Dirty Steve Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 Cleaning the R1 is more involved than I imagined before I purchased it. Never had a semi auto rifle before. I have a Super Black Eagle II. Obviously a very different platform. Do people remove the whole gas section from the receiver with the two allen head screws? Looked possibly easier then sliding the cylinder back and forth to clean in, under, and around it. How long with the O-ring last? Steve Quote
Diver75_98 Posted December 29, 2013 Posted December 29, 2013 Steve, I have posted an earlier thread asking some of these veteran Benelli users to possibly post a takedown video. I agree that the R1 is a different platform than other models of guns. Do you know if these posts are read by Benelli themselves? And if so, do they have any recommendations for a takedown and cleaning? It seems that there's not a whole lot of information on the internet regarding the R1. Jay Quote
Dirty Steve Posted February 19, 2014 Author Posted February 19, 2014 Diver75_98, I do not know if Benelli montors these threads. I would assume that would be good for business. All they would need is a yout tube video with explicit instructions on how to clean and what not to do. But, that is only my opinion. Steve Quote

Not sure what the hard part is of the break down and cleaning of R1. Feel free to ask away. Edited March 20, 2024 by KingChevy Quote
