobtanium Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Wow... Oh well, I bought my M4S90 somewhat as an investment as I figure it will get the ban-hammer in the next 5 years. Then it will be like an HKG3 or something. Worth way more than it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Fab Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I can tell you that while it's a direct copy of the M4 gas system, it's no M4. All the Versa Max's I have see I have put right back on the shelf. They are heavy and don't have anywhere near the fit and finish of a Benelli. Also, the actions are rough out of the box and while that may not affect function, it sure doesn't inspire confidence after spending what they want for them. A field version is only a couple hundred away from a nice Benelli and If I'm going to pay that much for a shotgun, I'd take the Benelli over e Remington any day. I have read lots of articles linked from Shotgunworld and most have been less than stellar. There are a couple where the reviewers basically came to the conclusion that the multiple gas port thing is just a gimmick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesa Tactical Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 There are a couple where the reviewers basically came to the conclusion that the multiple gas port thing is just a gimmick. Are they saying that about the Benelli M4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Fab Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Are they saying that about the Benelli M4? I guess I should clarify. The two reviews I read said that the multiple gas ports for the different size shells was a gimmick. Benelli's M4 seems to be able to shoot a multitude of 2 3/4" and 3" shells with only 2 gas ports.

Mesa Tactical Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 It might be the gimmick that allows them to get around the ARGO system patents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
