crazyhair Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Is it worth the extra few hundred $ for the M2. The M2 has crio and comfortech and is .7lbs lighter I-12 holds an extra shell, recoil spring in the mag and is cheaper by a lot. but is it worth being cheap when your spending this kind of money.

M2 Tactical Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Get the M-2 and a magazine extension from Tom Knapp. site. It's probably a weapon you'll keep for many years to come and even hand down to your heirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fattire75 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 **** you can buy a M1 for $750 now. Buy one before they are all gone. Good luck. The Franchi I-12 is a new gun. I would not want to be a guinea pig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudhen Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I'm not overly impressed with the I-12 so far. I assembled 2 the other day and both had issues. Both had poorly installed beads, and both stocks were ugly and gray. A quick blast of CLP made the stocks black for now, but I wasn't impressed. I'm guessing the I-12 will take lots of breaking in and some fine tuning. After that, they should work fine. The I-12 comes with plain old Mobil chokes. I'll stick with Benelli thanks.... mudhen - CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
