71_Bronco Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Have an HK marked Benelli M3, with the full-length mag tube, and rifle sights. Proof marking dates it to 1992. I have 2 questions regarding this shotgun. 1.) If I wanted to replace the magazine spring, how do I do that? I looked it up online, and from what I found, the magazine tube is loc-tite into the receiver. I assume the only way is with heat (obviously careful not to melt the plastic portion of the fore-end / pump mechanism) 2.) On the Benelli Defense dot I T site (guessing Itally), they show some newer, defense models of the M3. A few show fore-ends that have a rail molded in on the very bottom, I assume for a light. How hard would it be to get one of those fore-ends into the states? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electric7 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) I had a similar question about obtaining parts from the newer LE model. I think the model is 11606. I found the magtube on one site yesterday. Would be nice to get to 10 rounds with an extension. Don't think you export gun parts, probably means you can't import either.

Vertigofirearms Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 The only way to remove the magazine tube is to heat it up. you will melt the plastic sleeve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
