tduncan53 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I'd like to get a M2 with a 21 barrel for 3 gun and HD but have a longer barrel for hunting. Is this practical? Thanks Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bello Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 sure its practical! but you will be paying between 700-900 for just the new barrel size you pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tduncan53 Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Wouldn't these work ($400-$500) http://www.ableammo.com/catalog/benelli-80028-m2m1-tactical-rifle-sights-wfixed-choke-matte-p-104182.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tduncan53 Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 thought I saw them on line for $400 to $500? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truckcop Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Yes, you can get them for 4 to 5 hundred, depending on the barrel. Why bother. I shoot skeet, trap and 3-gun with my 21" M1. I use the same gun for ducks, quail, and pheasants. The only thing I do is, when required, remove the mag extension and change chokes if I feel like it. Usually, I just keep an improved cylinder choke in it and go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tduncan53 Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thanks haven't bird hunted yet but hope to soon. I imagine the longer barrel helps with sight radius but is it any more accurate otherwise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truckcop Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 No difference in accuracy and little, if any, difference in patterning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
