RyanExtra Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 So I ordered a Briley full length CF tube. But it’s too short when the barrel is installed. I don’t know what’s going on here. Is the one shot extension required? Pic of gap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatbiker852 Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) Hmm.... Looks odd. Could they have sent you a tube for a different model or something? I think it's supposed to be full-length and shouldn't need an extension. (I sure hope so because I just ordered one....lol) Edited April 13, 2021 by fatbiker852 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Bet they sent you one for a different model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aznwhip Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Either a defect or they sent you the wrong one. Either way, contact them. Also, you were able to fit the spring restrictor in the tube? One I had was too wide to use that so spring was held down by the cap.

Or the Benelli OEM one didn't fit in the Briley tube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electric7 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Dang, same one from same guy on ebay. I have bought stuff before from allthingschokes before, definitely slow to ship. As long as the tube works, I will be ok with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electric7 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Allthingschokes is saying that it was a Briley factory defect and Briley will fix it. So, sounds like he is aware of it and there is a resolution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not believe they are affiliated with Briley. Here is what they told me. “Hi, the factory confirmed (AFTER ALL THE DELAY) that there was a length issue. Can we get another out with a call tag, or do you want a refund?” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03svt Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I’m sure it was the sellers fault one way or another, and blaming Briley is convenient. Sometimes trying to save a couple dollars costs more in the long run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electric7 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Allthingschokes on ebay seems to be a high volume Briley product retailer who offers the lowest prices. They have a website as well. He seems to be offering a resolution and is communicating. So, not sure what else a retailer can do more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he's offering some sort of resolution but, seems to me he should be dealing with his vendor (Briley), rather than passing it along so you can deal with it.

Yeah, maybe they improved it, but the one I had (and I know StrangerDanger had the same problem) was too wide for the OEM spring restrictor. If Briley didn't make an update and you bought from an ebay retailer.... might question their authenticity. I'd hope not, but coming from aftermarket automotive world... CF parts are the easiest and most prolific counterfeits out there. Especially with the length problem... that seems fairly obvious and knowing Briley, I can't see how that would have escaped their QC.

D'zaster Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I'm wondering if the short Briley CF tube is for the M4 Entry. Hope you will have it resolved soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 It looks too long to be an entry model. I don't think they make that model yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
