Guest cleefurd Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 lol! Great news Kip.....thanks for the update. Latest update as of July 26, 2012; Geissele is currently at Camp Perry for National Championships. A member of their staff stated the next batch of hammers for the Benelli M4 has been set in motion. *It is too soon to set an ETA for availability, but the greater point is they are coming, and still a viable component in Geissele's product line. *Note to self; No ETA is acceptable, assurance to build as able will do. Thank you Geissele. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dur66 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Any guesses as to how many people are waiting for Kip's stuff? D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Fab Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 They already are, and Geissele listened. Yes Geissele did. In fact Midway and Brownells are going to carry this part as well. I personally would buy mine from Kip, and I encourage everyone here to do so as well, but it speaks volumes that those two companies have the product currently listed. For those who need MORE of an explanation, it means that in addition to what Kip has coming, Brownells and Midway have ordered their respective quantities as well. Get it?

DoctorX Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Man, the wait on this part is taking a long time. Does Geissele typically keeps parts out of stock for this long? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLAWLS1 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Easy US made replacement part for 922r compliance, But why change it if the non US part is already legal? I can understand the Carrier extended tube, but not really understanding the US hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unobtanium Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 But why change it if the non US part is already legal? I can understand the Carrier extended tube, but not really understanding the US hammer. Because people want to be 922r legal if they can. With a PG stock, you're not 922r legal unless you have this, or another part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cleefurd Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Man, the wait on this part is taking a long time. Does Geissele typically keeps parts out of stock for this long? This will be their second run, a lot like their first run. Took time and while they will create a large batch, their AR trigger production dictates (and postpones) the timelines on Benelli hammers.

How come stores are allowed to sell them like this? Looks like I'll be buying one then.

FLAWLS1 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 That's great info Hookster! So what parts have you guys changed? Hammer, Charging handle/bolt, & what else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHat Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) If you're changing parts for 922r compliance you first need to to know what parts count. There are numerous threads with the list of them established by the BATFE. Most people with a non-adjustable stock change out: the mag tube, the follower inside it and the fore grip. IF you add a collapsible stock then you need to replace another foreign part with an american one. That's why the hammers are so popular. It's also why there isn't much interest in changing out other fire control group parts -- they don't matter for compliance purposes. Things like charging handles and bolt release button aren't parts per se in the 922r drill but add functionality in my view. I personally find a larger bolt release button/pad to be much more valuable that the charging handle but I have changed that too.
