bedford Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I have had the gun about a year and while shooting yesterday, the whole vent rib came off. Up near the front bead it looks it is just glued on. I expect more out of Benelli than this. I have 6 different models of Benelli's and I have not had a problem with any prior to this. Has anyone else experience this problem?

tucker301 Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 First one I've heard of. Have you called Benelli yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedford Posted July 26, 2007 Author Share Posted July 26, 2007 Yes, I called them and they have had this problem with other models. I hope they can get the gun back to me before my Argentina Dove Hunting trip in 3 weeks. I will be surprised! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I had a similar situation a couple of years ago. Ask them if they could ship you a replacement barrel, instead of re-attaching the rib. Offer to give them a credit card number to hold against the new barrel and then release it when you ship the broken one back. They may not go for it, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

TMAC Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Excellent idea Tucker, like you said its worth asking especially considering the circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
