Furioso2112 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Hello, just signed up. Searched for this, found many similar titles but no answers in them. I have a brand-new current production SNTactical with collapsible stock. The collapsible stock remains a good 1/2" open when I attempt to fully collapse. I took grip off, saw the spring loaded detent near the receiver, on top of extension, thought the round plastic sleeve that slides up and down the extension on the stock might be hanging up on that. I depressed it with a pick tool, but still couldn't get stock fully collapsed. I need it to collapse fully to fit safely in the case I have for it. Thank you in advance for any tips. Picture shows it at max closing. It otherwise seems to function properly through entire range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 No experience with those, but maybe the receiver extension is hitting the buttpad? Many Benellis have a buttpad that had a recess in it to permit the receiver extension to enter the buttpad. You could probably remove the buttpad and see if that permits it to fully collapse.

Doge Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 That is as far as that will go. sounds like you have the removeable tube version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Doge would know all about this model! I’d listen to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furioso2112 Posted August 4, 2021 Author Share Posted August 4, 2021 I have nothing to compare it to but it seems the tube is removable. There is a nut at the receiver that holds the threaded coupling for the tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doge Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 You basically hafta swap out the tubes is sounds like. Easier to get a longer case. These are tougher to remove than the metal Benellis because you need to use high heat to swap the tubes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furioso2112 Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 Thanks for the replies, all. I suppose it's a bit surprising Benelli would sell these like this...it really seems shoddy workmanship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not 100% sure if that is the case, but its either that or you have the tube that is spaced out a little more. I have a Supernova from 2013 and a M3 from 2019 with this collapsible stock and it stores away fully. They can't remove the tube completely like shown above.

Furioso2112 Posted August 6, 2021 Author Share Posted August 6, 2021 Now I understand, yes - the stock on mine is removable by depressing the spring loaded detent...I realize now you indicate that some models don't feature that capability, and those models collapse fully. It also occurs to me now that I can remove the stock for transportation...glad I didn't start cutting foam to customize the case yet. Thanks again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
