DV Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Am preparing to join the Benelli club and am not sure about something-since I`m going to have to order sight unseen want to be sure of this. Benelli defense shotguns, M2 Tactical: Stock number 11055 standard stock,open rifle sights, 5+1 magazine capacity Stock number 11027 ComforTech stock,open rifle sights, 3+1 magazine capacity First question is why the difference in magazine capacity? Second question is if the extra 2 rounds in the magazine in stock number 11055 is achieved by this shotgun shipping from the factory with a factory 2 shot extension added? I understand it is hard if not impossible to get factory mag extensions so want to be 100% satisfied with what I get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 It's pretty obvious here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DV Posted October 24, 2005 Author Share Posted October 24, 2005 Well, it isn`t that obvious because I don`t see anything that explains why difference in magazine capacity- only that 11055 holds 5+1 and 11027 holds 3+1. I also have the printed Benelli catalog and it is a mirror image of their website- no additional info given Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 You can't see the magazine extension?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
37G Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Yeah, there is a +2 Mag extension (the extra length on the tube under the barrel) which threads on to the existing tube. Apparently it is an accessory which can be ordered from Benelli, however you need a shop to order it (can't order from Benelli yourself.) Good luck!

DV Posted October 24, 2005 Author Share Posted October 24, 2005 You can't see the magazine extension?! Yes I can see it, I can also see the fine print in my printed catalog that says"magazine extension sold seperately" So that was what I was asking- which it seems 37G was able to answer- that it is the same shotgun it just has a factory extension added to it. I`m not familiar with Benelli guns so I thought this was the place to ask. I`m not an expert tucker301 so just chill out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkirsch Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 What happened to our moderators... I have not seen a post from them in a while.....????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 It was just pretty obvious that one model comes with the extension while the other does not. Or at least, that's the way I see it on the website. However, DV, in retrospect, my answers have been terse at times. My apologies. I've got a lot on my mind, and perhaps I should be elsewhere when my mind is elsewhere. bkirsch, While it's true no moderators have posted in a while, I can assure you that Benelli is well represented by others on this forum.

DV Posted October 24, 2005 Author Share Posted October 24, 2005 I appreciate the info that was shared with me- No Benelli dealers in my area stock the Defense series- that means that I`m going to have to prepay 100% to place an order and have no return option on a special order item. So I hope you can understand that I want to be 110% sure about what`s going to be in that long box when it comes.

tucker301 Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 wallhanger54, Was that a ComforTech or standard model? The website shows the ComforTech model without the extension and lists it as 3+1. M1014, He said he opened a box. He didn't say he bought one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallhanger54 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 This is listed as the 11027 M2 Tactical, open rifle sights, Comfort stock& forend and it comes with the 2 shot mag tube extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losman Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I have been allover to several Benelli dealers and I can't find a 11027 M2 Tactical. It's rumored that they are 90 days out from time of order. Does anybody have an idea why this is? I think this goes for and M2 style pump or semi. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losman Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I just ordered the 11027, and I based it on what the online catalog spec said, that all of the M2 tacticals especially the 11027 had a 5+1 capacity. Can somebody officially tell me what's correct? Thanks or, can I just buy an extension tube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
