M2 carrier

[Gregbart]

Hi,

I am looking at getting the M2 tactical.  I was wondering if it had the same carrier as the 3gun edition or the standard one.  Also, has anyone had an issue with the regular carrier catching your thumb?  I will be attending a 4 day shotgun course and won't have the actual gun in my possession until a week before I start the course.

Thanks,

Greg

FFT has a new extended version for the M2.

The "tactical" version has the standard carrier.  I probably went through 7 or 8 shotgun courses over the years with the standard carrier and never got  thumb bite during a course.  The only time I ever had an issue with catching my thumb was when I was just farting around on my on at the range.  Over the last few years I changed most of them out to Taran Tactical versions.  Just because.  If you use the proper technique, you shouldn't have any problem with the OEM version.

Thank you very much for the info.  I have a while until I go to the course.  So, I'll go ahead and pick up the TTI carrier.  If anyone can get their thumb caught in the gun, it'll be me.       After shooting thousands of rounds through my M1 Garand, I still break out in a cold sweat whenever I load up.
