Walnut Furniture for Benelli M4 Just Dropped

[Ihrinwe]

I gave in and bought a set to throw in storage just in case I decide to change the furniture on one of m4s in the future. 

Appreciate everyone who installed and shared pictures.

No sling mount kind of sucks. Not a huge fan of the Mesa Tactical Urbino style attachment system for the stock. You had best be really careful tightening the bolt into the receiver extension. That snap ring will not prevent the stock screw from backing out during disassembly. Do not use thread locker on this bolt or you’re going to have a really bad time. The stock screw will come out of the receiver extension and be stuck on the end of the attachment bolt deep inside the wood stock. 
 

Not a huge fan of how they carved the handguards. They didn’t use the same piece to keep the grain of the wood consistent. 
 

Most Benelli owners would pay more for a better made product.

Does anyone know where the stock bolt with the correct threading can be obtained?

Any competent hardware store should have them. I got mine from an Ace Hardware.

Great, I thought so but wasn't sure if was a special, odd-ball thread pitch.

Thanks a ton! Exactly what I was looking for

[NCswamp13]

Other than the rear bolt being the wrong size, mine is perfect! Fits like a glove. I'll post pics when I get it locked down with a new bolt.

Pity, as much as I like the walnut stocks, having to scrape, sand, mill or drill for proper fitting should not be a hit or miss when purchased. Neither should the correct bolt or any other modification for that matter.  My 2¢. Alpha33 out.......

Looks great ! Does the stock make the gun heavier? Lots of luck with it. 

[NCswamp13]

It adds a little weight but it's worth it to me.

To be fair, I am sure these were designed for their Turkish M4 clone knockoff that just happen to be close enough to fit most Benelli M4's.

I bought FFT's American made handguards and they did not just drop in. They needed work to fit correctly.

This is what I used, can be bought at any competent hardware store. @Dogman

[Dogman]

Doesn’t this stock attach like a standard M4? Screws onto the receiver?

Yes, but the bolt provided with the set is slightly off from the M4 thread pattern. The set is made for and by Panzer for their clone. 
 

The screw and possibly a little fitting on the hand guards and it will work perfectly on your M4.

[Dogman]

So Benelli   is now selling factory wood for the M4???

 

 

[REZARF2]

The pic you posted says panzer and clone”… I do not think benelli is selling wood stocks for the m4. It’s a combat shotgun. 

you can buy the wood from several vendors
