oliviest Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Hi, i'm looking for a good quality extension tube and oversized charging handle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyjm84 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Good luck I've been looking for an extension tube too? All the ones I have found have already been sold. I was about to get 1 but the seller sold it to someone else since I asked too many questions. So if u find 1 don't ask questions just buy it blind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyjm84 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I've been thinking about getting that freedom fighters extension but haven't looked at the reviews yet. I've seen reviews for other extensions & pretty much all bad except for the benelli extension tube but can't find that 1. Going to check the FFT reviews right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paladinjme Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) The FFT extension is virtually identical to the Benelli factory. I will also say what others will, forget the extension and get the full length tube..Carrier Comp or FFT are both well made products.

paladinjme Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 What's the difference between the 2 besides the obvious ..between the 2 what? Extension and full length or FFT and CarrierComp? (i know...the answer will be 'yes')..LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyjm84 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Haha. The difference between the extension & full tube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paladinjme Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) The full length tube is more difficult to install (..still not hard) but it counts towards 922 compliance (assuming it is US made, as the 2 I have talked about are), whereas the extension does not. FL tube is a little more expensive. The extension is easily removable to go back to the factory configuration, although I'm not sure why anyone would want to.. There are *MANY* threads on this forum about the subjects of extensions, full length tubes and 922r Edited February 18, 2013 by paladinjme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saym14 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 carrier comp - its the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paladinjme Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I agree - as most anyone will who has seen both products - that the carriercomp tube has better finish than the FFT, although there is certainly no problem with the FFT tubes. They function perfectly and are decently finished, just not as well as CC. The downside is, if you order a FFT you will get it in 3 - 5 days...order a CC and you'll likely wait 2 months or more. You know what they say about 'good things..'...I'm waiting on one myself that I ordered in early Dec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sukhoi_fan Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 The downside is, if you order a FFT you will get it in 3 - 5 days I called FFT, they're backordered on FL mag tubes for a couple of months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paladinjme Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 OK...I stand corrected. Since the FFT is apparently on back order too, and they cost more, it's a no-brainer...get the CarrierComp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuraichieftan Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Howdy, not too sure if anyone mentioned it, but davesmetalworks has the full extension tube and the extension if you like. It is JUST like the Benelli factory tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paladinjme Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) I've never handled DMW's products, but the spelling errors and lack of attention to detail on their website is a little worrisome..."correct lenght spring"..."Benilli" (in the title bar @ the top)..."1 Peice M4.."..."instalation"..."Deep sevrations at the propper angle"...and on and on...SMH.. ..also, if the website pics are accurate, it is pretty clear that the profile of their extension is substantially different than the factory part.

M4Whore Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 oliviest, I went with the FFL 2 round extention and am 100% satisfied with it. Simple to install and you can always put the weapon back to the stock configuration.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuraichieftan Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 LOL, Yes you are right ... I forgot to mention that They run a horrible website; so they are not I.T. specialists, but I can tell you that they are indeed machinists, as the tube I got looks great, threads were also perfect. They don't make many things, but what they do make I have found the quality good. Gunbroker etc and comp wanted hundreds of dollars and 3 plus months waiting, I wanted mine to look factory with the proper color not titanium or stainless, and mine definitely does. The other thing is the price was the same as any of the extension tubes. My 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
