Any down side to a Nordic extension tube for an M2?

[Auggie89]

I have a new M2 field on the way. I should have it late this week. I am thinking about adding a Nordic components 3 or 7 round extension tube (I'd like the five rounder, but it seems to be sold out everywhere).

 

I have read a few vague comments about feeding problems with an extended mag tube.

 

Also, is there any noticeable or appreciable benefit to the Nordic oversized bolt handle? I am new to shotguns, so any suggestions or advice is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Auggie

There are a couple of post on here about Nordic Magazine extensions but I can't remember if they were on an M2. On Jan.16 of this year member "Kindanutz" put up a post about his Supernova and a Nordic ext. and seemed to be very satisfied with it and the company.

My M2 is new so don't have a long track record yet. Mine has the 21" barrel so bought the 5 extension tube. I bought direct from Nordic. They were out of stock at the time but delivery was quick. They are good folks and were helpful. I bought their low friction follower and a clamp. Looked at other manufacturers but Nordic seemed to be uniformly mentioned as the best. Also Benelli's new 3 Gun shotgun comes with Nordic extension. I consider that a pretty good endorsement.

There's a Benelli factory mag extension for the M2 on ebay, a +4 for $199. I don't know if this is a good deal or not.

I got a Nordic five round extension, mag tube clamp, low friction follower and an over-sized bolt handle in the mail today. Now I just need to get them installed. Thanks for the info.
