cheyenne19 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I currently own a SBEII and an M4, and I'm considering adding an M2 to the mix. Are all M2 receivers drilled and tapped for a picatinny rail? I'd like to get the 21" field version, and add a 26" barrel for bird shooting. In the off season I'd like to run the shorter barrel and add some sort of sight to it. Another option would be to pick up a tactical version and run the 26" on it to bird hunt. How easily is the rear ghost ring sight removed? Any opinions on these options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truckcop Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 M2 field version is not d&t'd. I use a 21" M1 for skeet, sporting clays, SD pheasants, N. FL ducks, quail, and the occasional 3-gun match. That's why they make interchangable chokes. I think the 21" is the perfect length, but that's just me. I just got a 21" M2 but haven't gotten it outside yet. If you got the tactical M2 and added a rail/optic for off bird season, taking it off for birds, you would be taking off/putting back on the rail and rear ghost ring time and again. Since the receiver is aluminum, you run the risk of stripping the receiver threads in the process, creating a mess for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
