crofton Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 New writeup with a couple photos from The Firearm Blog. http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2012/01/24/benellis-new-civilian-legal-m4/ Just thinking out-loud, about the firearmblog: how would ATF know if it was rebuilt in the USA by Benelli or HarryHomeOwner. What other parts did Benelli add to comply with 922r? All very confusing. Quote
alexcapone Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 Exactly what I was thinking, especially concerning the 922r compliant parrts. Far as I'm aware Benelli OEM parts are imported. Assembling stateside with OEM (imported) parts does not pass 922r muster. Benelli has to be using aftermarket US made components! I hope the collapsible stock is the same one they've been using. Anyone have any insight/thoughts? Quote
OrangeMarine Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 Maybe we can get a letter from benelli stating what they've done to make it 922r compliant. Quote
KB Fab Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 Assembling stateside with OEM (imported) parts does not pass 922r muster. Benelli has to be using aftermarket US made components! Could be FFT has a new customer for their trigger parts. Quote
OrangeMarine Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 They would have to post a list of imported parts like the ones for the older m4's. Quote
LeoAtrox Posted January 30, 2012 Author Posted January 30, 2012 Could be FFT has a new customer for their trigger parts. That would explain the coating on the FFT parts. Quote

MAYBE, JUST MAYBE this is why kip (cleefurd/carrier comp) has been so busy! Quote
DoingOK Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 and now the wait begins. I ordered this yesterday and Benelli Customer Service tells me it is about a 60 day wait. Quote
FastCote Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 and now the wait begins. I ordered this yesterday and Benelli Customer Service tells me it is about a 60 day wait. Where did you order yours? I asked four or five local places in town and have gotten exactly zero answers?! Quote
DoingOK Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Where did you order yours? I asked four or five local places in town and have gotten exactly zero answers?! I had asked around as well and didn't get much help (even Bud's online). Ended up going to a local gun shop (Wilcox in Newport News, Virginia) and he ordered one for me. He called me to make sure it was the correct part number 11711. Benelli says it is about 60 days until delivery. We'll see. Quote

I'd like to order now and have 60 days to cushion my bank account for the hit that its going to take for this purchase. Quote
