WildAboutFowl Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Will a Benelli M2 barrel fit or work on a H&K Benelli M1 receiver? I am looking for a 18.75" barrel with ghost ring sights for my H&K Benelli M1 12ga. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Dunne Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 funny I am looking for a 26" barrel for my M1 hk tactical. I have swapped barrels between my M1 and my M2 so I know they work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truckcop Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) The M1 forend is slightly different. You'll either have to use a M2 forend or modify the M1's. The M2 barrel itself works just fine on a M1 receiver. "Search" function can be your friend.

M1 S90 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I've heard it the complete opposite truckcop, the M1 receiver won't take the M2 barrel without cutting and modification... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check the previous thread highlighted in the post just above, you will find that I have been using a M2 barrel on one of my M1 receivers for about two years now. Originally, I slightly modified the M1 forend (see the pictures) to fit the M2 barrel. Since then, I put a M2 forend on it so now I have a hybrid M1/M2. Thousands of skeet rounds have gone downrange (some of them even hit the birds) with absolutely no problems. Even with the slight differences in the barrels (as noted in the pictures) the combination works just fine. No modification to the barrel itself is necessary.

I have an m1 m2 and m4 and I have switched my barrels between both guns and I have a 28" m2 barrel that I had on my m1 for turkey hunting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
