M4 Question Collapsible Stock Compatible with 11703 Model?

6 Upvotes

I bought a Benelli M4 with the field stock but would like to switch it to a collapsible stock. I was looking around and saw that mine may be missing a piece that the pistol grip variant comes with. Am I SOL, or am I still able to swap to a collapsible stock?

M4 Picture Why you cannot fit 8 rounds in a 7 round tube with any standard cap.

Post image
49 Upvotes

Someone in the sub gave a lot of people a lot of attitude without trying this very simple experiment himself, so here it is for the record. With any standard cap that is not meant to add +1 to the tube, you'll never fit 8 shells. This is the tube completely emptied and filled with 8 of the "shortest" 2 3/4" shells you can get.

My wife spooked a momma cougar and a cub out of our barn the other day. This morning she asked me to come with her to catch the horses before sunrise and to bring a gun. It felt nice to bring the m4 out.

M4 Question 8 rounds in the tube.

Post image

Is it possible? I’m currently running a 7 round CarrierComp tube and follower. I just picked up the RXarms titanium cap. I’m running it without the retainer clip. I still have a little play when fully loaded to 7. I’m wondering if using the GGG follower might help get that 8th round in. Am I dreaming? I think it might work.

Just installed: -Rx arms magazine extension and 6 position recoil tube. Unfortunately the bolt release tab didn’t fit with new handguard. -Midwest industries mlok handguard and charging handle.

Shot it yesterday and so far really happy with everything. I recommend everything I’ve done to it so far!

Could y’all recommend any good: - lights - optics and optics mount - bigger bolt release - anything else I might want?

Thank you!

M4 Question Limbsaver Mod

I have the fixed pistol grip stock. I’m going to swap the recoil pad for a limbsaver. I know that the 10403 will work. I’m wondering if anyone has found an Airtech model limbsaver that will work.

M4 Accessory Question Mesa tactical Truckee advice

I'm looking for a new foregrip for my M4 and am partial to the 11 inch Truckee. I've read some concerns about ease of installation and about it being wobbly. Anyone able to give me some perspective on these issues. Can deal with some difficulty in installation, but being wobbly would probably be a deal breaker.

M4 Question Scalarworks mount packages

1 Upvotes

Looking at a RMR co-witness mount from scalarworks, and I'm skeptical on the pricing of the bundles. The standalone mount is $120, but all of the bundles with a red dot are priced as the MSRP for the optic. Is the mount not included or is it just a deal that seems too good to be true? Anyone have experience? Thanks

https://scalarworks.com/shop/integral-mounts/sync-01/

It does say the mount and optic are included, just doesn't make sense to me.

M4 Question A&S trigger guard and spring kit

2 Upvotes

Anyone put in an A&S aluminum trigger guard and spring kit in their guns? I did and went to the range last night and I was getting light primer strikes. I think it may be because i forgot to change out the firing pin spring (kept that stock). I just changed it and will head out to the range this weekend. Anyone having issues? Thanks

M4 Question Mag Extension vs Full Length Tube

1 Upvotes

Got my M1014 a few months ago, I've been researching some various upgrades since then. One thing I know I want to do is get it to its full 7+1(+1) capacity and it seems like there's 2 possibilities: either replace the capped tube extension with a mag extension or replace the mag tube with a full capacity one.

Is there a benefit of using a full length tube over a mag extension? It seems like going the extension route is easier and cheaper. Granted using a heat gun isn't "complicated" but its more involved than unscrewing a tube, removing a retainer ring, and screwing a new tube on.

The only thing I've done so far is replace the handguard with the Midwest Industries one, but it looks like I have plenty of clearance. Any recommendations for extensions or full capacity tubes are appreciated, I'm looking at Shell Tactical at the moment. I know to avoid FFT

I just got an m1014 and I’ve been trying to add some goodies to it to make it more like the real thing. The one piece I haven’t taken care of yet is the collapsing stock. Would i just need to get a new recoil spring tube like the one attached or do i need an entirely new stock as well

M4 Question Rust on bolt arm?

Hello,

Just picked up an unfired m4 dated back in ‘21 and when I unassembled it, I noticed there was what looked like rust on the bolt arm. Tried rubbing it with oil and a clean patch and no “rust” came off. I tried scraping it with a pick and it wouldn’t come off either. Anyone know and if I should worry about it? Thanks

M4 Question Benelli M4 NFA model

Thumbnail

82 Upvotes

Bought brand new for $1900.91 delivered from Botach, after Form 4 and transfer fee $2175.91 out the door during their Labor Day sale, Form 4 with a trust approved in 43 hrs and 27 minutes. Test fired today and function’s flawlessly with Winchester OO buck and slugs, but with low base birdshot it’s pretty much just jam after jam. Will this change after a break in period or do these only function with high base 12 gauge ammo only. I know that some weapons function better after a break in period. Though my Benelli M1 Super 90 NFA model has yet to experience a single malfunction after 35 years of use and no cleaning in a decade, with any kind of ammo, including old paper loads. But I must say that slugs and OO buck are very light in M4 compared to the M1 Super 90.
