Tony Scarboni Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 I wonder why Benelli doesn't sell M4's in this configuration. It looks very mean. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious, but if done right it might look pretty cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bello Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 Good idea never thought of that! Wonder if i could plan up a schema to profile the holes to make it look great.? Guess i will start that in the works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangerDanger Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Have you experienced the handguards getting hot due to high round count? Back when my M4 was new, and I wanted to beat the crap out of it to make sure it wouldn't break again, I fired 400 rounds through it as fast as I could load it. Took between 12 & 15 minutes if I recall. The barrel was HOT, and would burn you. But it wasn't burning your forearms on a metal shaolin monk style pot, hot. Nor were the handguards melting off. They were probably about 120 degrees. Plus, I'd just douche the barrel if it got real hot during a competition and save the 5 ounce weight penalty.

StrangerDanger Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Careful when you poor water on the barrel when it's really hot. The water will boil off and run down with gravity. So if your hand is below the point of pouring, you're going to get sizzled. I dump water on my AR's as well. A little water won't hurt anything. It's usually beneficial when running a suppressor. Adding water will significantly increase the effectiveness of the suppressor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding water will significantly increase the effectiveness of the suppressor. Most companies that even rate their rifle suppressors for this only rate them for a few cc's of water. Be careful!

StrangerDanger Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 That's all that usually stays in anyway. It isn't meant to be sloshing back and forth inside the baffles. If it is, it will drain back into the barrel when you level the weapon or aim upwards. Kind of sucks. Certainly everyone should follow the guidelines established by the manufacturer though.
